The Inn on the Lake Hotel

The Inn on the Lake Hotel

8/10 Good
"Generally our experience was good. Getting there was fairly easy. Check in went smooth, the view from room over the lake was beautifull.we slept well.Food was good, we had breakfast only.Waiting time for an English breakfast seemed bit long and portion size could be bit bigger.Staff was kind and friendly.We stayed there for 1 night only. My only complain is first impression when we entered our room there were big stains on a carpet, which made us uncomfortable and want to leave immediately.On the drain in shower there was still bit of hairs.Carpets in a hallway are worn off as well. Taken away cleanliness issue it is a good value for the money and a lovely set up over the lake."

Holiday Inn Brentwood M25, Jct. 28 by IHG

Holiday Inn Brentwood M25, Jct. 28 by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"This is a really well run hotel. We had a large room with a super king sized bed. I asked for a softer pillow and housekeeping delivered one within minutes of asking. The pool is only small but it has a great jacuzzi (lovely and hot which often isn’t the case), sauna and steam room. The buffet breakfast was delicious. Obviously it’s not in a beautiful setting as it’s right in the junction of the A12 and M25 but it is a little haven of loveliness."

"Hotel and room were clean, and staff were good, but there was no air conditioning anywhere, in the rooms or the restaurant. They just relied on floor fans. Really not good with the summer we've had. Plenty of parking spaces, but no EV charge points."

"Breakfast excellent but the meat at theSunday carvery wasn't covered by staff all the time and consequently blue bottle flies were walking over the roast beef which put you off. When said about it to the staff member she just smiled and gave a little laugh. Not the most suitable answer. Otherwise the stay was very good."
