We were not expecting too much with the Holiday Inn Express - just a central city location with a basic place to sleep at night. This place offered the central location - but little else. We are Platinum level members with this hotel chain so we were hoping it would, at least, offer a few perks. The perks we were... More

Holiday Inn Southwark located 15 mins from Waterloo station, 5 mins walk from Southwark station (Jubilee line) is in Holiday Inn’s lower end. Very small rooms (even they said I was upgraded), no safe, iron to pick up yourself, only breakfast restaurant. But friendly service , a barbershop across the street and some bars close in the Thames riverside area. More

You don't get many nasty surprises with Holiday Inn Express. This hotel is no exception. The rooms are basic and functional. The beds are comfortable, the showers work and the breakfast is OK (if you can find a seat in the dining area). The rooms on the roadside are much noisier due to the traffic. The location is more interesting... More

I booked two nights at the Holiday Inn Express (14th and 15th May). All booking sites told me that it was busy in London over these two days so prices were high and there was a limited choice. The room cost £165 on Monday night and £160 on the Tuesday. The staff were friendly enough and the room was OK... More

The hotel is just like most other Holiday Inn Express hotels: You get a clean room, friendly staff and a nice location. This hotel is close to Southwark and London Bridge stations, so even if you need to be somewhere else in the city, getting around is easy. We stayed in one of the refurbished rooms on the fifth floor.... More

Stayed at this hotel recently with family in London. Good if you have a limited budget for staying in London. The location is good if you are driving and it has its own underground parking without you to worry getting lots at the roadside and charges are per day. Rooms are newly furbish on the higher floors.

We stayed at this hotel a few weeks ago. We were initially given a room on one of the lower floors which we found disappointing. Although clean the room was cold and the furniture was quite worn.

Stayed here for 7 nights after a winning bid on priceline; hotel's price is expensive otherwise but within the norm for London. The rooms are clean and simply appointed though lacking a mini bar/fridge, the staff is helpful and polite, and that's all you need if you're on a shopping/sightseeing/drinking vacation. They even have a very decent breakfast, and it's... More

I stopped here on business recently. The location is good for central London and the City as it is inbetween Southwark and London Bridge tube stations (about 7-10 mins walk max). The area is okay at night, fairly quiet and relatively safe. There are a few restaurants and pubs in the area that are not touristy and are reasonable to... More
