Good stay and good value. Asked to move room right away as it smelt of stale / recent smoke and it was done no quibble. Good to have a free coffee included anyway even before this. Pool had kids in it before the time on the hotel info so not easy to swim long but steam and sauna were good condition and worked well. Overall good stay!

The staff were most helpful in meeting all my needs and providing all necessary information for me to get through the hotel; retained my luggage temporarily when asked for; provided a comfortable bedroom with excellent facilities; and even helped me get back into my room when I inadvertently locked myself out. The transport links from here are convenient, but it is testament to the hard work of the staff that they made my stay as stress-free as possible. Would certainly recommend for anyone going to ExCeL London or nearby.

Comfortable stay

Stayed in a comfortable room with two double beds for two nights. Very comfortable beds. Quiet rooms from an external point of view despite being in the flight path for the City airport. Quite a bit of noise from the corridor though. Breakfast a good selection although they weren't very good at restocking empty items or clearing dirty plates so the table got quite cluttered. The pool are was ok although not many places to sit.

Overall a very pleasant stay, thank you :)

The hotel was very good, very clean and professional staff. We arrived as a large family and they provided us with a cot, extra blankets and extra water in our room complimentary. The morning breakfast buffet was also very good, the options were very nice. Only critic I would say is that the coffee machine broke down during breakfast and it wasn't to my liking to be honest, coffee was bitter. But overall it was an excellent stay, couldn't fault it. Also we were bit disappointed that we couldn't access the pool as the timings for children cuts off at 7:30pm so please consider extending this.
