Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has beautiful and modern rooms, perfect for a one-night stay, although they might feel tight and spartan for some. The location is exceptionally convenient, especially for events at nearby venues like the O2 Complex and London Stadium. The dining experience offers a diverse selection but may focus more on hip than core quality. Overall, a great option for those seeking a comfortable stay with friendly service in a prime location.
I was thrilled with the hotel's location, especially for quick access to the O2 Arena and Excel London. The rooms, albeit small, were very comfortable, clean, and perfect for my morning run around the harbor. The service was top-notch, with friendly and accommodating staff. The dining experience had its flaws but was salvaged by the delicious French pastries. Overall, a great value for money stay with some noise concerns from the nearby London City Airport.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic. The rooms were so clean, comfy, and offered great views. Everything was exactly as I had hoped for. The location was perfect for exploring London, and I couldn't find any faults with it.
The hotel has a lovely cafe, and coffee shop and bar on the ground floor, making it super kid-friendly. The rooms were simple, but my particular room felt awfully small. The plumbing issue with the toilet made it sound like a train on tracks every time it or my neighbor flushed, which was quite a nuisance. The staff were all friendly and super helpful, always ready to assist with anything. The location was very nice, offering excellent views and being close to the Excel center. The dining experience was okay, although slightly overpriced, and the bountiful spread was a nice touch. Overall, the hotel provided good value for money, especially for the event we attended at the Excel.
The hotel has small rooms but adequate for a short stay. Initially, there was a mix-up in the room assignment, but it was quickly resolved. It took a while to find the vent on the window. The service was friendly and accommodating, especially when we requested a room change to a twin room. The location is perfect for attending events at the Excel, close to London City airport, and offers a view of the water. The dining experience had a self-serve continental breakfast and was slightly challenging for a vegan diner. The hotel has a lovely cafe, coffee shop, and bar on the ground floor, making it a super kid-friendly location. The facilities were well-equipped with dry cleaning, housekeeping, laundry services, a welcome drink, and happy hour specials.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The room was compact but had everything I needed - a comfortable bed, a work desk, and a stunning view of the docks with twinkling lights. The cleanliness was top-notch, and the breakfast buffet was fantastic. The service was exceptional with friendly staff always ready to assist. The location was convenient for my visit to the O2 arena and exploring London. The dining experience was superb, offering a variety of fresh and delicious options.
The hotel is in a perfect location for the event we attended, with super friendly service. The rooms are small but suitable for a single traveler staying a couple of nights. The dining experience could have been better for specific dietary preferences, and the facilities were basic but functional.
The hotel is situated in a prime location near the cable car and docklands, making it convenient for visits to the O2 and Canary Wharf. The rooms, while clean, are on the smaller side and can feel damp and cold at night. The service provided by the staff is friendly and welcoming, ensuring a pleasant stay. Dining options are fresh but slightly overpriced, and the breakfast selection could be improved. The hotel's facilities are well-maintained, offering a comfortable experience overall.
