Holiday Inn Express London - Southwark

Our plane landed at Heathrow. We then took the Heathrow Express to Paddington station and another train to Blackfriars station. From there, it was an easy walk to the hotel. The hotel was walking distance to several sights including all bridges on the Thames. Loved their complementary breakfast which included eggs, sausage, coffee, danish, cereals, yogurts, etc. Exceeded our expectations!

Pros: Almost everything. The room was clean and quiet. The staff was wonderful, friendly, and helpful. The location was just a few hundred meters from the Blackfriars train station and bridge.

Cons: For for 5 nights' stay, the taxes were several hundred pounds.

Hotel is located well in close proximity to underground stations, and walking distance to the Thames. The staff is well-trained and helpful. The rooms and beds were clean and comfortable. The hot breakfast included scrambled eggs and sausage, as well as a wide selection of tasty items. A great value.

Pros: The staff was outstanding and helped us with reservations for a cab during Christmas day, directions to a restaurant and were generally very friendly.

The London-Southwark Express By Holiday Inn Hotel exceeded my expectations. The hotel was clean and well maintained and had a modern, sleek look. My room was spacious and bright and included free and easy to access internet. The bathroom was of good size and included a large shower with abundant hot water. The hotel lobby area was cheerful and spotless and was connected to the breakfast area which contained two large screen televisions and complimentary computers. A free, full breakfast of good quality was served each morning from 7-10 a.m.. I would definitely recommend the Express by Holiday Inn and will stay there again when I am in London.

Pros: The Express by Holiday Inn was clean and modern. The rooms were spacious and cheerful and well designed as were the public spaces. The room bathrooms were large and included an excellent shower with ample space and plenty of hot water.

Cons: I have no negative comments regarding this hotel.

Pros: sent a E Mail when I came home to say how happy we were at the hotel.

Pros: The staff were amazing. One of the staff (Charlie) helped a lot with suggestions for routes and places to visit. The staff were very friendly and very courteous. They made up for the smallness of the room we had. Also the location was excellent.

Cons: I would have liked a bureau to store clothes in.

The hotel was located within walking distance from Southwark train station. It was nicely decorated, wi-fi is complementary in the lobby only, pay in the room, but the lobby is nicely furnished and felt comfortable. Breakfast was good. The room had all the basic amenities you could need. It was on the small side but who spends a lot of time in the room on a vacation? The staff was great and helpful. There was a restaurant across the street open late after getting back late from a tour. Great to do take-away and eat in the lobby while catching up on emails. It worked very well for my trip! I would stay here again!

Pros: The staff was very helpful. Always willing to help,like hailing me a cab and helping me figure out the microwave.

Cons: Would have liked breakfast to be a little earlier for the day I had a really early tour, but everything else was great!
