Good location for what we wanted to do in London. Breakfast was great. However, when we booked we were not informed of the renovations and scaffolding in place with alternative reception. Bar service was shocking. Reception to precedence over anyone wanting a drink at the bar; even though some staff not serving customers. Plus other guests happy to jump the queue given half a chance. I had two times ten minutes waits with some staff not doing customer focused work.

Very happy with our stay at the Holiday inn Express Limehouse. We accidentally booked a twin room instead of a double. When checking in, the receptionist changed our room to a double with no problems. …

3 star hotel good enough for bed and breakfast. I stayed for 1 week that makes is little boring to eat same breakfast for 7 days. Absolutely no variety.Housekeeping missed servicing my room twice in 7 days. There was lot of construction work going on in neighboring plot.Good thing about this hotel is location - it is only 5 mins walk to lime house dlr station also same distance for bus stop to go to central london.

I stayed for a few days and, to be honest, I have nothing to complain about.- The staff is very friendly and lovely!- The location is good, nearby multiple bus stations and convenience stores. However, it's worth noting that at night, you might hear a police car passing by every 10 to 15 minutes. But, having walked around every night, everyone I met was cool.- The room was clean, and the cleaning service did an awesome job in our room.For my trip, the hotel stay was perfect—10/10.

Location is great once you get your bearings, trains & buses & walking. Room serviced everyday clean towels beds made vacuumed most days could do with a bit of dusting but could have something to do with renovation of the exterior walls. Breakfasts very good could do with a bit of change. After being here 11 nights the hasn’t been any change eg pan cakes, waffles, fried eggs instead of scrambled. Also a small fridge in room would be good to store medication like insulin & have a few snacks to eat during day etc.

Not a brilliant location but pretty close I'm just use to staying central. Can't fault the hotel it's in yhe process of being renovated everywhere and everything new and clean .rooms vert goo all new beds and bathroom. Breakfast we'll excellent full English Not just a continental as I presumed.slight pickup when checking in I booked 2 rooms in same name but wad given 2 rooms on different landings. Would have thought they would have been together. I complained about thus and a young lady called Joanna completely agreed but it was already allocated she did every thing she could to solve the situation very lovely very nice highly rated member of staff .5 stars for this young lady ...if carlsberg made receptionist

This is hotel is under renovation and all facade is covered with scaffolding and plastic blinds, makes all windows not usable. They did not mention it anywhere, if I knew it I would not have been booked this place. I asked the reception to change my room to be able to have a window view but they said your room is pre-assigned. Beds were not comfortable and with my family we did have a good experience staying in this hotel.
