we received a warm welcome at reception, and also all of the members of staff we met were very friendly. the room was basic but clean, also cleaned during our 2 night stay, which we weren't expecting, everything worked as it should. A parking permit was issued and parking was very secure. Hotel about 10-15 minute walk to the train station with many shops and restaurants in-between. They don't offer breakfast but the lady at reception pointed me in the direction of a hotel a few minutes away where being a guest here allows you to get a breakfast there for a few pounds. We chose the Cranbrook because of its cheap price and close to a tube station. All in all for the price you pay it was well worth it

Well, personally I believe as a hotel the key point is that hotel is able to provide an environment where customer can have a good sleep. However, the traffic noise is just unbearable. You cannot decide your own sleeping and waking up time the traffic does.

HUGELY ENJOYABLE STAY & VERY SATISFIED WITH EXPECTATIONS EXCEEDED AT THE CRANBROOK. THE CRANBROOK IS ONE OF THE BEST PERFORMING STRONGEST BUDGET/MID-RANGE HOTELS IN ILFORD. THE ISSUE IS THAT LONDON ECONOMICAL VALUE HOTELS CAN BE FULLY BOOKED DURING HIGH SEASON. IF YOU DONT FANCY £400/£500 HILTON ROOM RATES THEN ILFORD IS AFFORDABLE & ACCESSIBLE. EXCELLENT TRANSPORT LINKS INTO CENTRAL ZONE 1. BUS SERVICES CONNECT TO UNDERGROUND GANTS HILL OR TOTTENHAM STATIONS ONLY A 30 MINUTE JOURNEY AWAY. VERY WELL SITUATED. I HAD AN ANNEX ROOM - A9-WHICH IS IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO THE MAIN BUILDING. A-ROOMS ARE REFURBISHED & EVERYTHING WORKED WITH A CONTINOUS SPEEDY WIFI SIGNAL. LOVELY LARGE ENSUITE ROOM WITH LARGE CLEAN SHOWER ROOM. ALL STAFF VERY FRIENDLY & POLITE. FRESH TOWELS EVERYDAY & PLENTY OF HOT DRINKS & TOILETRIES. I COULDN'T FAULT THE STAFF. IF YOU ARE OPEN & DOWN TO EARTH WITH HOUSEKEEPING & RECEPTION THEN YOU ARE SURE TO GET THE SAME WARM, ATTENTIVE & PROFESSIONAL SERVICE BACK. WHOLEHEARTEDLY RECOMMEND & A GREAT MULTIPLE NIGHTS STAY WITH NO PROBLEMS. THERE ARE BASIC ROOMS IN THE MAIN BUILDING WHICH MAY SUIT WORKING CONTRACTORS LOOKING FOR HOME RENT PRICES FOR LONG BLOCK BOOKING STAYS ONLY SHARING FACILITIES SOMETIMES WITH ONE OTHER ROOM.

Very disappointed

I recently stayed at Britannia hotel, and unfortunately, my experience was extremely disappointing. Upon arrival, I encountered a receptionist who was very rude and seemed to have limited knowledge about their job. To make matters worse, I was forced to wait for an extended period in my car on a winter night while the receptionist tried to get their card machine working in order to take a deposit. This experience caused me an enormous amount of stress, discomfort, and frustration. As if that wasn't enough, the room that was assigned to me was located under the stairs next to a cleaning cabinet. This resulted in constant noise from people going up and down the stairs and cleaners going in and out of the cabinet, particularly early in the morning. The overall quality of service and the room's location made for a very unpleasant stay, and I would not recommend this place to anyone based on my experience. In conclusion, I hope that the management of the hotel takes this feedback seriously and implements necessary improvements to ensure that future guests do not have to endure similar issues. A pleasant and comfortable stay is an essential part of any hotel experience, and it is clear that improvements are needed in this regard.
