Great location to access the Excel Convention Centre. The hotel offered great service, with friendly staff and Fitness and restaurant amenities. However, the bed we gad was not comfortable, bumpy and squeaky. Thanks

Everything was very nice except for the pillows. They were probably the worst pillows I’ve ever slept on

The hotel location was perfect. However, there should be a fridge in the room, considering a hotel of this class.

Great location and super clean.
Our room was exceptionally clean. The air con wouldn’t turn off which was a nuisance and we did report it. They tried to fix it but couldn’t. The coffee machine didn’t work properly either as the pods wouldn’t pierce so it kept giving me cups of water. Fortunately there was a kettle too so I used that instead. The bathroom was spotless!

Good hotel for Excel
I chose this hotel for the location as I was going to an event at the O2 Arena. Unfortunately the surrounding area is a bit of a building site at the moment but the public transport links are great and there is very good signage around directing people to the hotel. The hotel itself was really good, lovely bathroom and all very clean. The bar was also very nice.

The staff were great and very helpful and the hotel as a whole was very nice but our actual room was a bit of a letdown. I booked an accessible room and the first issue was that the AC wasn’t working. It took a couple of calls but after an hour and a bit, someone came up and confirmed that it was blowing out at 21°C despite being on the coldest setting. Ultimately, the only solution was bringing a fan up to our room which helped with some of the heat but not all of it. The staff member who brought the fan up even commented that our room felt humid. The other issue was the bathroom; because it was an accessible room, it was a wet room-style (which made it so much easier with my mobility issues!). Unfortunately, the entire bathroom flooded from my 10-minute shower and none of the water drained. My husband also had to shower so we left it for half an hour, thinking it was just taking it’s time to drain but when he opened the door, it was still full of cold standing water. Luckily this was the morning we checked out because we weren’t able to get back into the bathroom because the water never significantly drained and we didn’t have suitable shoes. Upon checkout, my husband said that he alerted the front desk because I was mortified to leave the bathroom in that state but there was nothing we could do. Overall, the hotel is lovely and the location is fantastic! The breakfast buffet was amazing as well; I couldn’t believe all of the dairy-free options.

Good hotel. Our room was quite noisy with the ventilation going all night and was really hot in the room. Did sleep pretty well though. Over is a good place to stay. Breakfast is really good, plenty of selection. Is really handy for the skyliner to the o2 and close to the DLR.
