Nice getaway in Stratford from busy London City!

Excellent brand new place right in Stratford. Nearest takeaway places are an easy 2-3min walk away. The mall and London tube is only a 10-15min walk away. It's a paradise in the middle of Stratford really. The rooms are well appointed and were clean. Breakfast is quite basic with pastries, juice boxes and coffee (tea) available. The subway is easy enough to use to get you anywhere you need in London and Stratford is the right distance away from the central city to make for a nice evening after a long day of sightseeing. I recommend this hotel, it is very nice. Service all round was excellent as well.
