Budget friendly hotel with helpful staff, perfectly located for Alexandra Palace
Pros:

The young guy on reception (I think he said his name was Nick) was extremely friendly and helpful. We had an initial mishap after we changed our booking via telephone to a studio room but it wasn't logged on system on the day. He still sorted us out a studio last minute for the same price. The room is fairly basic but it's what we expected for the price, and we were happy with this. It was clean, functional and beds comfortable. It's certainly cheaper than other places in the area and we only stayed one night for an event at Ally Pally. Perfect location for this. Also £10 parking for the whole day is really good value and beats anywhere else, very secure.

Cons:

The lift working would have been ideal, just so that the receptionist didn't have to lug my case up the 4 flights of stairs!

Great value for money and frienly staff!
Pros:

Good clean room. Staff are friendly and accomodating, we got there 4 hours early only expecting to park the car and come back later to check in, they said we could have our room early and they didn't charge us early check-in.

Cons:

Not really the hotel's fault but there were quite a few emergency services that came past through the night with sirens blasting and our room faced the road so sleep was broken.

upsetting and major inconvenience
Pros:

i want to submit a complaint , my daughter at 19 and her friend checked in here for the post malone concert and when they checked in they were greeted with an angry member of staff who didnt speak english to them , given they are only 19 they felt uneasy and didn't feel comfortable staying there , they left after an hour and i had to get them another property nearby , as a mother in glasgow and having my daughter feel like this stuck down in london when checking into what i thought was a reputable accommodation is not acceptable , and i expect a refund and also expect you to take this up with the owners of the forest house hotel for future reference

Cons:

staff were angry when my daughter check in
felt uneasy
room wasnt clean as it looks like in pictures

Prima verblijf, schone kamer, lekkere bedden en uiterst vriendelijk en servicegericht personeel
Pros:

De service. We hadden ons vergist in de inchecktijd en waren te vroeg, maar toch werd de kamer zsm in orde gebracht.

Cons:

De ventilator werkt niet, de zitting van de stoel was niet goed en de bedden stonden op wielen, waardoor ze steeds verschoven als je erop wilde gaan zitten.
