Fantasy value for money- clean, comfortable and secure- important for us as we are women. We had good selection of towels, clean serviceable shower, kettle with biscuits, tea etc. We had dinner in the lounge bar next door and again it was really good value @ around £12 for mains. Lounge had a good vibe- not overly busy but definitely not dead! Thank you

Email sent to you already. you have asked them to refund my money with compensation. I am still waiting for your positive reply. Dear Sir/Madam, In reference to the booking no: 4979826225 for my stay in Ilford, Essex, England from 6th April until 14th April, I want to inform you about my experience with Britannia Inn Hotel: After my long tiring flight from Lahore to London for 16 hours and then from Heathrow airport to Ilford journey by train for 90 minutes followed by a long walk from Ilford station with a heavy suitcase and hand luggage, I was expecting my nice stay at Britannia, Ilford. But on my arrival at 9:00 PM, 6thApril, I was told after taking £100 for security purpose that there was no space available for me and therefore they would book another hotel which was shocking and quite painful for me. It never happened to me before as I had booked hotels so many times through you. It took about an hour for the lady at reception to book a place at Best Western hotel, argyle road, Ilford. I was not happy with the room condition of this hotel either but I was left with no choice. The entire exercise was done without giving me any other options. Due to no communication, with the customer before arrival and bad management on arrival I request you to refund my money back into my account, otherwise I may think about taking a legal action. Yours Sincerely, Prof Dr Iqtadar Seerat

Ilford Luxury Apartments, hotel in Ilford

Located just 7 minutes’ walk from Ilford Rail Station, Ilford Apartments offer modern self-catering accommodation with free WiFi and free on-site parking.

Before we started our trip it was hard to get in contact with someone about picking up the keys. We were arriving on a Sunday, when the business that normally hands out the keys was closed (there is no one on the actual accommodation site, it's all automated codes). We tried sending a couple of messages in booking.com, but they were not answered. However, after ringing the accommodation's phone number, their staff member was very helpful, and arranged us to meet someone at the reception of a near by hotel. That person was very helpful and getting in from there was easy. The accommodation is nice and modern, with all the amenities described. The area is quite and peaceful. There are a large range of stop in the Ilford shopping center (about 500m walk away) and the Elizabeth Line train station is also the same distance nearby.

More Than Just a London Suburb

Ilford benefits from a train station on the fast line between Liverpool Street and Shenfield. Since Stratford, site of the Olympic Park, is only a few stations away, Ilford rose in international popularity during the build-up to the 2012 Games. However, location isn't all it has going for it.

The Borough of Redbridge is run from its Grade II-listed Victorian town hall, on a pedestrian precinct which includes the Ilford Exchange shopping centre. To the west is another Grade II-listed building: the 12th-century Hospital Chapel of St Mary and St Thomas of Canterbury.

The UK’s only complete mammoth skull was found underneath the high street and is now displayed in London’s Natural History Museum. Redbridge Museum houses more archaeological finds, and the 17th-century Valentines Mansion features a Victorian kitchen and beautiful gardens.

Actually outside of the capital when built, the mansion is now firmly within Greater London and is surrounded by Valentines Park with its boating lake and cricket pitch where Essex County once played.

The diverse cuisine of Ilford’s restaurants reflects its multicultural population, and there are also several good bars and a club near Gants Hill Tube station that is popular with reality TV stars. Nearby Ilford accommodation on Booking.com includes hotels with parking and cheap guest houses.

    As a black person I felt comfortable among the Asian population and I saw other persons of color as well. The town is lively and friendly. The Turkish food was a blast. The shopping center has almost everything. For black women, there's a hair shop in the main shopping area. The prices are reasonable for London

    A total surprise and I was kicking myself for not trying Signature before. The least assuming entrance opened up to a clean well run,elegant(for Ilford) hotel. The staff was efficient,well spoken and kind with a quick readiness to provide anything to improve your stay,personaly delivering extra milk etc moments after hearing of the need. And Quiet,the place was gentility in middle of Ilford high street,which is a miracle achievement of note. Best wifi ever.Spacious shower-toilet. A true find..A Thank you to the management and architects.

    Really good location, close to the station, and really easy to access central London from there. The Neighbourhood was really quiet and we felt safe in this hotel(which was super important for us because we were 3 girls). Room was really clean and well equiped, we got everything we asked for. There was a daily cleaning and a towel change service which is definitly a plus. Guys on the reception were amazing, kind and really helpful, loved them! :)
