The hotel is just a short walk from Old Street tube station and only two stops from Euston/ Kings Cross so all the attractions are very accessible. The hotel its self is fairly basic but clean and comfortable. Our room was quite small for four of us (2 adults and 2 children 7 & 11) but no more than you'd... more

Just had a one night stay at the Holiday Inn Express in Southwark - its a typical HI Express with comfortable rooms, reasonable facilities for the money and a good breakfast included. We were able to check in early, although the friendly receptionist did explain that the sofa bed in our room would probably not have been made up, but... more

Based on the horrific experience I had at this hotel (Holiday Inn Express at London Heathrow Airport), I will never, ever stay at another Holiday Inn Express again. No air conditioning, rude, arrogant, and argumentative staff, and lack of sufficient staff in restaurant areas are but a few reasons why I will never use Holiday Inn Express again. Sleeping in... more

I and my friend stayed here for two nights from 1st May. We stayed here last year at about the same time. The hotel is comfortable and very clean. The reviewer who thought the beds were hard should visit Thailand... Breakfast was ample, being clearly indicated as 'Continental', so you can hardly expect a 'Full English'. There was no WiFi... more

The double rooms I had booked each had a sofa which was an addition to most hotels. I can't complain about the hotel, however I do feel that it's very expensive for what you get. If you shop around you can get a far better standard of hotel for the same sort of price. Location was really good, very easy... more

Stayed here for two nights after a week elsewhere in England. Just needed a place to sleep after a little sightseeing in London. This hotel fit the bill perfectly. Room was clean and comfortable. The continental breakfast was a plus, not great but enough to get going in the morning. Free wifi in the room was a bonus I hadn't... more

My wife and and I and 11 and 12 year old stayed at the Express By Holiday Inn London -- Southwark. We booked our room in a hotel that was represented as a 3 star hotel by a major on-line travel website. In my opinion, that rating is too high. The hotel has some definite pluses. The rooms are clean,... more

Stayed here for one night and it's a typical HIE - clean rooms, breakfast included, and helpful staff. Good location for everything on the South Bank, 5 minutes from the London eye, and a nice walk up to the Tower. Rooms are clean, airconditioned with tea / coffee and shower rooms (no baths). 5 minutes walk from Southwark tube. more

I chose this holiday inn as I knew Southwark well and it offered triple rooms, which suited our group (there were 3 of us). Unfortunately as young female travellers (aged 18-21) we were not treated with the respect we deserved. It's true what others are saying; staff are indeed rude. We were accosted coming in again (at 10pm mind, hardly... more
