Needs a little investment

Generally the public areas are tired as is the furniture in the rooms, other than the important thing the bed which was super comfortable. The restaurant was friendly and they dealt very well with the corked bottle of wine we were served .. although we think it got sent to another table, the Dark and Stormy cocktails were excellent. The rooms were well priced the food over priced but it's London. A little investment would see a 4* review.

6/10 Good

Luckily just an overnight stay.

Very old fashioned and extremely expensive. £7 for a bag of popcorn, £5 for a can of coke. The reception has had a refurb in the last 30 years, but none of the rooms have. Food in the restaurant was ok. On a par with Wetherspoons. Overlooking the airport landing strip though, so something to look at.

Normal service

Enjoyable stay as always, only issue is service at the bar slow as only one person serving and dealing with food orders ,which made service slow, need to sort that out

Not so good.

Hotel room looked a bit tired. No lifts making it difficult to access rooms if you had cases. Overnight parking too expensive.
