Reviews and Ratings
I found the hotel to be in a quiet area, very close to the Emirates cable cars which was convenient for exploring the city. The staff tried their best, but it was clear they lacked proper customer service training. The dining options were decent, especially for Vegetarians, but additional charges for cooked dishes were a bit disappointing.
I had the pleasure of staying at this hotel and can say it was a wonderful experience. The location is perfect, right next to the Excel Centre and very close to the DLR station. The service was top-notch, with a staff member going above and beyond to assist me. The dining experience was good, although some items were not included and came at an extra cost. The facilities were well-maintained, offering everything I needed for a comfortable stay.
The hotel offers incredible value for money at just £49 with stunning views over the Thames. The rooms are equipped with all necessary facilities. The service is excellent overall, with great attention from the staff. You might find some areas where the staff could use more training, but it doesn't detract too much from the experience. The location is superb, especially for those visiting the ExCel centre or taking a trip on the docklands light railway. The dining options are good, with a variety of choices, though some items may come at an additional cost. Overall, a satisfying stay with some minor room for improvement.
The hotel is situated in a quiet area, just a stone's throw away from Royal Victoria DLR station. The rooms offer a nice view out the window and boast very good facilities. The customer service, although with an extra member on reception desk during departure, could benefit from more training. The hotel provides a good value for money proposition, but some additional services like dry cleaning or welcome drinks might need improvement.
The hotel offers a great view even with the window left open and features 2 single beds and a bathroom. The service was mixed with an extra member present at departure but overall need to improve customer service. The location is in a quiet area not far from cable cars and a few minutes from Royal Victoria DLR station. The dining experience provided a view of the river but was better suited for early risers and vegetarians. The facilities were decent but need some enhancements.
I had a nice stay at the hotel, enjoying a well-cooked breakfast in the heart of the docklands with a view of the Thames. The room with 2 single beds was cozy, but I wished for a hairdryer and kettle. Customer service was decent, but there is room for improvement. The location was convenient, close to London transport and the city center. The dining options had very good food, but dining was not included in the price. Overall, a comfortable stay with some room for enhancement in service and amenities.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel located right in the heart of Docklands. The rooms were clean and well-equipped, the breakfast was delicious, and the disabled access made my stay hassle-free. However, the service could be improved in terms of customer training. The location was convenient, with easy access to transportation links and various attractions.
