Perfect hotel for London trip

Excellent stay. Used as a base for Wembley concert and trip to London West End. Great location to get to everywhere we needed to go and Watford itself has plenty to do. Hotel was perfect for what we needed, staff were excellent and complementary breakfast was very good.

6/10 Good

1 night stay in Watford

The stat was good. Although the hotel could do with some renovation as it was looking very dated. The sink in the bathroom was broken and the ac was very noisy.

6/10 Good

Little problems but nice stay overall

The hotel is new-ish and in very nice condition. I experienced several small niggles during my stay including an inoperable safe, spoiled toiletries and confusion about the need for housekeeping. Although it took too long to correct these issues, management did correct them in the end and we had a reasonably good stay. The hotel is within an easy few minutes drive of Stonehenge and the charming little town of Salisbury. The on-site restaurant is pretty good and there are fast food options nearby as well.
Erick, 1-night trip

Overnight stay after Wembley concert

Great location, easy check in. Air con worked well as kept window closed overnight to reduce noise. Good breakfast. Rail link to Wembley Central worked perfectly and headed to London Euston easily the next day
Kaljit, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Decent

The hotel itself was nice, with a small modern breakfast and seating area. The room was rather small and a bit worn, but it was decent. It was generally a decent stay.

John, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great budget hotel

We spent very little time in the hotel as we were visiting family nearby. Nice hotel inside - somewhat complicated to find with the sat nav which takes you to the back and a not so great area. Reception staff were lovely. Room was spacious and the beds were comfy. Breakfast was nice but would have liked some more pastry options and better fruit choices given the price we paid for a Saturday night as it was bit low on options but what was there was good. We were just travelling locally but feel this would be a good base for outside of London and you could travel in.
Kirsty, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Not the best holiday inn express

Car park spaces were barely wide enough for a small car and guests were expected to pay £12 for the privilege of parking there. (The station car park a short walk away is a far better option) Even though the room was pre paid the hotel wanted a credit card as a Garrentee against damage because the hotel was booked through Hotels. Com. (I refused )
