Absolutely amazing, I have never experienced a hotel like this. First off, the rooms are VERY clean, it's visible that they get deep cleaned daily. We booked in room 206 and 207, there was a working big TV in every room and the hotel is located next to a church and school. The walls are thick, making it soundproof. It was nice and quiet. We got amazing service, the guy at the front desk was very interactive and nice. The breakfast was phenomenal and the lady working there was nice. I 100% recommend this hotel!

The Ilford Grand Hotel offers excellent value for money. The reception staff are always pleasant and ready to resolve the slightest problem or answer the slightest question. I asked for 2 extra pillows at 9 p.m. and got them right away. The breakfast is adequate (cereals, sandwich bread, jam, brioche, fruit, yogurt, milk, coffee), the room is not huge, just what you need with a large bathroom and modern shower. Large smart TV and good quality wifi. No safe but no problems to report. Well located hotel if you are coming from Stansted Airport (no need to cross London). In addition, the hotel is located 250 m from the "Queen Elisabeth" Metro line (recent line with a modern metro ram) which allows you to reach the center of London quickly without a connection. It is certain that there are hotels offering more service and choice at breakfast, but they are much more expensive. I don't regret having stayed there.

I picked it up by mistake, and once there I didn't regret picking it up. The boy who greeted us as soon as we arrived and when we said goodbye was super friendly, very understandable and always helping us with everything we needed with a smile, that alone is something to be appreciated. Kell was his name or something like that. Thanks if you read it.As for the room, quite good, the only thing missing is a hairdryer. Comfortable beds and good location, about 8 tube stops from central London.I didn't really like the neighborhood as such, because it seemed a little unsafe after a certain hour, but we didn't have any problems.Thank you for making our stay easier.

Friendly staff, room is clean and with a good shower. Ilford isn't a great location however the hotel is very close to the Elizabeth line and for working and traveling the hotel is very ideal and I would recommend it if you want to stay outside of central London.

The hotel is amazing for the price. Short walk to Ilford Elizabeth line, I went to work in liverpool street in about 20 minutes. The area has loads of nice kebab places. It's unbeatable value.
