Having a hoist does not mean it reaches from the bed to the bathroom or fits under the bed.

What the source says

Bathroom
Very spacious accessible bathroom with a bathtub (shower over the bath, low edges) and many grab bars; no level-access shower
Other features
Hoist stored outside the accessible rooms and brought to the room if needed; level entrance; lifts; accessible parking spaces next to the door; in 2006 IHG announced ceiling-track hoists at this hotel, Holiday Inn London Kensington Forum and Crowne Plaza Heathrow; the current IHG UK page only mentions Crowne Plaza Heathrow (and Birmingham M6 J7, Cardiff) with a ceiling hoist that can be installed in one room if requested in advance; bedroom track separate from the bathroom track
Warnings and notes
Used to have a ceiling hoist; removed in 2020 and replaced by portable hoists (not usable for the bathtub). IHG's 2007 press release (stated by the hotel) gave a ceiling hoist; the 2020 news says it was removed and the current IHG page no longer mentions it. Confirm which hoist there is now. Bring a sling.
