MOXY London Stratford
10/10 Excellent
"
Stayed at Moxy Stratford multiple times and it never disappoints. Rooms are modern, clean, and comfortable. The TV is easy to connect to with Netflix and YouTube, and the sensor lights by the bed are a great touch for night-time trips to the bathroom.
The location is excellent — very easy access from Stratford station, plus convenient bus links to Stansted via Flibco and National Express.
Check-in is flexible and straightforward, and the check-in/lounge area is a good space if you need to wait or spend some time there. Late check-out is also great value at just £10.
I’ve stayed here more than five times and will definitely continue coming back."
