Top Epping Forest Hotel Reviews

Best Western Greater London Hotel

6/10 Okay

"The room was very tinny. No AC, no fridge, the safe did not work. The window was very small. The weather was very hot and with that small table fan they provided could not get the job done. I spent most of my time outside as the room felt like I was in a prison."

Signature Hotel London

8/10 Good

"Great Location, Wonderful layout and good level of customer service. However, I found stains galore in the room and on the towels. The shower fittings were hanging off the wall, when notified the staff member said he would check it out but when I returned it was pretty much the same. Barely any sleep due to neighbouring rooms being loud until early hours and doors slamming shut. The key card for the room only ever worked on the 3rd time of trying. Great Air Conditioning unit however 👍"

Britannia Inn Hotel

2/10 Terrible

"The radiator had pink dye down it, which was also found on the "clean and fresh" towels. I was asked to pay a £100 sercurity fee upon my arrival as failure to do so was going to prevent me checking in. This was not stated on the website at all when I booked my stay. Reception staff were adamant that it was on the website but no matter how many times I told them they were having none of it. Even the guests checking in after me were shocked so there's proof it wasn't just a careless mistake and misunderstanding of my own. There is actually 4 blocks to the hotel each of which has a different door posing a security risk!! Found a slug in my bathroom and crack in the freshold slabs of the bathroom. There was a dent in the floorboards under the carpet near my bedside table which could have caused me to injure my ankle and/or foot. The view from my window was someone elses back garden that could be accessed by others (so much for privacy when my room and bathroom window is literally in someone's garden). I would never ever stay here again. You get one pillow that you have to fold to get a decent night sleep. The duvet is as thin as anything. Beds are hard. Carpet is outdated. Don't stay here I don't recommend unless your desperate and beware they ask for a 100 pound sercurity fee upon arrival and you get this back 3 to 7 days after checkout which I'm yet to see if I even get back. Appalled is an understatement."

Ridings at Theobalds Park

2/10 Terrible

"Bizarre and appalling. Never stayed anywhere like it, and that's not a good thing. Bizarre reception area that looks like it was done in the 70's, but they forgot to lay the carpet. Our room faced the car park so had the floodlights from the car park illuminating our room all night. The window only opened a fraction which wasn't enough to keep us cool. They kindly provided 2 tower fans to keep us cool, but they were so old they sounded like a pair of machine guns all night. Nice stains on the carpet. And a "parrot stand" in the corner???? The bathroom? The old tiles were painted green but they hadn't painted all the way to the top. Mold on the sealant and filthy everywhere. To be fair the staff were aware of the "issues" and said that the whole hotel is due to be refurbished. But £140 including breakfast did not reflect this fact. The whole thing was totally bizarre and I felt like I'd been taken advantage of."

Best Western London Ilford Hotel

6/10 Okay

"Our room was very small for 2 people..only 1 foot gap at each side of the bed and approximately 2 foot at the bottom between the bed and a dressing table, shower tray was still unclean. Paid for breakfast but didn't realise they didn't serve bacon or any pork in general which for a Best Western in the capital of what is British surprised us..it should of been an option at least. Everything else..the comfort was good, the parking was convenient, it was quiet and all the staff that we met were absolutely lovely and couldn't of been more helpful so 5 star for them but 3 star for the hotel from us."

The Harlow Hotel By AccorHotels

6/10 Okay

"I have stayed at this hotel a number of times, it offers itself to be a comfortable hotel for affordable prices. The rooms are always clean and the beds are comfortable. However the general maintenance of the room was poor, (cracks and dents in the wall). Also there was an issue with the plumbing, either an air bubble or too much pressure as the taps would groan and open every 10 minutes or so between 9pm and 11pm."
