Crystal Palace Concert Stop-Off

Very friendly staff, no issues dropping a bag off at lunchtime, then checking in later at night, after a concert. Room was clean and modern and everything worked. Breakfast was improved from other Express hotels I've stayed in a while ago, a good amount of choice and all fresh, pretty much a full buffet, plus cold items; certainly much better than I expected. Very happy with that aspect. 10 minute walk from East Croyden Train Station through the town, very easy to find. 410 bus to Crystal Palace Park from the side of the station, easy peasy.

Good budget option for Croydon

Good hotel a little hidden away and could do with more lighting on the approach as the access isn't very friendly.

Comfortable bed, great beddings and towels, toiletries great smelling, clean and very efficient. Check in very quick, friendly and very helpful staff. Lots of cafe and restaurants close by. Didn't like the way you either showered or used the toilet...tiny room meant you showered and washed the toilet and walls at the same time!
