Pros:

Prima hotel. Mooie kamers. In de bar was er (soms) live muziek. Dagelijkse schoonmaak van de kamers

Cons:

Wat onpersoonlijk en zakelijk.
Ik heb zelf een fout gemaakt door een verkeerde kamer te boeken via Booking (onduidelijk in welke kamer een bad of juist douche zit). Maar corrigeren ging alleen na echt forse bijbetaling (veel meer dan de andere kamer via Booking had gekost).

Kamer prima. Helaas geen airco (wel ventilator)

Great Location
Pros:

The location was excellent for journeys into Greenwich and the O2 Arena. Two bus stops outside the hotel gave us easy access to our main points of interest.

Cons:

Staff could have been more friendly and the occasional smile would have been appreciated.

Lovely hotel to stay.
Pros:

We received a very good and spacious room and the bed was a king sized bed that was very comfortable indeed.

Will be happy to stay there again should the need arise.

Cons:

The ladies at breakfast could be a little bit friendlier.

Gutes Hotel für ein paar Tage sightseeing
Pros:

Gutes Hotel, was die beste Zeit allerdings hinter sich hat. Die Ausstattung hat dringend eine Modernisierung verdient. Das Personal war sehr zuvorkommend und immer hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück war auch super, alles da von full englisch über kontinental bis Gebäck, Obst usw. Etwas außerhalb der Innenstadt, jedoch sehr gut an durch die Öffis angebunden. Viel länger als eine halbe Stunde braucht man nicht ins Zentrum.

Cons:

Wie gesagt, die Ausstattung lässt doch zu wünschen übrig. Unser Teppichboden war sehr fleckig, das Bad war sauber, jedoch war alles ein wenig drüber...

Great hotel in nice area of London
Pros:

The property is located in a very nice area of London not far away from Greenwich and Blackheath itself is a little gem. It is also very well served with buses and trains. The staff is very kind and forthcoming and pays attention to customers needs. Also last but not least the breakfast is … delicious !

Pros:

Unpretentious old-fashioned hotel in a nice spot with friendly staff and very convenient free parking in front of the building. Breakfast was well above average.

Cons:

No bottled water or Kleenex in the room which was rather warm in July with with sun coming straight through the windows and just a fan for cooling.
