Express By Holiday Inn London Limehouse

costruzione in cemento armato e mattoni rossi non rende bene dall'esterno qualita servizio che offre all'interno. stanze grandi con arredamento nuovo, moderno, minimal, funzionale e ben conservato. molto pulite. receptionists un po sulle loro (niente buongiorno/buonasera) ma molto disponibili ed esaurienti a richieste clienti. una sola postazione internet e a pagamento! colazione semplice ma abbondante (ma stile mediterraneo,niente uova strapazzate e bacon!). raggiungibile in pochi minuti di treno dalla fermata di tower hill (pressi tower bridge e tower of london). nel complesso molto buono (se non si intende tornarci spesso durante giornata perche non proprio a due passi dal cuore di londra).

For a basic hotel - it's a Holiday Inn, after all - I have to say Holiday Express at Limehouse really does deliver. I stayed in Room 313 and it was clean, warm and comfortable, had all necessary amenities (coffee-making facilities, mugs, hairdryer, TV, writing desk, good desklight) and even a couch. The staff were all great - helpful, friendly, and offered me free internet on their own computer when the one in the lobby was not working. The continental breakfast was also good and very comprehensive - rolls, croissants, toast, yoghurts, fruit, cheese and cereals. My point is that this is a truly affordable hotel in London which gives you a truly pleasant stay. So much of London charge you the sky and offer you so little; this hotel is definitely a different experience. I just hope they keep it affordable and do not raise the prices too much!

Superb value for money. Hotel is located a 2 min walk from the DLR at Limehouse, which is midway between the city and Canary Wharf.

The hotel is the standard Express fare, clean, comfortable, reasonably spacious and with free continental breakfast included in the rate.

Was allocated a room on the 2nd floor, in a wing away from the main road so hardly heard a thing during the 4 nights I slept here.

Staff are friendly, and as an added bonus as a priority club member, you benefit from speedy check in and a complimentary newspaper each morning.

The only downside is perhaps the lack of dining options in the area, but Canary Wharf is only 2 stops away and so is the City, so options aplenty here.

Excellent value for money!!
