Stayed for 2 nights with my daughter in August to attend the Taylor Swift concert. Convenient location, hotel parking available at £7 per day, train station is 2 minute walk away from hotel. Clean hotel, everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. This is our second stay in this hotel to attend a concert and would definitely book again.

The common areas and the staff were all excellent, but the rooms were very dirty, especially in the carpets on the hallways. There was a lot of street noise, even though we were on the top floor. The area around the hotel was extremely unsafe almost looking like a back alley.

bathroom and sink not well designed!
Sink leaking. Walk in shower not well designed - water going all over the floor and towards toilet - health hazard. This is the third time we have stayed in a holiday inn express at different locations and each time the sink has been leaking!!!

Stayed hear after Bruce Springsteen concert at Wembley Stadium. Room was spotless, check-in was easy and the girl is right next to Watford Junction. Breakfast is included. Lots of choice but small plates. Good taste really good. Hash browns were super crispy. "Air con" is so loud. We ended up turning it off and opening the window. This wasn't much better as right next to West Coast Main Line. Still managed to get a decent sleep. Would recommend to anybody going to Wembley or concert in London and need something convenient for the night.

Aircon not working properly
Room and shower were clean. Bed was comfortable. But we didn’t get to have a good night sleep because the aircon wasn’t working and it was warm. Temperature in the room was at 22 degrees constantly even when we set it to 5 degrees. We noticed it as soon as we checked in, and reported it to reception. We were advised that they will get it checked with their maintenance person. But when we came back that night the room was still at 22 degrees and wasn’t getting cold. Upon checkout 3 days later, we were told that the aircon/heating was actually controlled centrally and it doesn’t get cooler than 21 degrees. Not sure how they expect the guests to sleep in that temperature. We can’t keep the windows open either as the hotel is situated beside the train station.
