Most obvious thing to say about this hotel is the location - miles from anywhere unless you're attending an event at Excel, which we weren't. Generally not very convenient, but I knew where the hotel was when I chose to stay there. The reason we stayed here was that we got a very good short-notice deal of £65 for the... more

Hotel was bland. There were too few reception staff meaning long queues. Car park was broken. Hotel is stuck in the middle of nowhere really, unless you're seeing something at Excel. more

This hotel is right next to the Excel exhibition centre in London Docklands. Note that unless there is an event going on, the centre is usually dead. There is ample parking on the ground floor for a fee. The hotel's reception is on the first floor. The Room: Clean with unpretentious modern decor. It has the usual things - bed,... more

Stayed with my sister as part of a coach weekend, so hotel price already included. Location convienient for O2, however we used our coach so unaware of transport links. Hotel and rooms exceptionally clean. If I had to find faults (to be pedantic) they would be that there are no locks on the bathroom doors, no washbasin in the WC,no... more

This place was immaculate, very clean room. Do not eat here as everythng is overpriced, if you go outside and walk around you will find plenty of resturants to eat by the water, which serve great food and are less expensive than the hotel. We actually stayed here as we were going to a concert at the o2, which was... more

Lovely hotel, will stay again in future.

The Hotel was clean and the staff were very helpful. Near City Airport but the noise was not too bad when windows... more

stayed 2 nights for a meeting at Excel centre. position is perfect for this. hotel is standard 'executive' style, let down in my view by rather hard bed, minimal and uncomfortable pillows and worn polycotton duvet cover . I paid a reduced rate and would certainly not think it worth the full rate of over £200 a night. Slow checkout... more
