Express by Holiday Inn London Wimbledon South

My partner and I stayed at this hotel for one night as we were attending a wedding nearby. We paid £66 for one night and I was really impressed. I was expecting a Travelodge type affair - really basic - but the room was nice, clean and modern. The bathroom was clean. The off-street parking, while £7 a day, was very good, with a secure swipe card system to get in and out. The staff were efficient and friendly. Overall I would definately recommend this hotel for a short stay, cheap and gets all the fundamental basics right. Even had a continental breakfast included!

I stayed here in September for 2 nights for the Davis Cup tennis at Wimbeldon.

Booked via the holiday inn website and got advanced rates of £64 & £73. Included in the rate was the standard continental style breakfast.

There were no real surprises at this hotel - standard holiday inn layout to room, rooms a little dated but according to literature in the room they are undergoing a refurbishment programme to be completed by end of November.

We had 2 slight issues - double room but only 1 set of towels provided and our key did not want to work on 2nd day. However both issues were resolved immediately when staff were contacted.

As others have mentioned there is no room service in this hotel (as with most holiday inn express) but they do have takeaway menus available and will call the takeaways free of charge to order for you and will call you when the food arrives.

All in all this was a reasonable price for the room we got, I would be reluctant to pay much more but it was location that really attracted us to this hotel as I did not want to travel too far to get to wimbledon. Also all of the staff that we encountered were polite and helpful - a definate positive!
