Excellent Stay Near Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

convenient accessfriendly staffon-site parkingdated rooms
I booked this hotel for convenient access to a concert at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, about three miles away. The location offers easy access from the main road. On-site parking was available. The staff were very accommodating and friendly.
The rooms look a little dated. A refresh would be welcome. We had no remote for the room. I asked at reception, and they said they would send one, but it never arrived. Breakfast was overcooked.

Clean Rooms and Great Service

busy receptionistpolite servicecourteous service
The front of house staff was great. The receptionist was very busy during check-in, yet remained polite and courteous. He was obliging to requests and acknowledged everyone. He even brought my son ice and a plaster after we sat down.
The air conditioning unit in the room was faulty and dripped water onto the carpet, it made it difficult to sleep.
Service

The staff was supportive and professional. They responded swiftly to every request I made. I stored luggage and left valuables at reception. They also moved us to another room when we were unhappy with the assigned one.
Dining
