Great value hotel

Advantages: Handy location, good rooms
Disadvantages: Not really any

I stayed at this Greenwich hotel this Christmas and was drawn to it because of its cheap price for quality rooms. I booked through hoteldirect.co.uk. The location of the hotel is excellent. Although the area around it is not very aesthetically pleasing, it is close to the O2 arena and a local retail park which was great for my holiday, yet it is far away from central London so not busy.The hotel is near the Blackwell Tunnel and I was anxious about ...
...was not the case. From the hotel you can see many great things such as the O2 and Canary Wharf, which produced some great shots on my camera. The staff were helpful but not intrusive on my visit. The rooms themselves are probably described as being quite basic. However I am used to traveling abroad to countries like Greece, so I thought the room was great. The beds were clean and comfortable, the bathroom complete with a power shower and W.C.. ...

Review of Express by Holiday Inn Express, London

No holiday for me at Holiday Inn

Advantages: Conveniently located, well priced, spotless and comfortable
Disadvantages: No proper restaurant

Holiday Inn - Wandsworth. 1 Trevor has upgraded. Those who know the scrimping and penny-watching that has been part of my character from Scottish schooldays, will know that my regular trips to London all target the cheapest accomodation available. Well, not quite the cheapest - I try to ensure they are flealess, clean and with a bed that accomodates my full frame. Usually Travelodge gets the vote, and I have ladled the praise to them in the past ...
...beat the local Travelodge on price, believe it or not. Well, it was a bit more complicated than that. Members of David Lloyd leisure clubs have (or had until the buy-out) access to members' benefits with other organisations. I don't usually pursue these as you are offered 10% discount, say, off of a full price - which is discounted by 20% everywhere else.! However, this time I discovered that the price offered for the Wandsworth Holiday Inn was ...

Review of Express By Holiday Inn Wandsworth - Battersea, London

Ideal for the 02

Advantages: close to 02, good value, comfortable
Disadvantages: run-down area, rushed staff

We stayed here in April while attending an event at the 02. The location is ideal for the O2 - just one stop away on the Jubilee line. It's great when you leave the O2 because most people are heading in the other direction! The rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff were polite, but seemed very rushed. When we asked for more pillows they never arrived. The breakfast was adequate and as expected. Plenty of cereals, fruit, toast and pastires ...
...the hotel, the area is quite run-down. I wouldn't have been comfortable walking from the tube station to the hotel in the dark on my own. Luckily it is only a short walk away. All in all it wasn't bad for the price, and was ideal as a base for attending events at the O2. ...

Review of Express By Holiday Inn London Royal Docks - Docklands, London

Highly recommended hotel

Advantages: Close to Tube Station/Bars/restaurants
Disadvantages: Lift too small

...2 friends stayed at The Kensington Court Hotel in Feb 2006, whilst on a weekend break to London. The hotel is in an ideal situation for travellers in the fashionable Earls Court.It is a 2 minute walk to the nearest tube station and has lots of pubs and restaurants nearby. The hotel itself was very clean and well presented.The rooms were very spacious with everything you need eg hairdryers, kettles, towels, tv etc.The en-suite bathroom had a shower ...
...3 nights, booking through Superbreak.According to the Kensington Court Hotel website they charge £65 for a double, £72 for a single and £65 for a twin.They also have triple and quad rooms, which cost about £115-£125 per night. I would definatly stay here again if i was visiting London. ...

Review of Kensington Court Hotel, London

Just down the road from the real Elizabeth's house

Advantages: Location, comfort, breakfast
Disadvantages: Lack of chic, American tourists

This is a hotel full of traditional English charm. It has military references, allusions to Royalty and a kind of generic Englishness about it that is not entirely fake. It is very conveniently locatednear Victoria, so access to many parts of London are within walking distance, and let's be honest, this is not the worst part of London by any means. The character of the hotel seems to attract Americans in their droves who must revel in the quaintness ...
...recently whilst visiting the Chelsea Flower Show, which was very close by. I took the liberty of inspecting their room, which had a nice view of the courtyard below. It was very comfortably furnished, included a safe, en-suite bathroom, tv... Apparently their breakfast was very substantial and negated the need for lunch. The hotel has a very user-friendly booking system on the net and an informative website. My booking cost 110 pounds for one night ...
