“Great Location for Events in ExCel arena”

Reviewed May 17, 2013 NEW

Stayed here for a night while attending a conference in the ExCel Centre. It's a great location for events in the ExCel arena as it's a 2min walk away. There was a great selection for breakfast, however, there is no free Wifi in the hotel.

“Really impressive”

Reviewed May 15, 2013 NEW

This hotel feels a cut above many others in the excel area - at least in the same price range. The staff are professional, the decor and cleanliness outstanding and the room spacious, well equipped and comfortable. Food is of a good quality and not badly priced. I remain bemused why hotels charge for wifi but Novotel does - penny... More

“Convenient and comfortable”

Reviewed May 14, 2013 NEW via mobile

Stayed here for a night before s conference at the ExCel centre. The location is next to the ExCel centre and only a few minutes from the DLR with most of the walk being under cover (in case of bad weather!). The surrounding area has a few restaurants but is otherwise fairly sterile and lacks any real character. The hotel... More

“Excellent hotel, clean, comfortable and excellently located.”

Reviewed May 9, 2013

I found this hotel to be perfectly located, close to the DLR and now with good links via the Emirates cable car to the O2 arena. The layout of the hotel is good and the rooms are clean, modern and comfortable. Both myself and my girlfriend found this to be the best hotel around and we would happily stay there... More

“Brilliant!”

We stayed at this hotel on the 5th of May, as we were attending the Beyonce concert across the River at the O2. The location is incredible- moments away from the tube station and the Emirates Air Line, which took us almost directly to the Arena. We were staying in room 925, a suite on the top floor, and it...

“There are other, much nicer, hotels in the vicinity”

Mistakingly booked here again not remembering I'd previously stayed and not enjoyed it! Hotel is located right next to the ExCeL (which was great) and is in a lovely little area next to the river. My 'deluxe' room was very much not 'deluxe' and with no air conditioning was simply unbearable to sleep in. TV service was a bit 'out-of-date'... More

“Perfect location for Excel”

Reviewed May 7, 2013

We chose this hotel to be near the Excel and we couldn't have been closer. It was also close to the cable car across the Thames and city airport. There is a DLR station within walking distance great for the O2 but getting to the West End requires 2 or 3 changes. The staff were helpful and there was a... More

I was expecting this hotel to be fantastic. But when we arrived at about 2.30 we were first told our room was not ready, even though check in is at 2... Then it took a further 15 minutes to check us in. The man behind the counter was very rude and spoke to us as if we were children. As... More
