Firstly, the customer service was excellent. Breakfast buffet was well organised, and the staff were friendly, and responsive to any reasonable requests. Drive to Woolwich for the Elizabeth line and O2 arena is less than 30 mins. Bluewater is also in the vicinity. We will definitely stay again!

Staff attitudes were bad, breakfast cold (meant to be hot) air conditioning in bedroom not working properly and with not checking in early as they said I could I was late for a wedding. To me I am English and they wanted to serve everyone else before us, plus said room was unavailable due to cleaners but when we checked out at 9 this morning, cleaners were already cleaning rooms, so this was the probably the same as yesterday

The staff there was misleading and I was told a range of different things by staff regarding the late checkout. I have stayed before and everything was fine but I spoke to the manager on this occasion (zenit) and she handled things terribly

Family visit
We have stayed here many times with our small dog as it is very close to our family when we visit. This time our room was a bit shabby, marks on the carpet and in need of a refurb. never have we had to use a toilet that was so close to the floor in our bathroom. The staff are lovely and make you very welcome. Not happy that you have to now pay £4 per night to leave your car in the hotel car park.

Lovely Hotel very quiet
Found the room not quite right for an accessible as too narrow of a gap one side of bed and toilet to loo which made it too awkward for my wife to use. Breakfast as usual was up to standard with plenty to chose from. Also thought it was free parking and ended up paying for two nights so be careful when using machine, wish it could be included in price and you just register your vehicle, sorry to say will not be using again as this was a family emergency.

Parking fines when parking at this Hotel. Be aware of this hotel. I knew I had to pay for parking to stay overnight here, fair enough. I did not pay right away on check in but after I had took my luggage to my room and relaxed for like an hour. Unbeknown to me I was issued a £100 fine for this which sent to my house two weeks after my stay, on top of the £12 I had paid to actually park my car overnight. Nice one. Never stay here again.
