I stayed here with my family last weekend, what a great hotel! We arrived very early but the reception team were so kind to give us our room early.||The rooms are a good size, especially when you are travelling with kids. …

My stay at Holiday Inn Express was very enjoyable! The continental breakfast had a good variety, including a few hot items like bacon and eggs, which was perfect for a quick start to the day. The location was also really convenient, close to everything I needed. Shaz was incredibly helpful and friendly, always there to assist with a smile and make sure everything was going smoothly. I’ll definitely consider staying here again!

1307hrs GMT, 17/10/2024I visited this branch of Holiday Inn as I was looking for a place to fill out some job applications that was quiet and supplied hot drinks. I was pleasantly surprised by the décor inside of the hotel. It was modern, warm and inviting. At the front desk I was nicely greeted by a young woman called Sophie. She made me feel comfortable despite not wanting to use their services to hire a room.I explained that I wanted to sit and use my laptop and would order a coffee, Sophie assured me that it wasn’t compulsory, and that I was welcome. This put me at ease because I would normally try to avert ill-will from the owners of a premises from thinking I would take advantage of their amenities and not buy anything. Either way, I still did buy hot drinks during my stay out of courtesy.Sophie’s customer service during our interactions was exemplary and she is an asset to the company. I would encourage anyone to come by and use the services here. It’s very good!David

I had a really enjoyable stay at the hotel. The staff are the main attraction as they are rather brilliant. The bed was soft, I had plenty of pillows and I got myself come complementary toothpaste. The bar had some really good beers as well. The breakfast was ok.

Had a book to stay with my hubby, and the staff were lovely and knowledgeable. We went for dinner at the restaurant next door and got 10% off our meal as we were staying at the hotel.The next day, the maid came into our room at 9 am and woke us. We had been out till 4am with friends so as you can imagine I was nit happy.We went down for breakfast, and it wasn't great.We one tnack to our room and checkout was 12, but again, the maid started to knock on our door at 11.30am. I was in the shower and told her to go away.It was disappointing that the maid did this as we were fully aware of checkout timeOther than that the room was nice and the hotel was very clean

Me and two friends were travelling across Europe and we stayed at the Holiday Inn Royal Docks to go to a concert at the O2. We were quite impressed by the size of the rooms, service and the breakfast was great! The staff was also very helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend it if you are staying in London.

Absolutely terrible experience. The receptionists were rude and unhelpful. We were three people and asked for an extra blanket in advance—was told "ok," but only two were provided. After asking at reception, we were promised one but still didn't get it so had to ask again. By 10pm, the late receptionist finally brought some random bed linen, clearly not understanding what a blanket is. The room was in awful condition: mould in the bathroom, and the sofa bed was so uncomfortable—just springs, impossible to sleep on. The worst part was the noise: at 5am, there were massive lorries and staff unloading right outside, so we couldn’t sleep at all. Staff were smoking and talking under our window at night too. Breakfast was disgusting—powdered scrambled eggs and not a single vegetable offered. Always queues at reception, only one person working whilst others seem to be walking around or on the phone.May be cheaper than other London hotels, but it was still overpriced for what we got. Absolutely avoid!

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a fantastic experience. SHAZ and SOPHIE at the reception were incredibly nice and helpful, making the check-in process smooth and welcoming. The rooms are clean, spacious, and very well maintained. The view from the room was absolutely stunning, adding to the overall comfort of my stay. I would highly recommend this hotel to others and will definitely be returning!
