“We Loved it here”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2012

Well, I'm really surprised at some of the things I'm reading here!! I visit Bexley several times a year and have always found it to have a very friendly and professional team working there. We always ask for a cot for our grandson, and that is always ready for us when we arrive, and the staff there always make sure we are very well looked after. We often have room service because of the baby being asleep, and have never experienced any problems. Yes the bar prices can be a bit expensive, but you are staying at a hotel, not visiting your local !! I personally would like to thank the staff, we wouldn't go anywhere else when visiting the area, and my husband loves the breakfast selection, it certainly sets him up for the day. Well done Bexley, and keep up the good work.

Coach trip organisers had sorted hotel,as all inclusive of our overnight trip, they couldn't have done better than use this Holiday Inn, we had avery comfortable night in a spacious. clean and welcoming room. thought we were in an executive room as it was so good.If we are ever that way again we will have no hesitation in booking into this hotel.

“very poor service”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012

My husband and I decided to take our two kids to Bexley cuz we had never been there before. The hotel is in a great location, its walking distance from the train station and many busses pass right outside. Check in was easy and swift and the lady at the check- in counter was helpful and nice. However, when we got to the room we found that they had forgotten to prepare the sofa beds for the kids so housekeeping had to come do it while we were in the room. We decided to go out for a walk while housekeeping was getting the beds ready and when we got back we found that she had not left a pillow for either of the kids. I had also asked the lady from housekeeping to bring me an extra bottle of shampoo and conditioner, but that never arrived either. Furthermore, the bathroom sink was blocked up, so we called front desk to report this but it was not taken care of while we were there, so we all had to use the bathtub to wash instead. Front desk staff did offer to move us to another room, but they also informed us that housekeeping staff had gone home for the night and therefore it would be very difficult to move us.
Breakfast was not very good either. In fact all the kids had to eat was cerial and milk.
All in all, I don't think we'll ever come back here again.

Thank you for your great comments about our helpful staff and easy check in, and I’m really pleased you found our location suitable for your needs. However I’m so sorry that your room was not prepared for your arrival, also I am very surprised to learn there was not enough selection at breakfast for your children as Holiday Inn prides itself on the variety of breakfast items we provide. If there was something your children felt was missing, please let us know. Please feel free to contact my P.A. directly if you are travelling to London again so that we may personally take care of you and your next stay. Once again please do accept my apologies and I do hope that the remainder of your trip was most enjoyable.

“Ultra disappointing Christmas experience!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 December 2011

Planning your Christmas do at this hotel - be ready to be disappointed! Myself and 14 friends went there on Saturday 10 December and had the worst experience I have had anywhere for a very long time. The service was APPALLING - really the worst I have known. The food (for the set price we had paid) was pathetic, the deal did NOT include tea or coffee after dinner, not even the hint of a mince pie. All in all I think this was a complete and utter rip off - Holiday Inn should be ashamed of themselves for such poor management. I eventually had to DEMAND that the Manager came to our table - this was after having complained to several of the staff - and supposedly we are going to be given a 25% discount off the total cost. Believe me, I will make this happen. I would never recommend anyone going to this hotel for any sort of event or even just to stay there. It was truly dreadful.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. I am certainly disappointed that your event was not to our usual standard of service and would ask you to please accept my sincere apologies. I notice in your Trip Advisor review you stated that tea, coffee or mince pies were not offered on the night. Our brochure does not state that these are included in the price, and I’m sorry you felt let down by this. I would like to say that we accommodate many guests over the Festive period, some of whom come back to us year after year, so I am very sorry that we let you and your friends down on the night in question. The refund of 25% which was promised has been carried out, and I hope this goes some way to restoring your confidence in us. Please feel free to contact me on 0871 942 9006 if you wish to discuss this further. Once again thank you for taking the time to place your review on Trip Advisor, and I do hope that you have an enjoyable Christmas.

“I'd stay here again”

Pleasantly surprised especially because of how it looks from outside. Really comfortable warm room and bed. Food was a little tasteless but fine. I would Recommend it.

Thank you so much for taking the time to place your review on Trip Advisor. We understand how important it is to look after our guests and I'm so pleased you found our accommodation to be welcoming, even though you had some concern from the outside view !! I think this just goes to show that we should "never judge a book by it's cover, it's always what's on the inside that counts". I know that all members of my team will be thrilled to read such positive feedback, so thank you once again, and may I take this opportunity to wish you and your family a very Happy and enjoyable Christmas.
