We had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The customer service was truly exceptional from start to finish—everyone was warm, helpful, and ensured that everything was clearly explained and straightforward. Special mention goes to Chi, who provided outstanding service, explaining all the details with great clarity and professionalism. The hotel is situated in a lovely, calm, and quiet area. Even though it is a bit further from the city center, it is completely worth it, especially given how easy and convenient it is to travel via the Elizabeth Line. The breakfast was great as well—a very good English breakfast with a nice variety of options to choose from. I have wonderful memories of staying here and will gladly recommend this hotel to everyone!

It was a nice place to stay. I stayed for ~ 8 days and I was at least asked twice if the room is clean enough, which I highly appreciated.
A little pricey but again, I am a student and had to book this at the very last minute, so nothing bad on the property!

Staff so friendly! The location amazing! Replies before stay helpful! Room comfortable - slight damp smell and not opening windows hard but there is air con- was cosy. Loved it! Going to the 02- arena? Book here!
We was out all day until 2.30pmmand sign on room but not done. Also shouted to cleaner when knocked we would be 20mins. Put sign on door to say ready - but when back sign had been turned the opposite way- was it another guest or cleaner didn’t want to do it. The team on arrival Saturday amazing - this one seemed less happy on Saturday.
