“We wouldn't hesitate to stay again”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012

As a birthday treat, my two daughters and myself came to London to watch a show and stayed for one night in the family room. My girls chuckled as I kept commenting on how beautiful and white the bedding and towels were! The King size bed was excellent but I was relegated to the smaller bed, which could have done with some sort of brake on, as when I sat up in bed it slid across the floor and a bedside light beside it would have been a nice touch.

The room itself was in need of a little TLC but overall was spacious and very clean.

The breakfast room is lovely and had a great choice but we found the self service hot food a little luke warm, the staff were friendly and efficient.

Just a couple of minutes walk away is the high street with supermarkets, restaurants and plenty of other shops if you happen to need anything. The Woodside Park tube station is literally 5 minutes walk away, so it made getting into the centre of London so easy.

On our next visit I would definitely book again with Glenlyn

“Recommend!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

A friend and I stayed here for 3 nights for the London IMATS. It was an easy 4 mile drive from the guest house to Alexandra palace and the hotel staff were extremely helpful and friendly, they went on their computer for us to look up maps and parking details at the convention. There was a friendly member of staff at reception 24 hrs a day. There was a tradition english breakfast buffet availible every monring which is basic but delicous and the kitchen staff were also very friendly and helpful. The location was supringly great there were many restaurants and shops on the door step. We will be staying here every year for the IMATS. The room was clean and we slept well. Good value for money. Recommend!

Room Tip: twin room was great

“Very Good - Will stay here again.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012

The hotel is conveniently situated for Woodside Park tube station, only a 5 minute easy walk away (though it is slightly uphill on the way back) Only stayed one night but the friendly receptionist allowed us to leave our car there for the full 2 days - saving us finding & paying for car parking. The furniture in the room had a few chips & there was only a bedside cabinet on one side of the bed. The rest of the building, however was immaculate - never have I seen staff so obsessed with cleaning!! There is a very pleasant and very reasonably priced bar area, and an excellent self service breakfast buffet.

“Free upgrade”

I visited Europe and needed one night in London before my flight back to the states. We booked the Glenlyn. It was our best stay for the entire trip. They upgraded us to one of their apartments for free due to vacancy. It was a wonderful surprise!
