Great location, great value

Great location and room was lovely. There were a few wear and tear marks on the carpet, but it was clean. We had a twin room and the beds were comfy, there were clean towels and tea/coffee facilities. The bathroom, although small, was clean and practical, the only thing was as the shower screen doesn't go right down to the floor, so the bathroom floor got quite wet when we used the shower. I would definitely recommend this as somewhere to stay if visiting central London.

Convenient and reasonably priced

A great hotel if visiting the Excel Centre. Easy to get to on the Elizabeth line. We stayed for 1 night when we attended the London International Horse Show. They dont offer room service but you can order food at the bar and take it up to your room which we did and found it reasonably priced. Easy to check in and out. This is the 2nd time we have stayed there and no doubt we will be back again next year for the Horse Show

Traveled with family
Liked: Room comfort
The room was ok as we used it for a base to visit the London International Horseshow. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was ok, but the sink has an awful drain smell when you used the tap. The television didn't work as didn't have a signal. We wasn't really bothered by this as we just wanted to listen to music so we used our phones instead. The breakfast was very nice but the service slow when they ran out of items. They didn't have any skinny milk, as I can't have full fat, so just had black coffee. Very convenient for the Excel centre and close to custom house/Elizabeth line.
