Reviews of Holiday Inn London - Camden Lock by IHG
First the good parts - The room was really spacious the biggest room I have ever stayed in, in London and was quiet with restful sleep. Breakfast was lovely on the first day. The room was very clean although the carpet and some of the furniture was a little tired. The bathroom was great and the bath fantastic!
Now the not so good parts - I have never stayed in a hotel where you are only allowed two tea bags - and with two tea drinkers this proved problematic. I suspect there were new people being trained on the front desk as they were not at all helpful and on our first visit to reception they tried to give us just sugar and then after asking again for teabags we were given three tea bags. I wonder if there was a shortage of teabags in Camden? The second day at breakfast the toaster was turned off promptly at 9.30 and I was initially ‘ told’ quite sternly that breakfast finished at 930. The person in charge did whisper something to the lady and then the toaster was put back on - I do appreciate that there are deadlines but I wasn’t impressed at the stern almost regimental response from the lady.
I did mention about the teabags on check out and the lady on reception did apologise and said we should have asked for more by phoning from the room. I was also not recognised as an IHG member which at other hotels I always have been.
Overall a disappointing and expensive experience.
Love staying at Holiday Inn in Camden. The staff are so welcoming and friendly. Will do anything for you. The rooms are a bit dated but the bed's are amazing and we had the best sleep ever. Everything was spotless clean and would recommend to stay here but watch out for prices and value for money in the bar as this was quite expensive.
The hotel sits directly across from Camden Lock Market, which couldn't be more perfect. The penthouse suite is amazing with a huge balcony overlooking Camden. Great breakfast options too!
I recently had a red carpet book launch and celebration party at the Glasshouse Holiday Inn Camden and found myself surprised by how fantastic it was. The food provided was excellent. The venue couldn’t have been any more perfect. Staff …
I enjoyed my stay in this hotel a lot. Well located in the center of Camden . Very nice, clean and spacious room. Clean and organized bathroom. The breakfast was amazing, big variety of choices. Was so hard to choose that I overate eventually. Also the canteen’s interior is very cozy.
Only issue we had was intermittent availability of hot water for shower presumably due to high demand in mornings. …
I stayed at the hotel for 7 days. Rooms are a bit pricey for what you get, but still worth it for the location. Rooms are small but work fine if you don't spend too much time in the room. The rooms carpet could use updating. The hotel …
On arrival the staff were very welcoming, polite and friendly. The signed us in, and gave me the key and told me where to go etc, I got to the room and everything completely spotless, cleaniness was great and overall I had a very good night's rest. It is easy to find and in a great location. Would definitely recommend.
Checked in by an extremely polite lady on the desk who offered complimentary drinks as our room wasn’t quite ready yet. A nice relaxing drink at the bar followed by what seemed like a cavernous room, considering our Camden location. Great …
I stayed for 2 nights combining work and leisure and will definitely be back. The staff were super friendly. At the moment housekeeping only come in if requested, which I much prefer. The hotel was in a fantastic location, right beside Camden market and a stones throw from the tube. An insane amount of places to eat and drink surrounding the hotel. The hotel and my room were very clean. The shower was very powerful and the aircon was appreciated. I had a great sleep. Would have loved to have stayed longer. Will make it my go-to hotel whenever I am in London.
Stayed for a couple of nights whilst on a shopping trip with my daughter.
The hotel is in a fantastic location but still quiet.
All the staff were very welcoming and polite and the hotel itself was very …
This hotel is affordable with luxurious amenities. The rooms are great, especially overlooking Camden Lock. Showers are piping hot and strong. Breakfast offerings were better than almost anywhere I've stayed: informal but huge variety! The staff are all extremely helpful and professional. Even the bartender was able to make up a drink on the fly when he ran out of one ingredient. Close to the Underground, loads of shops. Truly an excellent place to stay.
Arrived on one of the hottest days of the year so the air conditioned room was very welcome. The hotel was modern and comfortable. All staff we came into contact with were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good with plenty to choose …
Excellent hotel in a great part of London. Boasts amazing views of Camden Lock. Perfect location to the tube and its easy to get around. Food was perfect. Staff friendly and hotel is really clean. Definitely recommend to anyone.
Very pleasant and helpful staff on arrival. Spacious and very clean room. Amenities like coffee and tea provided along with a desk that was great for working. Noisy air conditioning unit, the room gets warm during the night and there's no other choice but putting on cold air that loudly blows. Lighting could be brighter but plenty of mirrors and plugs. No top sheet so only choice is a duvet or not if you're too warm and don't want the aircon! Safe in the wardrobe, iron and ironing board. Lots of food options at the breakfast buffet and everything was kept hot and fresh. Could also ask for a freshly prepared omlette. Great location for Camden but there was roadworks on during my stay, however no noises or real inconvenience.
Great hotel with a great location, staff were friendly and very helpful, rooms were clean and serviced daily if you so wished. Breakfast was good and the breakfast supervisor / floor manager was very efficient and helpful. Beds very …
I absolutely loved this hotel. The location, staff and breakfast were all great. I’ll be staying here again in December. I had already made a booking for another hotel in London for our December stay, but after the weekend we have just had, I’ve changed my booking to the Holiday Inn Camden. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this hotel.
This hotel is in a great location and has really helpful, welcoming staff. It has a positive feel about the place.
Sadly however it wasn't all great. We had a wheelchair accessible room with a …
Stayed for the night with my boyfriend for his birthday. We had the penthouse suite which was very spacious and consisted of a balcony which was lovely to sit out on in the morning with a coffee, taking in the views of London. The bed was …
We stayed in a penthouse suite. The views over the lock and market, were great for people watching. …
We loved our stay at the holiday inn Camden lock. From start to finish the staff made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Location was excellent and we had an amazing room looking over the lock. The room was a good size and a very comfortable bed. We slept very well here. As this was our 50th wedding anniversary it was a very special occasion and we are so glad that we chose this hotel.
Really enjoyed staying here. Good location as right next to Camden Lock and market.
Staff were pleasant. …
This hotel is the best place to stay in Camden for the ambience and atmosphere of the Market place, the Locks and canals, the numerous food outlets and vibe of the area. It is central to them all, right on the canal itself - and close to trains/underground and bus routes. The hotel itself is very friendly, helpful all staff. The rooms are immaculate and well presented, trendy practical furniture and an amazing bed so comfortable. Office space too with excellent internet all free. The bedding is plump and pristine, so clean and fresh. The room is perfectly clean. The bathroom (with bath and shower) was perfect too. I would especially recommend the breakfast - and can honestly say the food quality and numerous options are second to none. I realise this review is gushing a bit, but I'm not one to give praise where it's not due. Pitfalls? Parking for car is tricky and don't take any chances as traffic wardens are overly effective (saying it nicely.) Only one side of hotel faces the canal and market so negotiate if that's your choice (personally I like overlooking London as per 3rd floor other side - and yes, I tried both. Well recommended Hotel.
This hotel is superbly located for visiting Camden market, which is a 5 min walk away. Hotel staff are very welcoming, helpful and professional. Arriving by car is a hassle as there is no parking at the hotel, although a reasonably priced …
Such a great venue! We had our wedding ceremony and reception! Amazing experience throughout! Communication was spot on and made me feel at ease with the wedding planning. Fani was our wedding planner and she did an amazing job! I had a …
Excellent location, very friendly staff at reception and bar.
Ground floor very modern but the rooms are very very dated and in desperate need of a refurbishment.
Stayed for 2 nights and room wasn't serviced whilst we were there.
I expect more from holiday inn in the future.
I am a returning guest because my son and family live bus stops away near the Heath. But I just don't return because of convenience. The hotel rooms and staff are excellent. I really enjoy my stay each time.
Our stay at the Holiday Inn in Camden Lock was great for a night out at The Roundhouse. Great location, clean and the staff were great. Had everything we needed. Room was quiet so slept very well. Would recommend.
I can't rate this hotel enough from the moment we arrived we were met by lovely people at reception that had us checked in and in our rooms in mins, the location is spot on for everything no taxis required everything in walking distance. …
Very nice hotel. Loved my stay. We had a family room two double beds. Room was big enough for 4 people. Plenty of consumables to use if you forget anything. Stone throw away from Camden market and pubs next door so not far to go for shopping or food.
The hotel is situated right in the heart of it all, perfect location! With stunning views of Camden lock.
Just a 2 minute walk to the tube. …
I always enjoy staying here - the team are invariably friendly and helpful and the hotel itself is clean, smart, a nice environment and so handily located by Camden Lock. Other than the party-people outside can be a little noisy into the …
If it’s all about the location, then this hotel is the best. It a 2 minute walk to Camden Lock and all that Camden has to offer, which we found was SO MUCH. What a great place to visit. This hotel was clean, comfortable with very friendly …
I was visiting London on business for the day. My fellow director and I required somewhere to meet. He suggested Camden.
After spending some time looking for an appropriate location. We discovered the Holiday Inn, Camden.
My first impressions of the place were positive. We were acknowledged by the staff member on reception with a smile.
The reception area was open spaceous & pleasantly decorated.
Fortunately for us there was a bar restaurant. We ordered hot drinks & some food from the menu. Excellent service all round.
I will definitely use this hotel for overnight stays in the near future.👍
This is a great location, overlooking the lock.
We always stay in room 507 as it has a large balcony and we love to sit outside and watch the street market and lock.
Others have mentioned that, especially at the weekend, it does get loud, but the music usually stops around 12 midnight - although sometime you can get rowdy guests, but that isnt the hotels fault.
It is Camden which is buzzing.
We were celebrating our 21st Wedding anniversary and my husbands 61st ( a delayed present for his 60th - Tickets to the England match the night before) and on the mirror they had written a lovely message and better still gifted us a bottle of wine. So thoughtful.
The staff are always pleasant and helpful. In particular, on this occasion was the barman who supported Italy, made us smile. :)
As reward members we were also give a complimentary drink at the bar.
We didnt eat this time.
We asked for a late checkout as our train wasnt until after 5, this wasnt a problem to them and it was really appreciated - Sunday was wet so it was great to be able to freshen up after our walk to Abbey Road and nearby.
Thank you again Holiday Inn - Camden - hopefully we will be back soon :)
This hotel is in a perfect location on Camden Lock. Very friendly reception staff. Our room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. We couldn’t however get the temperature right on the shower, it was either hot or cold. …
This is a clean and comfortable hotel in a superb location for visiting Camden. The bed was very comfortable and we experienced very little noise from the road outside. The blackout curtains were awesome too and we had a fantastic sleep. …
The best thing about this hotel is the location. If it was anywhere else it would be classed as mediocre. Having said that the breakfast is superb but the standard rooms all look onto a wall so as soon as you want a Camden view the price rockets, particularly to look over Camden Lock. Toiletries are sparse and had to ask for a bathrobe even though it was the most expensive room with a balcony.
Definitely will stay here again and recommend the hotel. Really felt welcomed by every member of staff. Very clean. Breakfast is very good. Always felt safe. The only thing was nothing to do with the hotel - if you are a heavy sleeper you will be fine, however if you are not be aware that you might be interrupted during your sleep as the party continues through the night out there in Camden Market :-) The nice staff has suggested to keep my luggage there after my check out while I was going to be around... so helpful!
Such a great hotel, really lovely clean room with an amazing view looking out over Camden market and the canal. Breakfast was amazing, much nicer than any hotel Breakfast I've had before. Lovely friendly staff and no noises or sleep disturbance at all, even though it was the night before the football. A truly great night.
This is totally subjective but my stay was good staff were polite and friendly the room was very nice complimentary toiletries were a little lacking but adequate. But over all I'd go and stay there again.
This Holiday Inn is great. Beautifully decorated and has a great little coffee shop in the lobby. It's conveniently located right across the lock from the market and there are several great restaurants a short walk away.
Great 3 nights stay. Perfect for if wanting to visit Camden attractions like the markets as you are right there. Camden tube station is a 5 min walk so very easy to get around and into the city of London. Room was spacious and clean, very comfortable bed.
This is our first time in staying here and we are very impressed with how friendly the staff are! The room is lovely and very clean and comfortable! And the breakfast was really nice 😋 we will definitely be staying here again. Will recommend to friends for sure.Thank you and stay safe 🤗.
This hotel is just great! The location is perfect, right next to Camden Market, but also well placed for all central London attractions. The staff are delightful, always on hand, friendly and willing to help. The rooms are immaculate, spacious and have everything you could possibly need.
We ordered room service a few times and the food was delicious - much better than some of the bar/ restaurants we went to.
We had a great weekend and will be staying here again when we are next in London. Thank you!
Rooms were very clean, spacious and well equipped in terms of facilities. Staff were super warm and friendly. Location is fantastic. Highly recommend!
The hotel was amazing the moment we met with the reception team, excellent customer service. We got a drink from the bar and the barman was really helpful and told us about the facilities in the area which was very nice to hear. The hotel …
Comfortable beds and clean room. Booked and paid for room with a view and I got an excellent view of the lock. Excellent location for bars, restaurants and Camden shops. Friendly professional staff that couldn’t do enough for you. Great breakfast. I would definitely come again! Highly recommend!
If you don’t come by train it’s a short 10 - 15 mins walk to park your car in a cheap car park safely.
Room was fine, location was fine but I'd specified on booking and over the phone prior to arrival that I'd need a room close to the lifts as I was on crutches after knee surgery. I got a ton that was physically as far away from the lifts as it was possible to be which was disappointing
Upon arrival at the hotel the staff were friendly. We went up to our room to our room to find the 2 plug sockets near the beds wasn't working. There was a mass of hair in the bath plug and even after removing it and using the shower, water …
We arrived early and the hotel were accommodating and managed to give us an early check in. We needed to drop off our bags and get to a show. We were also able to have a late check out as members of IHG. I had prebooked the breakfast as I …
The service we received was excellent. Staff always had a smile and was always helpful. It did not matter if the staff worked behind the bar, reception or were just coming out of a room after cleaning, We were always greeted with a smile. Our room was clean and functional. The breakfast was very good. Our room had an amazing view over Camden Lock. The location was central and easy access to restaurants and the underground. I would stay here again.
Stayed one night for our anniversary. Hotel is right in the heart of Camden,lovely view of canal from our room which paid more for and glad I did. Staff were very friendly and helpful right from arrival, checking everything was alright. Bed was very comfy,good size room. Only bad point was bathroom so small hit knees closing door several times as so close to toilet when opened inwards.Breakfast was lovely with wide choice available. Would recommend staying here
This hotel is a perfect location to discover the wonderful culture of London. It offers a modern, clean and comfortable room to recharge after action packed days and nights. Its a very safe retreat, staff are lovely and are on hand to help …
