This hotel was roomy for a London hotel. Very convenient for us to be a short walk to restaurants and the cable car to the O2 arena. Conveniently located near Excel and the Elizabeth Line railway, which took us to Heathrow Airport any many tourist attractions without having to change trains. Would definitely recommend this hotel. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Maid service daily

Great base, Terrible Beds
Overall was a good base for what we were in London for. Right by the venue. However the beds were tremendously hard. Was like sleeping on a log.

Great for ExCel events!
This hotel is so close to ExCel! So very convenient. The breakfast buffet is very good too. One thing that could be improved is the outlet situation--it was very difficult and inconvenient to charge devices.

Great location
Always a good stay/ location for the horse show. Breakfast good choice but need more drinks machines or separate hot water for tea as 2 machines not enough for volume of customers. Reception toilets always smell stale though so please consider an air freshener with regular bursts !!

Mohammed at the desk was great. Inability to talk to hotel was frustrating from moment one. Expedia was not helpful there either. Could not adjust anything and though I told them well ahead one room would leave one day early there was no willingness to give credit…though we had 7 people for 6 nights. Nights were impossible to cool despite being cold outside. Needed a fan plus windows open to be bearable. That was for all 4 rooms. Also have two elevators to get from room to hotel exit.
