The
Stratford
Hotel
London
is
a
chic
&
modern
hotel
situated
just
a
step
from
Stratford
International
and
a
few
steps
down
to
Westfield
Shopping
Mall.
We
arrived
at
dawn
and
the
lights
were
really
nice
and
pretty.
We
walk
in
through
the
lounge
and
bar,
really
modern,
warm
and
cosy
atmosphere.
At
the
corner
by
the
lifts
is
the
hotel
reception
area
Reed
Diffuser
scented
by
Jo
Malone
(if
I
remember
correctly).
The
check
in
process
was
swift
and
we
were
on
our
way
to
our
room.
A
lil
back
story,
London
is
our
first
stop
to
our
3
weeks
Europe
trip.
Our
journey
to
get
to
The
Stratford
Hotel
London,
we
flew
about
17
hours
to
Heathrow,
2
hours
to
pass
customs,
immigration
&
baggage
claim.
Another
1
hour
on
the
Elizabeth
line
to
arrive
to
the
hotel.
So
after
check
in,
we
got
into
our
room,
cosy
and
warm.
It
had
all
the
amenities
a
4
stars
should
have,
thick
towels
bathrobe
and
hotel
slippers.
Ritual’s
shower
and
shampoo
was
also
a
good
touch.
Really
comfy
bed
and
nice
shower.
Once
again
they
have
great
lighting
throughout
the
room.
The
only
downside
after
we
enter
the
room
was
when
we
open
the
curtain
to
say
hello
to
London.
We
were
facing
the
loading
bay
of
the
shopping
mall
and
train
track.
Not
a
big
deal
and
it
didn’t
bother
us
much
as
we
were
also
mostly
out.
But
would
have
been
epic
if
we
have
some
view
of
East
London.
On
the
second
day,
after
housekeeping,
we
noticed
that
the
2
glass
bottled
filled
with
drinking
filtered
water
was
left
empty.
After
checking
with
reception,
we
found
out
that
the
water
is
only
provided
on
the
first
night
stay.
If
we
need
more
water,
we
have
to
bring
down
the
glass
bottles
to
be
filled
at
the
bar.
We
just
have
to
let
the
bartenders
know
that
we
are
guests
staying
at
the
hotel.
Strange
but
let’s
try.
So
the
quest
to
get
drinking
water
journey
begins.
I
went
down
with
2
empty
glass
bottles.
Told
the
bartender
that
I
am
a
guests
and
just
need
to
fill
up
the
bottles
with
filtered
water.
I
think
each
bottle
is
about
600ml.
Each
time
I
went
down
i
have
to
use
the
same
script
when
I
see
a
different
bartender
otherwise
I
have
to
pay.
Imagine
going
down
and
up
for
water
about
3
or
4
times
in
2
days
stay.
Apart
from
the
effort,
waiting
at
the
bar
to
get
the
bartender
and
then
waiting
for
the
bartender
to
get
glass
bottles
filled
from
the
back.
I
appreciate
the
effort
and
don’t
mind
waiting
but
it
can
be
awkward.
Sometimes
the
bar
gets
quite
busy.
In
the
end,
I
just
decided
to
do
a
pit
stop
at
Waitrose
in
Westfield
to
get
2
bottled
water
everyday
till
our
check
out.
We
stayed
in
total
5
nights
mid
Jan
24.
We
heard
from
some
friends
from
London
that
tap
water
is
safe
to
drink
but
the
hotel
doesn’t
indicate
that
in
the
room
with
a
sign
that
the
tap
water
is
safe
to
drink.
Or
perhaps
consider
putting
filtered
hot
and
cold
water
stations
for
guests
on
each
floor
or
just
1
at
the
lobby.
Thank
you
for
reading
till
the
end.
All
in
all
we
can’t
complain
about
our
stay
at
The
Stratford
London
Hotel.
Good
location,
great
design,
clean
and
comfy.
Useful
outdoor
area
for
smoking
with
heater
lamp
to
keep
us
warm
during
the
cold.
Close
by
one
of
the
biggest
mall
in
the
UK
if
you
like
shopping.
We
find
the
mall
convenient
for
food,
clothes
and
other
supplies
for
our
travel.
