Deplorable condition and service Forest Gate Hotel

The room was a twin bedded room. The size of the room was only barely enough to accommodate the two beds. The walls had plaster missing, the walls were stained and extensively dirty. the bed side table had two draws, the bottom draw had no base so could see through to the dirty carpet. The wardrobe should be replaced. It leans to the side and wobbles as you open the damaged doors. It too had a panel missing from the back. The showers and toilets were grubby and antiquated, both were in need of immediate refurbishment, as indeed so does the whole hotel side of the premisses. The booking came with breakfast, served at 07:45. At that time there were no members of staff on the entire premisses, hence breakfast was not available. To summarise, the hotel side of this business needs a total refurbishment. I would dissuade anyone booking a room there. It is not as described on the Hotels website.

Very helpful staff that made check in a pleasure...for once. Although the accommodation was basic it was fit for purpose & clean. An excellent cooked breakfast was included which was duly gobbled up before departing. Would certainly stay here again.

If you just need to get your head down for the night then it will do. Definitely needs a lick of paint and a good clean up.

Do not stay unless you are desperate. It wasn’t even that reasonable. The rooms are dirty No heat no laundry as advertised no hair dryer as advertised. No breakfast because of some leak in the kitchen Place is old and dilapidated. Rooms are musty. It’s a shared bathroom with everyone who stays at the facility. Just don’t waste your money and time. It’s a 15 minute walk to get the train

For budget London accommodation I was impressed with the Forest Gate Hotel. Pros: quiet location, easy walking distance to the tube (Olympic park 2stops away), affordable (for London prices), clean sheets, comfy bed, fridge, microwave, tea and coffee in room. Fire doors and a solid door lock. Shared toilet and showers but they are clean enough, a decent size and will good locks on the door. Staff are friendly and breakfast was simple but a bonus the next day, and was cooked fresh. Cons: it's an old building and it isn't freshly painted and high spec. If you're looking for luxury, you'll have to pay the cost. But it doesn't detract from this being a solid option for somewhere to sleep well for a couple of nights. I'd recommend it here and I'd stay again.

Not what i expected

Maybe did not read/check info that well, but espresso machine does not work in the bar, shared showers with questionable lighting and hot water. Very noisy rusty old fridge in room.
