Vile, dirty, broken fixtures and lights and a coffee machine that also didn't work

1.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 28 Oct 2024
One of the nastiest IHG hotels in the country.
As you can see from the pictures I took, the hotels rooms do not look anything like they do from the website.
Oh and BTW, this is there upgraded room!
Which I got through being a platinum member. If you can, literally stay anywhere else. This place is beyond disgusting and the girls on reception couldn't handle a complaint. Instead just looked really embarrassed. As a staff member myself I would also be ashamed to work here. I'm putting this review here as they didn't respond to my one on Google. Let's see if this works.
Date of stay: November 2023
Room Tip: They do not have a bar or restaurant. They tell you to use the one next door. There are hostels...

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Jordana746. We sincerely apologise for the experience you had during your stay. Your comments regarding all the issues, and the service you received at the reception are concerning, and we take them very seriously.

We appreciate your loyalty as a platinum member and understand how disappointing it must have been to encounter these issues, especially in an upgraded room. We strive to provide a high standard of service and accommodations, and it is clear we fell short in this instance.

We encourage you to reach out to us directly so we can address your concerns more thoroughly and work towards a resolution. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we would like the opportunity to make things right. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to hear from you soon.

best regards
Shah

Stayed for one night and the hotel is on par with other Indigo Hotels. Comfy bed. Lovely service from the front of house.

We love Indigo hotels - from a budget price point these are great IHG hotels. The only downside is this hotel room was very small despite us being upgraded.

Booked months in advance. They waited till we arrived at the hotel to say one of our rooms is unavailable so three of us have to sleep in one queen bed. Different staff made different excuses and made us wait 30 minutes so they could put an extra mattress on the floor in our room. Not happy and highly don't recommended

Excellent Hotel, highly recommended. Very convenient location, just a few minutes walk from Paddington Station. Good, comfortable rooms. Good food in the attached café. The staff were excellent. In particular, Inram, helped us with a couple of issues. He was friendly, efficient and incredibly positive. We will definitely stay here again, next time we're in London.

Rooms are pretty small, especially considering I had an upgrade. It was a good stay though and the staff are exceptional. Rooms are on the small side but comfy and clean. A little noisy with the floorboards. Excellent location, 5 mins walk from Paddington Station. Great chippy close by and the bar/restaurant attached is Bella Italia. I got a Negroni from Bella Italia and took it up to Indigo’s terrace bar which was quite cool. Breakfast at Bella Italia was very nice…
