Guest Reviews
- Z9039OZrebeccal (10/5): Great location! - Fabulous time.
Well catered for and the lad on the bar and front desk went above and beyond to help with anything we needed (i didnt get their names sadly).
One of the nights Jennifer looked after us for food and she was great too.
Thanks, will definatley stay again and reccomend
- 374phoebee (10/5): My experience staying at the Travelodge - Lovely service especially from Jennifer our waitress! And the staff at the bar were superb
Definitely recommend and would come back!
- Fearless591359 (10/5): Waterloo Travel Lodge - We stayed here for 3 nights and had dinner one night and breakfast on 3 mornings. Staff are very friendly and make you feel welcome. All meals were amazing. Room was clean and well stocked. We received extra coffees from reception when we required it. Hotel is about 5mins walk from Waterloo station and about 20 mins from London Eye so very easy to get around London. Would recommend this hotel.
- T4697KBbeths (10/5): Jennifer was fab - Great service - Jennifer was amazing and a real joy. Coffee was hot which was a win.
- R6668MKemilyw (10/5): Jennifer 10/10 server! - Went with my family for dinner, we were served by Jennifer. She is such an asset to team, gave amazing customer service and was so attentive throughout our meal. Serving with a smile and good attitude the whole way through! :)
- O9820NCdonnal (6/5): It was okay! - Conveniently located for Waterloo and Westminster.
Stayed in Room 845, which was a weird shape, rendering the desk area unusable.
Skirting boards in the room needed a dust and the TV remote was temperamental.
Would I say again, yes for the location, not for the room or the staff, who were not that welcoming.
It was okay!
- songyiy2026 (10/5): Excellent service - Got excellent service from Fatima.
Huge thanks to her!
- happyhom (8/5): Such an easy stay and good value - Room 325 nice clean and quiet room. Comfortable bed and breakfast at the hotel. Plenty of choice and good value for the price. Such nice staff keeping everything running and items topped up
- yeo739 (10/5): Good stay overall - Stayed at Travelodge and had a good experience overall. The room was clean, comfortable, and good value for money. The location was convenient and the staff were friendly. Breakfast was simple but fresh and filling, a good way to start the day. The AC sometimes made noise at night, but overall the stay was pleasant. đ
- O5693LSlj (8/5): Good overall - Nice room, comfy bed, nice modern bar area.

Good value

- sofiarB3326WY (10/5): Best hotel in london - I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in London. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect. The rooms were extremely clean and very comfortable, which made it easy for us to relax after a long day exploring the city.
The price for the rooms was also really good, especially considering the quality of the hotel and the excellent location. Itâs conveniently located near the Underground and very close to the London Eye, which made getting around and visiting attractions incredibly easy.
The overall atmosphere of the hotel was warm and welcoming, and we felt really well taken care of throughout our stay. A special thank you to Fatima, who was truly the best host ever. She was incredibly kind, helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed.
I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting London and would happily stay here again in the future.

- 151theresad (6/5): MmmmâŚokay but wouldnât stay again. - Have stayed here before and location is excellent. Room was clean, but the bed was really uncomfortable and made our backs ache. Strong smell of weed in the bathroom as well. Breakfast was chaotic and kept running out of food - clearly canât cater for the number of guests. Staff were really friendly but, all things considered, probably wouldnât stay here again.
- Q8894DGlaural (10/5): A* - Thank you for a great stay and lovely breakfast
- Dream42604057214 (10/5): Great place to get your head down in central London. - Great place to get your head down in central London.
- heatherdN5068KE (10/5): We'll be back - Only a 5 minute walk from Waterloo Station and with a bus stop almost outside this was very convenient for our trip up to Wembley, over to Canary Wharf and for going to Covent Garden for a wander around. Reception staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was comfortable and roomy - we'd upgraded to a Superroom. We hadn't intended to but decided to have breakfast there. We could have eaten cheaper at the Wetherspoons in Waterloo but the Travelodge was good value for money with plenty to choose from. We left our suitcase at the hotel after we'd checkout so we didn't have to lug it around with us while sightseeing before getting the train home - this was a big bonus for us.
- avak280 (8/5): Breakfast - Breakfast was lovely and Shameda served the six of us with great help and service
- danielwD853WQ (10/5): Breakfast - Brilliant breakfasts, very friendly staff , clean roomsss

- 63Richmonf (10/5): Weekend break with Grandaughters - Perfect location and a very welcoming arrival by the front desk.
The rooms are value for money and everyone we wanted for a short weekend break.
All the staff are friendly, helpful and cheerful, big shout out to Ellis (front desk) & (Shamida) at breakfast.
- Inspire64505083037 (10/5): Really good experience, I can only recommend. - I can only recommend Travelodge. I really was surprised by the atmosphere, the confort and the service that is offered. Beds are confortable, I slept really good. The room I was in (742) had a great view. Surprisingly clean as well. There wasn't any noise at night. The light buttons are so useful as well. My card access did not work but they took it in charge really quickly and were very helpful.
Employees here are a sunshine. Food is really good as well. I recommend having the breakfast !
Thank you Travelodge Waterloo, I will definitely stay here again :)
- Fearless495606 (10/5): Really lovely staff at breakfast, super friendly! Great location and good size family rooms, very close to Water - Great staff at breakfast they are super friendly. Good location close walking distance to Waterloo. Good size family rooms

- rachelsE4894TV (10/5): Very helpful and friendly team - Very helpful and friendly team. The breakfast had a variety of options and was good value. My daughter loved the tasty sausages.
- K9426HZtinaw (10/5): Excellent place to stay, recommended to my family & fruends - Very convenient location. Excellent staff, very friendly, nothing too much trouble.
Hotel very clean & excellent breakfast
- 759roseb (10/5): Great place to stay! - Staff are very friendly and helpful - nothing was too much trouble! Clean, fresh facilities and very convenient for Waterloo station and buses!
- RosycheeksUk (6/5): Frustrating stay - I had paid extra to pick a room on the top floor on the quiet street but hadn't anticipated how noisy it would be inside the room! Continual plant room type hum and an intermittent noise which was possibly water going through pipes? Room was clean however and shower was hot but one of those annoying shower curtains hung in the wrong place so the water just falls on the floor. Soap/Shampoo smelt nice but a little drying on the skin.
I had paid for breakfast when I checked in but I was not 'on the list' when I went to breakfast. Had to go back upstairs to find my card receipt and take it to reception. Even then I was told it 'wasn't on the system' and she couldn't find the vendor receipt from the card machine so I was judged suspiciously although they did allow me to have breakfast. Breakfast was ok and overall good value. When I went back to my room after breakfast my key card didn't work so back to reception I went.....
Overall quite frustrating and wish I hadn't bothered paying extra for what I thought would be a quieter room.
- PaulY1146 (10/5): Welcoming staff - Bridgette was very welcoming and lovely. Friendly and very hard working. Rooms lovely and clean and comfortable.
- Scenic18742091269 (10/5): Great stay. Friendly helpful staff - Excellent service. Recommend the super rooms. I stay in london regularly this is my new favourite travelodge! The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly. Nothing too much trouble. The room was clean and fresh.
- iztarrant (10/5): Love it - Shameda is the best. Had a wonderful stay. Super easy and love breakfast, huge selection with veggie sausages as well!!
- 530cliven (10/5): Good value - Good value traveldge. Breakfast good. Happy to recommend to others looking for somewhere to stay in Central London. Clean and tidy. Some tools are a bit tired.
- L9425EEnathans (8/5): Great Affordable Hotel in Central London - Great hotel, affordable location in Central London. Staff are lovely
- 461sammiem (6/5): Family birthday weekend. - Location really good as 5-10 min walk from the London Eye. Room was decent all you need is a bed to sleep in as alot to do around the area. Value for money for a few nights stay. Overall very clean always someone cleans as you walk around the hotel. Noise level on first night wasn't so good but was on a Friday night so was to be expected. Restaurant on one night in the evening waited over 45 mins for our food to come out. But all staff were apologetic and explained there was a fault in one of the cookers as it wasn't reported the previous day. Definitely will be back. Thank you very much.
- Lisa05willis (8/5): Would definitely stay here again! - Great place. Would definitely stay again. Only 4 stars as our room was a little cold but when we asked staff immediately got an extra duvet for us. Really friendly, helpful staff. Nice bar for the evening and good breakfast. Much more than you would expect from a Travelodge and a great, central location.
- Y9266FJadamc (10/5): Lovely - Nice & accommodating, welcoming staff & quick service. Rooms are nice and comfy beds, spacious and clean. Itâs fairly quiet where it is situated.
- Tour05157178201 (8/5): Decent but long waits on food at night - Lovely hotel, staff very friendly. Misses out on 5 as took forever to get in as no keys were working on the front door; and staff didnât pass on food orders to the night team at handover so it took forever to get our order. Otherwise, hotel very clean, room pleasant, breakfast selection good. Good travelodge overall really!
- 592georgiaw (8/5): Nice night away - Great location central to the Waterloo area. Friendly staff upon arrival and helpful to our needs. Bedrooms are comfortable and the family room is very large with ample space for a family of 4. Good value for money for central London.
- E6317LPkirstenw (10/5): Lovely, affordable experience - Comfortable beds, clean, friendly staff, lovely breakfast and simple necessities all met. If you want an affordable weekend stay with family or friends this hotel is perfect.
- D7242OCclairew (10/5): Great weekend stay - Pleasantly surprised perfect location to all attractions, great value for money.
Room was clean, spacious and beds comfy.
Had breakfast here great selection of food.
Helpful staff and catered for our needs as a family with disabled guest.
- N1842YVbriank (10/5): Great customer service - Great customer service- friendly staff. Decent room size. Ask the facilities and amenities required are on site. The young bar staff. Australian girl and Young English lad with the beard were very respectful and eager to help.
Morning breakfast staff were exceptional. Brilliant and many thanks.
- 123lizzyj (10/5): Steps from Waterloo station - The hotel is clean and safe and the staff are helpful and kind. Access to a full breakfast on site is also useful but I was out too early to take advantage this time. This is my third visit in less than a year and it is an excellent choice for solo women.
- P4229NRbookdragon (10/5): Highly recommend - We stayed at Travellodge in Waterloo, each time we come to London this is where we choose to stay. The atmosphere is very welcoming and so are the staff, very friendly and always smiling.
They also cater to a lot of dietary needs too with a good variety food and drink, especially at breakfast.
- mattcK271QY (10/5): Great family room in central London - Room size was really good for a family of 4, meaning the kids weren't on top of each other.
Location was perfect for visiting London, with the London Eye visible from our bedroom window.
Checkout time was at 12:00, m meaning we didn't need to rush around in the morning after a late night watching plays at the West End.
- joycecG5729PN (10/5): Great family experience - Had booked family room as travelling with 2 teenagers. It's the biggest family room we have ever stayed in. Rooms clean, no concerns. Very reasonably priced. Close to Waterloo station. Breakfast good and well priced, only missing fried eggs as personal preference!
- nkbur93 (8/5): Great location and great staff. - Fantastic staff who were all friendly and welcoming. Hotel is in a great location especially for the price. Room was basic but functional which is to be expected, could do with a deep clean but no complains with level of cleanliness at surface level. Breakfast was good value, well stocked and not chaotic despite it being a weekend over the holidays. Would definitely recommend for a short break .
- wyaneta2026 (8/5): Surely a recommended place - Good customer service and breakfast. Very good location. But same breakfast every day. Had to get 2 rooms for a family of five which doubled the price. And In between rooms there wasn't any reception and couldn't use mobile data as WiFi.
- ianwL5491MD (10/5): Short family break in london - Great location only 10 min walk from underground... lovely staff, we had a good size family room that was quiet. Breakfast was also nice and easy.

Friendly, helpful, and supportive staff.
Good services, including room service and complimentary breakfast (often Ă la carte or vegetarian options).
Convenient location for budget travelers; some guests appreciated late-night food arrangements and overall value.
- sylviabT904GI (10/5): Fab weekend with family and friends - Excellent service and location , staff friendly and welcoming, breakfast was amazing , would definitely stay here again!
- joyceaJ1788BE (10/5): Amazing - Always superb. Food is excellent. I think I would suggest to put some air freshener or a bit of perfume spray in every room as the room has its strong smell, Iâm not sure if itâs from the carpet or toilet.
- Q3596BUdaver (10/5): Great - Stay was nice breakfast was good
Great team . Room was nice and clean. Nice bed. Good hotel will come back here thank you teamâ.
- Navigator22175440345 (10/5): Family overnight stay in London - Friendly and helpful staff,brilliantly located and easy to walk to from the train station, closed to so many amenities and walking distance from some iconic landmarks
- 957livt (10/5): Great stay! - Really great room, very clean and well kept. Had the unlimited breakfast in the morning, which was very well prepared and fantastic value!
- mariamkD7377NA (10/5): Ellis and Pariss - 5* đđź - Ellis at reception has a magnetic personality and with a warm greeting that we received from him, he is management material and should be made manager.
Before we checked out, we met Pariss who also had a magnetic personality as well.
We had a 5* stay at the Travelodge - highly recommended! đ
- kevinnR7725XN (4/5): Uncomfortable experience with staff during breakfast - We stayed at Travelodge London Central Waterloo for three nights. Overall, the hotel is okay for a short stay, but we had some issues that made our experience less enjoyable.
The breakfast itself was alright, but during our first breakfast, a staff member, Shameda, approached our table with a Tripadvisor QR code and insisted that we should write a review. When we explained we had only been at the hotel for half a day, she said we could just review the breakfast. Once on the website, she stood behind us constantly, clicked â5 starsâ on our screen, offered to write the review for us, and even suggested what we should write. We politely declined, but she stayed and continued pressuring us. She also clicked on the screen to ensure our reviews were submitted. Fortunately, the network on my phone failed, but my brotherâs review was briefly published before we managed to delete it.
Other aspects of the stay: the beds were quite hard, the shower had poor water pressure, one of our rooms was out of soap in the shower, and the cleanliness was not great, especially in the shower. My father also found a long hair in the tomato beans at breakfast.
This was only a three-night stay, but we would not choose to return. The pressure to leave a positive review was very uncomfortable and inappropriate.
- mevlided2025 (10/5): Breakfast/Staff - Very, very friendly staff. The breakfast really surprised me. Very extensive, truly everything you could need was there. Even gluten-free options.
- G4800NJlouisew (10/5): Excellent staff - Rooms are as expected for a budget hotel. The staff however were 5 star - every single one we spoke to was fantastic. Especially the lady on reception on Saturday, Shameda and Nite in the restaurant on Sunday. Many thanks.
- adelec937 (10/5): Great for families - Great location for short walk to Thames with kids. Nice comfy room with a view. Staff very friendly. Lots of choice at breakfast, clean stylish restaurant.
- hydek (8/5): Good value for central London - Location really good for attractions on the southbank and only 5 mins to Waterloo station. Breakfast was tasty and totally worth doing. Paid in full in advance for breakfast though and then found out kids eat for ÂŁ1. Would have been better to pay on the day at the venue. Room was basic but
did the job for one night. Overall would recommend as value for money.
- deniseclarem (8/5): Great experience - Location is very easy to find. Common areas such as the lounge and their dining areas are clean. Service staff are very accommodating and helpful.
- kyont2025 (10/5): Price and service - Decent breakfast, Spread was surprising good for the price you pay. Service was remarkable, staff very friendly and helpful.

- pourya81 (8/5): The room was clean, and the hotel overall was very clean. The staff were friendly and helpful, which made our stay more - Overall, our stay at the hotel was a good experience and we were satisfied with the staff, cleanliness, and facilities.
However, the only negative point was the room temperature. Unfortunately, the room was not warm enough, and it seemed that the heating system was not working properly, which made the stay uncomfortable at times.
I hope this issue will be addressed in the future to improve guestsâ experience.
