Amazing choice for those going to the O2

I would very rarely rate hotels 10 out of 10 but this was so close that I couldn't not give it full marks. The room was brilliant and the mattress and pillows in particular were the best I've had in ages. Breakfast was also good and the pub was an amazing bonus to have underneath. By the time I went to bed the pub was really quiet so I had no noise issues.

Highly recommended for a visit to the O2 - 5 minute walk to venue and free parking. Lovely room, and a unique reminder of the historic Greenwich in the middle of a sea of new-build development

Nice stay 100% satisfaction

Really lovely stay, shame it was only the one night. Lovely room, friendly staff and the pub had a really nice vibe. Parking outside the property was a real positive. The area around the property is really good to explore and we would like to return fo4 another trip.

Easily one of the best hotels I've stayed in when staying away for something. Staff were friendly and polite, parking was so easy and included in the price which saved us paying for the O2 car park. Breakfast was sooooo good. For all future shows we'll be trying to book in here!

Do not stay here if you want a good nights sleep. I was kept awake by a lot of banging and scraping of furniture across the floor in the bar until gone midnight. In the morning at 6.30am I was woken by a lot of banging and clanging from a delivery to the pub. Breakfast was minimal - a few pastries and two choices of cereal. No fruit or yoghurt. The choice of cooked breakfast was ok. The room was not cheap at £218 and that was after an Expedia discount!

I’m not a massive review writer, but thought I’d go out of my way to leave one for this place - our stay was perfect! Staff were all friendly, breakfast was tasty and came quickly, bed was really comfortable, plenty of space in the car park, modern and clean bathroom, very convenient location. Honestly couldn’t have asked for a better stay - we will definitely be coming back here in future! We went to a concert at the O2 and it’s such a convenient location (5-10 minute walk away). The actual hotel is very quiet despite all the people leaving the venue. Once we got in and went to bed we didn’t hear a peep from outside! Check in and check out process was also super quick and easy. Couldn’t fault the place at all. The only teeny tiny thing we noticed was dust in the cupboards but the room was clean and the bathroom was clean so we can’t complain. Overall, a very good stay and we will definitely be back!
