Feels like being on Sydney Harbour 😎

We have been coming to the Doubletree docklands for years now with our whole family- but In Recent years have been splurging out and booking the junior suites- as they are so worth it! The best thing hands down about this hotel is its location looking out over the river to Canary Wharf. By day you can hear the waves of the tidal Thames lapping at the shore, the sounds of the ferries going past and see the sun glinting off the buildings. I’m from Sydney and it’s the closest I’ve come to -being the other side of the world- to Sydney harbour and the ferries! On a sunny day I can almost imagine I’m back at home on the harbour! The urban beach here adds to that feel, but if you can afford to splurge - the junior suites have balconies that open to the front and look out over the river- it’s gorgeous. The food has by far improved in the restaurant since the last time we came , but in particular the service from the very friendly and hardworking staff is outstanding. Our room was clean and spacious and the beds and In Particular the pillows were really comfortable. The final cherry on the top is that there is a complimentary ferry from Canary Wharf to the hotel dock on the other side- which very soon will be upgraded to being electric! Overall my fave place to stay in London by far 😍

Poor aftercare

Nobody replies to my emails. We had a nice stay and the service at check in was excellent. If somebody replied to any of my emails this would have been a sure 5 star review. We left something important in the room and wanted to arrange to have the item posted at our expense but we are yet to receive a response 3 weeks and many chase emails later...

Good Room but Gluten-free Problems

Jonas was lovely on the front desk, room was great, comfortable and big. Breakfast was poor as my partner has Coeliac disease and although being assured by the front desk it wouldn't be a problem, we were met with befuddlement by the Breakfast staff. Even after being told what was gluten free, there was still problems with the food my partner was told was gluten free, a real shame as the rest of the stay was great.

We were convinced the bed had bed bugs or fleas as the minute we jumped into bed we both started itching like mad for the both nights we stayed. Very odd! This has never happened to us in any other hotel and this is a 25 night trip in the UK with many hotels.

This was a nightmare. They made us pay £100 extra for a “suite” because our room wasn’t clean and ready at the check-in time. We agreed because we had reservations and couldn’t wait another hour or longer for them to clean it. When we returned from our event at 10pm, we asked for them to bring sheets for the fold out sofa for our children to sleep. At 11:40pm, still no sheets and our children had fallen asleep without a bed. When we got into the King bed, there were brown smears and hair all over the sheets and pillow cases. I took photos. Around midnight, they brought 1 Queen flat sheet and pillow cases for the King bed. No top sheet, no blanket, and the bottom sheet was too small so part of our body was on plain mattress. For nearly £500 a night, I would expect at least 1 bed with clean sheets for a family of 5. This facility is so gross and the staff do not care.
