Had an excellent stay. The facilities and room size plus the price, 10 mins from the city center of London was well worth it. Staff were friendly and helpful. Will definitely be using this hotel again.

We liked that the suite room has lots of space, and it's as if it has two rooms and it has 2 bathrooms. The extra space and available storage closets was great too. Loved that the shower was walk in, every other hotel we stayed at had a high tub to get in. Only thing to keep in mind is the hotel is far from everything, but the train station is like a 3 minute walk.

Good hotel. Excellent for Excel
Stylish, clean and quiet room with a large bed. Liked the room layout and utilities. Wish we could turn the light off in the tea/coffee area as this affected our sleep a bit. Internet TV and room wi-fi did not work for us.

Clean , neat hotel The only downside is the staff at reception could have been more friendly. We had to ask for help to take our luggage. If we have not asked, the staff would not care as they were just looking at us. Customer service side was lacking. However the lads that helped us to get our luggage downstairs ( not front desk) were very helpful and friendly

Pool open late
This hotel was great! The indoor swimming pool stays open until 11 pm and they provide robes for the pool upon request. The pool area is nice and warm. The hotel and room was clean. I wish it was closer to Heathrow though. It is right at the District Line, so it is conveniently located for the tube.

Good stay on the whole.
Good stay only thing that could have been better was breakfast could have been hotter, toaster in wrong position as if you just wanted toast had to wait in queue. Also very thin bread for toast. No cranberry juice.
