Great staff, great hotel - brilliant service.

Small mix up with our room and the staff were incredible, we were offered a choice of rooms and complimentary tokens for the inconvenience. The hotel its self is in an incredible location with a complimentary ferry service over to Canary Warf. Staff, Hotel and everything was incredible. From the moment we parked until the moment we left truly fantastic :)

I stayed at the hotel for 1 night, since I would not be able to make a train back home after a concert. The person on check in was polite enough. However, I was unpleasantly surprised to be asked for a £50 deposit. I had no forewarning of this. The staff mentioned something about it being held in case of damage. I have stayed at higher end places and have NEVER been asked for this, so I was taken aback. I didn't have time to argue though since I needed to travel to my concert. I didn't have time for breakfast so I cannot comment on the dining facilities or bar. The inclusive boat ferry pass is useful, but it could use some later hours for the weekend, since after midnight if you miss the last ferry you may be faced with having to navigate a fair walk from Canada Water. The shower was lovely. The bed was incredibly comfy. The fast wireless phone charger was great. However, the room seemed oddly arranged. The fast charger was fixed to the desk far from the bed. There was not a night stand, meaning I had to walk to the other side of the room when I woke up to turn my alarm off. Not an easy feat for someone who wears glasses. I am not sure if the inconveniences are enough to tell people to stay away. But I would hesitate to stay there again.

The staff here were far and away the most friendly, helpful, and genuinely looking to serve group I’ve ever experienced. I would always stay at this property when in London if only for the service! As for the property, with a family of 5, it was a little cozy. But is to be expected. The room shows a little age, but the room was clean, neat, and the beds were great. Getting to and from with luggage and kids required hiring a car, but the free ferry across the Thames to the Canary Wharf area was easy and awesome. Will absolutely stay here again!

I was staying with a friend after a concert at the O2. The room was clean and tidy and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The only downside was that we were put in a disabled room, which did not bother us but was at the back of the hotel right next to where all the deliveries came and went which made it quite noisy during early hours .

The hotel is convenient to mass transit, and the breakfast buffet is outstanding. However, we had a room that was quite a distance from the main building where the only ice machine and restaurant were located. Access to the street is almost impossible for those with mobility issues. There’s a very steep driveway with no sidewalk, only stairs. The ferry to Canary Wharf is excellent, though it’s quite a hike to the Canary Wharf Station. My husband has knee issues, so we’ll stay elsewhere next time we visit London.
