Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Viking Hotel from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Viking Hotel is often praised for its convenient location, particularly for those attending events at the London Stadium, which is about a 20-minute walk from Stratford station; plus, a bus stop is conveniently located nearby. Many guests appreciate the spacious rooms, some of which include a fridge, and have noted the practicality of having an empty fridge to store food and drinks. While the decor may not be the most modern, and some guests have mentioned occasional maintenance issues like broken toilet roll holders, the hotel generally offers good value, especially considering the inclusion of free parking.

EXCELLENT stay!

spacious roompublic transportbroken holder
the room was spacious and clean. It included a fridge, REALLY useful during the hot weather. a big wall fan. i could leave my car in the car park after checkout to sightsee and got public transport info too.
the toilet roll holder in my room was broken. I had to keep the curtains ALWAYS drawn for privacy because of people looking in from the courtyard, so no natural light came in.

great locationsmoke smelllacking cleanliness
The location was GREAT, and the staff were helpful enough. The room offered ample space and felt acceptably warm.
The cleanliness was completely lacking. I also noticed a distinct smell of smoke in the room and it lingered. It was quite unpleasant. I think the hotel should address this issue .
