What is your IHG Rewards Club status?
Spire Ambassador

Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Generally, OKish.

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Points stay, so booked a standard room, received a 1 level upgrade to a Deluxe room (I guess).

How are the rooms?
Tiny, but it has everything required for an overnight stay.

How is the Club Lounge?
Paid £78 per room. Breakfast was OK - you can order a la carte, which is great, however the service was too slow. Afternoon tea was great with some nice finger sandwiches and mini-cakes. Evening spread is a bit of a let down - the selection of food is very limited, no self-service, which is a downside.

Drink-wise, great London dry gin available + Moet really made our night.

What was your welcome gift?
Some biscuits, fruit, a bottle of water and a chocolate cake.

What was good and what was bad?
GOOD
Club lounge was pretty good, not great though.
Comfortable bed

BAD
Evening spread in the lounge could be better

Value for $ or Rewards Club Points?
With the standard room costs £469 a night 60K points is deffo a decent value. Would never pay the asking price for a stay at ICPL though.

Would you return?
Not really, I do prefer O2.
