Third time at the Zedwell and it is feeling like my London home away from home. Have gotten used to no windows and minimal decor. The one at Piccadilly is located near everything. It also is the best priced.

We were very happy during our 4 night stay. Located near a railway track, the noise didn’t bother us. Rooms very clean and the staff were lovely during check-in and the duration of our stay. Nice are and a 5 minute walk from Tower Bridge. Highly recommended.

I was born and worked in Croydon long time since I have been back and so sad to see it looking so run down and dirty. Did not feel safe either. Such a shame it could be a lovely town but definitely needs some TLC!

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

To be fair I didn't see much of Croydon. My stay was a break to unwind. I went as far as the local complex and TGI's. However, from past experience I would say Croydon is a good place to shop, eat and go to the cinema.
