The hotel overall was disapointing! The rooms were old and needed a lick of paint. Some of the staff were too cold for my liking, however others - especially in the restaurant - were helpful.
I would not recommend this hotel in general - as there are better ones out there for the same money.

Stayed at the hotel on a Saturday and Sunday night in November 2006. We were on a gourmet weekend deal. The room was just a standard hotel room and the breakfast was quite pleasant. We had a gourmet dinner on the Sunday evening. I wouldn't exactly call it gourmet but it was a value for money deal when taken with the cost of the weekend. The hotel is also convenient for the station and shops in Croydon. We were charged for the buffet dinner on the Sunday night even though it was supposed to be included in our gourmet weekend deal but this was swiftly rectified when we pointed this out at the desk. We had originally considered staying at the Hilton in Croydon but a special discount rate we were offered there was 80 pounds per night with no breakfast. The Croydon Park deal was 190 pounds and included two nights, plus four full breakfasts, plus a gourmet buffet dinner for two.

I stayed here for one night in October 2006 on business and what a dump the whole place looks like it belongs in the early eighties and if I called the staff useless then that would be a complement to them. The rooms are very basic stay at the Jury's in instead its only 5 mins away

My wife and I stayed here for one night after visiting Wimbledon. Initially we quite surprised/impressed with the hotel, particularly after having visited and booked through their rather clumsy web site indicating a much smaller outfit. But it became much clearer.
Much larger than anticipated. Impressive looking lobby and public areas including the bar and the restaurant. Our room was pretty standard for business stay hotels and I bet that every room is just about identical. Everything was clean, tidy and in working order. The Air-con was effective albeit a little noisy. At £80 B&B per room it could only get worse - and it did.
The staff were all from Eastern or Central Europe - courteous and friendly but at times unintelligible and easily distracted. The toiletries in the room were cheap and the tea was truly awful, tasting of dried hay.
One of the previous reviewers mentions the excellent food at 'Oscars'. I think she must have reviewed the wrong hotel because the restaurant was called 'Whistlers' and the food - well.....we were on a package deal including the restaurant buffet, which again was done on the cheap. Three types of processed bits of fish including crabsticks, strange oily tasting pasta salad, completely tasteless mozzarella cheese and tomatoes, dried up cannelloni, cheap processed Chicken Kiev and largely tasteless gateauxs...there were other things but all of similar very poor quality. However, we were tired and ate quickly and went to bed.
I am not going into details of the breakfast but the quality was the same as the evening's buffet.
We didn't try the leisure club.
So, if you stay overnight go out for your evening meal. Croydon Town Centre is less than ten minutes walk away. By all means have breakfast but you don't want to eat too much of it.
