I really like the location of this hotel. We’ve stayed here as a family 7 times in the last 9 years and have always had a good experience. The hotel staff is warm, kind, and sincerely helpful (Paulina at the restaurant, Marco and Beata at the Front Desk, Shabani who drives the shuttle are all marvelous!), and although the hotel is now in need of updating, the rooms are still comfortable and clean. I was told they recently upgraded the temperature control system and the rooms feel a lot better now, much easier to regulate. Breakfast is varied and satisfying, with the main event being the traditional English breakfast (different types of eggs, back bacon, hash browns, sausage, mushrooms, baked beans, cold cuts, fresh fruit, several breads and pastries, yogurt, cereal, fruit juices, different kinds of coffee drinks). Restaurant service at night is good, decent choices, reasonably priced. The shuttle service to the Brent Cross Underground and Shopping Centre is regular and reliable (with set times during the day and night). Good wifi. The hotel is only about 20 mins from Central London by car, and it’s easy to catch a taxi to King’s Cross or St. Pancras. Heathrow Airport is maybe only 30-40 mins away as well. I’ve enjoyed every stay that I’ve had at the Holiday Inn Brent Cross and will continue patronizing it each time I find myself in London!
