Great hotel and friendly staff.

This was our second time staying at The Railway Tavern Hotel and once again great value for money and very close to where we was visiting. Very friendly staff and free parking is included on their secure car park on the hotel grounds. Will be booking again next time we are in East London.

Affordable good accommodation

We spent 1 night. Had a nice clean room plenty of space and en-suite bathroom. Easy access in and out of the property using codes for doors. So we could come and go as we please with a member on site to contact by telephone for support. Cheap but very clean. Would stay again

Rough and ready

Not the cleanest of hotels, the toilets are in a poor state, needs a lot of TLC. The staff are really friendly and helpful, it’s close to the tube station so easy to get around. There is secure parking. My biggest gripe is no tea and coffee facilities.

Not very comfortable, but well located.

The guy who welcomed me was kind and polite. The accommodation is in an old building and the facilities show the age. The bed was a spring bed and I felt the springs on my body, I didn't sleep well at all. There was this weird loud noise that kept coming from the toilet every now and again. It's less of a hotel, more of an old residence located on top of a pub. It was nice that the there was parking on site and it is a short walk from many places around Westfield in Stratford.

Very low quality and you get what you’ve paid for. Hotel is in a good location for London travel network, pub is cheap and it offers parking for free. Shame really as this would be a really nice place done up and had some money spent on room conditions and comfort. Bed is old (sprung), room wasn’t clean still had previous occupants rubbish in bin and en-suite facilities are poor and unclean. But location is amazing as is the price for a stay in London. Pay for what you get and I’ve stayed in worse places.

Needs attention. Not a 4 star hotel.

The Railway Tavern is in a good location close to Stratford Station. The rooms are a good size but sadly need some attention. No handwash or shower gel in the bathroom. Dirty mirrors.Only one bedside lamp working. The room was generally clean but lacked the kind of attention to detail which I would expect for a 4 star hotel. The bathroom needed a more thorough clean and would benefit from having dome items updated. The basin waste is very old and dirty. The macerator needs attention as it doesn't flush properly and then goes off randomly without warning. No tea and coffee making facilities was a big disappointment. Generally The Railway Tavern would benefit from some attention outside and in to make it a more attractive place to stay and to warfant the 4 star rating.

Great location for Stratford station

If you are looking for luxury on a budget, this is not the place for you. Staff were friendly. Bedding was very clean. The rooms were very tired looking and would benefit from a bit of renovation. The bathroom/shower could do with a very deep clean and de-scale. Perfect location for Stratford station. Overall we got what we paid for.
