Parking was easy. Free parking all weekend across the road.

Staff booked us in quickly and let us into the hotel. The room was compact, the bed was clean.

Unfortunately both mugs were dirty, as if they had been used and not cleaned at all. I went down to get them changed which they did straight away.

The door to the bathroom was very sticky, to the point we actually didn't want to shut it after the first time for fear of getting stuck. Bathroom was clean though and shower was hot.

The music is loud, we were fine with it as we weren't looking to sleep too early. It finished at around 1am. They did provide ear plugs but unless you sleep like the dead or are already awake it will likely be noticeable.

For the price couldn't complain about the room. Bed was comfy and we booked it at short notice due to bus replacement services running. Handy if travelling on Elizabeth Line due to it's location. We knew we were staying above a pub but they provided ear plugs which was a nice touch.

Car park opposite was a good rate & free overnight. Check in quick & friendly. Not a problem for me but stairs to room really steep so maybe an issue for others. Room clean, plenty of towels, comfy bed. When I spotted earplugs I worried it would be noisy, not at all. I slept with the window open & didn’t stir all night (without earplugs) Train line opposite but only a very slight rumble that’s all. Few minutes walk from Seven Kings station into London. Overall a great stay & would stay again if in the area.

Rooms not practical

Room very basic with no surface to put your stuff on tea making tray is on the one bedside cabinet next to your head while in bed! Had to put it on the floor for safety. This room had space for a desk so it should have one the floor was littered with our belongings. The pillows and duvet are old discolored and flat! We bought two pillows!
When asked for the three magners in a bucket at the bar we were told they had discontinued that offer but it was on sale the following night. Also residents bar discount was discontinued. beware live music very loud until 2am fri and Sat. No chance of sleeping!

Friendly and welcoming

Fantastic stay for MCM Comic Con at the Excel centre. The family that run the pub as well as the hotel are lovely and so friendly, the room was cosey but perfect for our stay. We usually put a do not disturb sign on when we're staying for a few nights, as we are happy to use towels for a few days and think about the eco impact of having your room cleaned everyday. On our second day back we found a bag on the door and a note with some extra tea and sugar as well as fresh towels if we wanted them, which we've never had before and is so, so kind.

The food in the pub is lovely as well and was a great place to eat, but there are loads of options in the area!

The music is loud and stops at about 2am over the weekend and midnight during the week, but for us on the top floor it wasn't too bad and we could still get to sleep during it. Would definately come back and stay.

Good location and Food, downhill from there

Good and bad,
Let’s start with the Positives,
Location - 2 min walk from Seven Kings station, Parking opposite is free at weekends, Food - very nice and well priced.
Negatives - Air Con/heating was broken in the room, managed to turn it off manually in the end but room was roasting hot, being above a pub meant the Fight outside was rather loud as we were forced to keep the window open due to the heat ( in February!?) Shower - only just worked enough to be called a shower, more of a watering can trickle. And the big one for me, Cleanliness….. hairs in multiple places and we were joined in the restaurant by a mouse, live and rather calm in it’s surroundings so likely staying for a long stay too.

Cheap

I have never written a bad review, however, I don't want anyone else booking the room type that sleeps 3!

Upon arrival we collected the key from the bar, we were shown where abouts our room was at the end and left. Weirdly we were shown where the smoking area was, but not how to check out (we did work it out) or any other house keeping.

PROs
Cheap
Free parking at weekends opposite

CONs
The room type is falsley advertised and DOES NOT sleep 3! Specific room type booked was a twin room that sleeps 3 (other rooms stated sleeping 2), however, ONLY has 2 beds, no rollaway or occasional bed made up, no extra bedding, towels etc.

The 2 beds were very uncomfortable, very hard and could feel the springs and bed lining had marks.

Broken TV and remote control snapped with battery compartment exposed.

Broken kettle.

Noisey - you hear everything in the corridors, even hearing the guest in the room next door go to the toilet.

We were aware that there is live music until 2am.

No / very little phone reception

I am quite shocked that the guesthouse did not a) contact us before arrival to advise the room type that sleeps 3, in fact does NOT or b) have a rollaway/temporary bed for the 3 person.

It was a good place for an emergency stay-over, but with the double bed and the pull-out bed it was extremely cramped, hard to maneuver to the bathroom, and the bathroom was also very cramped. But all it was sufficient for us, and we can’t complain as customer service booked it at the last minute when our VRBO booking fell through while traveling on the train from Edinburgh. So thank you McCafferty and thank you VRBO customer service for finding it

Great pub and hotel, the staff were all lovely and friendly happy to help you with a smile. There is a car park and bus stop right outside also the train station is only a couple of hundred yards away.we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The meals were excellent. The room was clean and had everything needed including AC. Only problem for me was two flights of stairs Im not very mobile with arthritis in my knees and hips. Also the breakfast service doesn’t start until 10am and I would have loved to have been able to have breakfast there it looked very tasty! I will certainly be back and asking for a first floor room!

The staff were friendly and on the morning we were checking out we were still having breakfast, I asked the lady who was working there if it was ok to finish our breakfast and then check out, she looked into this for us and it was agreed that we could finish our breakfast and then check out, nothing seemed to much trouble.
If you are staying here please do not take room 6, this room is right above the bar area and although I like a good party, I do not want to be awake listening to dance music with the room vibrating from the music, for this reason I will not stay again.

What can one say, a more welcoming, friendly and accomodating staff one could not wish for, the food is great and they pull a perfect guinness. YET it must be said, the accomodation has past it's prime, no matter what the staff do to help everything is run down with practically all fittings and such being broken or almost, the only redeeming feature are the good beds and the good wifi. It's a pity but it's the truth, MacCafferty's needs at least a good maintenance staff to go through the place, and at best a complete overhaul. One could go into detail but enough said.

Liked the free weekend parking , ease of check in although bit later than anticipated ( nothing to do with guesthouse) room was fine, and we were informed by staff re the likelihood of some noise due to a live band performing in the pub, we were aware of exterior noise but it was not overly loud and didnt prevent sleep. Plenty of stairs to navigate as room 11 is on top floor but otherwise a pleasant overnight stop. Suited our purpose as close to Seven Kings station on the Elizabeth Line just 5 stops from Stratford.

Decent guesthouse accommodation situated above a lively Irish bar/lounge. Rooms are compact but have everything you need for a short stay. Had an evening meal and breakfast in the bar and food was great! 👍

The property was very dirty and dated. The toilet moved when I sat on it, The blinds could not be retracted to get sunlight into the room.

The shower tray had mold around it, no landline phone in the rooms to get assistant.

No one at the reception desk ever to speak to.

Bed sheets had turning brown from white. Friday night, Saturday night and Sunday night loud music noise from the bar below.

Loud

The room itself was fine and clean. However, we were disappointed that there was very loud music which made it impossible to sleep until into the early hours.

Staff could not do enough to help
And very friendly food and Guinness was quality and fair priced. Room was smal but adequate. It is not a 5 star hotel but I will stay again very good price for what I paid. The only downside was they do not do a breakfast. If they did it would be a game changer

Perfetto

Il pub è carinissimo, in stile irlandese. Ottima e abbondante la colazione!
Buona scelta di birre per la sera.
Le stanze sono piccole, ma comode e funzionali.
Siamo stati veramente bene!

Well, we had a terrible experience from this hotel, after check in we went out with our friends and came back at around 12pm when we open the door it was almost like raining inside the room, the bed was all wet and water was still coming down cz someone was taking shower upstairs. We reported it to the staff and they were super nice to us, we waited for 20 minutes to sort that up, but we were still wondering they don’t have a reception at night time, what if we were a bit more late, we would have suffered the whole night.
