A fun ovrnight in Stratford

An amazing hotel. Very clean and well maintained with lots of intersting touches such as the quotes by each door. Excellent facilities in the room which was very comfortable and very clean and tidy. Staff were very polite and helpful and the food was really good. We would not hesitate to stay here again.

Beautiful cosy room with air conditioning working but the plumbing in the bathroom needs fixing. The hot tap has a very loud rumble and the shower takes ages to drain, I was worried it was gonna overflow out onto the floor

Not one of the best for the price to be fair 🙃

Check in polite but slow . Room very end of hotel , smallest room we have stayed in. One bath towel for two . Put pillows by door to stop light under . Noisy as back of building . Nice shower . Flies on fruit in restaurant breakfast buffet. Informed lady and told they have a problem with flies in the heat ? So cover your food might help like they do abroad ? Poached eggs very snotty, can’t eat . Never asked if we enjoyed our stay or food or anything or if everything was ok. Bar man nice and friendly. Topped up water bottle for me. Left my small thin top in wardrobe. Called them but Policy was £6 delivery fee as Royal Mail pricing ! Would only cost £2 at most to send it ! Didn’t agree iso asked them to give it to charity ! Great service guys .. not
