Ibis London Stratford Hotel

Generally, Ibis hotel rooms all seem to be much of a muchness. It’s as if they all come off a conveyor belt in a giant hotel factory somewhere. But the rooms here fell short of the usual standard – the AC unit wasn’t functioning on a warm, humid night and the window didn’t close properly, resulting in noise coming in from the busy street outside. On the upside the hotel is reasonably priced and around 5 minutes walk from Stratford tube/DLR station. However there is no dedicated customer car park (the nearest alternative is the... more

The location is very convenient. We chose the hotel because we were going to Excel for the Triathlon and found it also very practical to go to Central London (tube is direct). Staff was friendly and helpful. Rooms are not very large but I was positively impressed by the cleanliness. Funny bathroom, like a cabin.

My husband and I stayed at the Ibis and the staff were really nice, the room was clean and it was quiet in the hotel, although it was full. In the morning I came across a cockroach in the shower and another on on the bedside table next to the shower drainage. Thankfully not too many to freak out about, but it was a shock.

I traveled with my husband and our 1 year old child. We did not have any problem. The hotel was clean, staff was helpful. The room was simple and nice. There is even a possibility to make tea or coffee in your room, the kettle (and instant coffee, tea bags, sugar, milk and cups) are in disposition. The hotel is not situated in the centre, but connection is very good, the underground is just few minutes by walk. I liked best: cleanness, kettle in the room, clean towels every day. I disliked: lift out of order, high chair for baby... more

Had stayed in this hotel for more than a month and never found it boring. Good location, with quick access to underground station. Excellent spacious room with all required aminities. Friendly staff always eager to help and make you feel comfortable. Room was nicely cleaned and all requirements were taken careof. The buffet beakfast was excellent with a good choice of continental food. Good location in the town centre but yet the rooms were very quiet without any disturbance. Would definitely recommend this one.

Clean and functional hotel with good sized rooms compared to some in the Ibis chain. Our only gripe was that there is no parking whatsoever and the receptionist was vague about where we could park. Either on street meter parking some way from the hotel or in the nearby shopping centre. It was a bit a a drag to have to drive round late at night to find somewhere to leave the car. For this reason, we wouldn't choose this Ibis again. The only other thing was the fire alarm going off at 3 in the morning. Not the best night's sleep! Bed... more

I had to stay for a couple of days near Excel for the World Tourism Fair, but unfortunatelly all the hotels near Excel were fully booked. My best option was getting a room in Ibis at Stratford which I got a reservation quite easy along with my friend Moha. Ibis has about the same quality all over the world, perfect and extensive breakfast, clean and useful rooms. Staff at the reception were quite nice and were quite fast bringing me another extra blanket. Some people don't like big chain hotels like Ibis, but, in my... more

This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in! It's in a cool neighborhood, but the staff were rude and made mistakes along every step of the way in our stay. They are slow to do anything and fix their mistakes. Not one of them was pleasant and friendly and we got the impression that we should be grateful that they were allowing us to stay. Only positve personal was the cleaning lady! She smiled and said hello every morning. Also, we had a room in the back where all the deliveries for the restaurant and local supermarket were made.... more

Not fancy but perfectly acceptable. Very clean and modern. Staff was helpful. This is definitely a budget hotel, but we were very pleased with this and every other Ibis we stayed at on our trip!

I was surprised to stay in this hotel paying only 40 pounds per night! It's an excellent hotel with a large room, nice double bed. The design of toilet was interesting which is cylindrical! it's such a nice hotel should rank above 3 stars. However, the promotion was gone and now it costs 58 pounds per night. That's a bit expensive as breakfast is not included. If your budget is not tight, it's really a nice place to stay, especially for businessman. The environment outside is nice as well. And it's close to the tube station , just around 7... more
