Wonderful breakfast with great service and staff. A shout out to Anjali, Shanel, Sharven, Richard and Henry who were very helpful and professional! We stayed there for five nights and found the location perfect with a number of nearby restaurants and a super close tube station. The rooms are well appointed. However the shower drain was not good and the shower floor design so flawed that the only way to avoid an overflow was to interrupt the shower every minute or two to allow the water to drain.

I booked a Premier Queen room 27m-32m. On arrival at the property I was optomistic as it's in a great location and the building is beautiful. We were allocated a room in the basement and on entry into the room I was really disappointed by how small it was. The bathroom was very tired, the door was in a terrible state with damage due to damp, and there were no hooks or a towel rail so nowhere to hang wet towels. Due to the location of the room, there was a lot of noise due to being near a staff area and looked out onto the area where the bins are located. I have stayed in many Indigo properties and I was really disappointed with this stay.

So this was my second time staying here within one week. I went to Liverpool for three days in between the two states. Come back the gentleman at the desk actually remembered me and yet assigned me to a room that I can only describe as a dungeon. Literally underground with a window that looked out into an interior courtyard where there was scaffolding. Had to step up into the bathroom. It was awful. The bed was like a rock. The pillows were worse and it was to say the least not a good deal. London is one of those cities with thousands and thousands of options so this will not be one that I will choose again.

It’s a decent place in a nice location. Very close to a tube station and some dining options. The hotel is a little bit rundown. The rooms are very small and not that well designed but we will stay there again.

The room was small and cramped and there was a TV installed on a table at the foot of the bed making the room even more cramped. The AC wasn't working properly in my room and there was a large fan taking up even more space. The hotel felt run down too. So disappointing. I loved this hotel 2 years ago. I won't return.

Enjoyable stay, comfortable friendly hotel

Really enjoyable stay. Friendly and pleasant staff. Helpful. Great breakfast, freshly cooked. Good quality and good choice. Great coffee. Rooms newly refurbished. Comfortable beds, water in mini fridge, slippers and dressing gowns. Bathroom lacking shelf space, shower could be a bit more powerful and design allows some water on ground outside shower area. Some grout not cleaned off tiles but this is easily fixed. Light in parts of room a bit too low so would not be conducive if needed for applying make up etc. due to location of mirror. Tea, coffee and biscuits supplied. Quiet hotel, lots of bars, restaurants within easy reach and underground station around the corner. Bottle beer at bar £7 for small bottle a tad on the expensive side. Overall would highly recommend.

Great place to stay

Have stayed at other Indigo hotels. This one is undergoing upgrades, but still was excellent. Lovely rooms (we had a 2 room suite), outstanding staff, great kitchen and breakfast, bar is open late, and the location was perfect. 1 block to tube station. Next to the Olympia (short Uber ride of 10 mins) where I was attending the Book Fair, and great restaurants within 10 minute walk radius.....Indian, Pubs, Tai, Italian.....take your pick..
