Top Stansted Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Brentwood M25, Jct. 28 by IHG

Holiday Inn Brentwood M25, Jct. 28 by IHG

8/10 Good
"The hotel was spotless, the reception staff especially Alice (hopefully that's correct) were amazing, as were the rest of the staff we encountered. Breakfast was great and fresh and the cooked options were not greasy as we find quite often in other hotels. The room was great, quiet and clean. We would have given 5 stars but unfortunately even though everything else about this hotel was perfect, the bed and the pillows made for an uncomfortable sleep, the pillows felt like they were full of small pieces of foam and the mattress wasn't much better."
