Great location for ABBA voyage & excellent service
The male receptionist who checked us in yesterday (we arrived around 5) and who then took our order for dinner later on was really impressive, so professional and friendly - I didn't catch his name but he should definitely be commended. All of the waiting staff were also very good. We picked the hotel purely for its location but were very pleased indeed with the hotel experience overall having not stayed at a Holiday Inn Express for many years. Thank you.

Near tube and copper box arena all within walking distance. Easy check in and happy and cheerful staff. Unfortunately there was no evening meal service other than pizza and panini. Bar stayed open till 1 am which was handy if you were late back from a show.
