Really enjoyed our stay

Great location - close to the Abba Arena and the London Stadium and with convenient rail connections. All of the staff were lovely and friendly. Our bathroom had a nice large shower and it was one of the quietest hotel rooms we've ever had. The breakfast was tasty with a good selection of hot and cold.
