Never Again I chose this hotel because of its strategic location. After check in , they kindly put me in the second floor facing the Old Street. All through the night, a Friday night, I could hear groups of drunken people passing by and almost seemed like I was at the middle of an International Drunken Festival. In addition to... more

It was hard to find a single room in a London Hotel for 2 adults, & 2 older teenagers, but we had a double bed & double fold out couch & it worked for us.. Room was very clean & small by US standards,but ok size. Staff very helpful. Continental brkfast convenient, but same thing every day. Lobby had AC... more

We booked this trip through Hotwire, as a 3-star hotel in the financial district. It is neither. The restaurant is like a high school cafeteria. It is way up north - nearest tube stop is Old Street. Rooms are tiny - there are no dressers or drawers at all. It is in a slumlike area. Graffiti on neighboring buildings. more

Twin room for £80 per night including breakfast in zone 1 - can't say fairer than that! The hotel is located a 5 minute walk from Old Street on the Northern Line and the area was noisy at night although you could hardly hear anything with the windows shut. So it would have been good to have had air con!... more

I stayed here before and it was tired, the reception, bar and breakfast area have been transformed - it made all the difference. Breakfast was better than most, location was great and we were able to travel easily to the local areas. The rooms could do with an update, to keep in line with the pubic areas. The staff were... more

noisy, souless, basic hotel, staff ok, was given wrong time for breakfast, and on arrival was practically attacked for asking for bread! in a shabby part of london, wouldnt stay again, far nicer hotels in lodon for the £85 a night that we spent. more

When so many hoiday inn express are well run and well maintained, this one is very sad and tired. The general manager's name is missing from behind the reception desk and perhaps they are hiding from the guests? The rooms whilst clean are well worn. The hotel is certainly not value for money and at over £100 per night is... more

OK - the Holiday Inn Express is clearly a hotel aimed at Business Travellers so you can't expect the normal frills one would expect with a holiday hotel. 'Functional' is a very apt word for this hotel. The room was clean, tidy and the bed was OK, but it would have been nice to have a drawer to put things... more
