Average for London, but the price was good. Under the landing approach for London City Airport, but didn't really hear much once we were inside. Room clean, nice looking bed, but extremely hard, pillows awful, no support at all, so awoke with an extremely stiff neck. Not a great nights sleep, was extremely hot too, the aircon worked but didn't keep as cool as would have liked. None of these issues raised with staff tho as we were back very late, so I'm sure we could have had that seen to if we could. Bathroom compact and clean, tea & coffee facilities in room adequate, nice TV. Bar was open after our show at 11.30, was quite busy and reasonably priced.

Brilliant location for a visit to the O2, lots around the hotel and the staff were very friendly. It was a shame the air con wasn’t working in the room though, as it got pretty toasty in there.

Brilliant

I stayed for two nights as i was competing in the London marathon. Never stayed in London before but couldn't have picked a better hotel and location. The hotel is 2 minutes walk walk to the Excel centre where you have to go and collect your running pack to be able to compete. It's also a 5 minutes walk to the skyline which takes you over the Thames and one at the other side just a 40 minutes walk and your at the start line. The staff at the hotel couldn't have calmed my nerves any better, they were amazing and even giving free bunches of bananas to any runner staying there. A big massive shout out goes to Soliman the evening /night door man, so kind and welcoming, such a kind and fantastic person. I drove from Sheffield and the hotel couldn't have been easier to find with secure parking right underneath. There is a sister hotel connected to the Ibis and you can share their resturant whilst looking out over the Docklands. Would i stay there again, most definitely.

Fabulous!

Fab hotel for short term stay. Decent size room with a good sized shower. All amenities as expected, kettle, tea/coffee etc. Added bonus of a nespresso machine too. Perfect location for the O2. Definitely recommend the cable car to get across the river. Staff were all lovely as well. Will absolutely be booking again for our next concert experience.
