Newham Hotel

Awful place! I had booked 2 nights and had I arrived earlier I would never have stayed the 1 night I unfortunately had to endure! Room 8 - awful drainage smell in room, cracked sink, dirty walls and curtains, damp patches on ceiling and walls, rotten bathroom door, dirty unhygienic kettle, smashed light and electric sockets, cigarette burns on bedding and furniture, can hear other guests TV and snoring ALL NIGHT, shower not working and to make it worse I was told they couldn’t change the room until the next day! But they did let me go into other guests rooms unaccompanied to use their shower! Firstly Room 1 but no hot water then Room 27 which had no water pressure! Unbelievable that I was allowed into other guests rooms! These other rooms were as bad as Room 7! The place is awful! Avoid at all costs!

After reading some pretty awful reviews, we were pleasantly surprised with the hotel considering the price we paid and the star rating advertised. The only downside was no side lamp in the room and there were rips in the net curtains. Other than that, the bed linen was clean and the bathroom was cleaned to an ok standard. Not fantastic but adequate for one nights stay.

After being scared by some of the reviews I'd read I was pleasantly surprised. It's not a five star hotel, but I didn't pay for a five star! Bedrooms were clean, the bathrooms could've done with some tlc, discoloured grout etc but nothing major You do only get one pillow per person on the bed which isn't ideal, and I could've done with a face towel. Breakfast was lovely. Staff were helpful.

Avoid! Camping in a tent would have been an upgrade. If environmental health came here, this place would be closed down in a second. Pro’s: ⁃ Once we complained, we were moved to another room which was slightly better. ⁃ Toast and bacon was nice enough. ⁃ Reception staff were very helpful Cons: ⁃ they are overcharging people for a place that has toilets that don’t work properly, unsecured windows so anyone could break in, wallpaper hanging off the walls, a broken bed to sleep on, one pillow which was thinner than paper, dirty stained carpets which looked like it had never seen a hoover, and bedding was covered in stains on both beds! Screws and nails left on the floor! ⁃ Flies and moths were in the room when we got there too. ⁃ We got accused of lying about the broken bed and how it wasn’t like it before we came, even though we filmed the room as soon as we came in. ⁃ No air con or fan to cool the room at all. ⁃ Plug sockets are dangerously broken 😡 ⁃ The place overall is scruffy, outdated and unhygienic. ⁃ It says in reception ‘no refunds’ and no wonder why, they’d go bankrupt if they did! ⁃ Better off getting McDonald’s breakfast across the road. The mushrooms looked like they crawled out of a can. (aside from bacon and toast) ⁃ For a hotel that has at least 50/60 rooms, there is only 10 tables for breakfast, no cutlery other than a fork and you have to share one kettle with all other visitors at breakfast, which you can imagine how long that takes The skip outside looked cleaner… Not worth £80 for the night… wouldn’t stay here again if it was my last choice. This is worse than a budget hostel.

Stayed for 3 nights. On arrival to the hotel i met a very unsteady gentleman who was having difficulty pulling open the push open main door to the hotel... After helping him enter i went to reception to check in and a photocopy of my driving licence taken. Overpowering smell when i entered the room. Curtains were not long/wide enough for windows. Radiator was stone cold. The room came with a portable heater. This was plugged in the whole time i was in the room. Bathroom was very tiny, so much that the toilet was fitted at an angle so you could sit down but even then i could still wash my face whilst having a wee. Shower head was tiny. TV remote not the correct one for the tv so spent the first night watching Dave as i coulndt turn over, then found a button on the back of the tv! Staff were freindly and very helpful when the resident living there came back from work at 0430 for the second night running talking very loudly on his phone. He didnt do it on the third night but the really creeky floors woke me instead Spent the whole time in the room in bed with the heater on. So bloody cold and super excited to leave. I stayed for business reasons. I would not pay out of my own pocket to stay here

Terrible. Check in was slow with a grumpy man behind the desk. Demanding photo ID, from here I knew it was going to be bad. The room was dirty, they clearly have no cleaners or if they do they are visually impaired. Bed sheets had stains, shower was mouldy, carpet was wet. It sounded like a train went past every time someone walked down the corridor, not great at 2am, 3:30am and 4am. Check out was the best part. DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY.
