Nice hotel with a few flaws.

Perfectly good hotel conveniently located for the Excel. We did not sleep due to the heat in the room which we had no control over. We had not been informed that there was work or issues with the heating system. Was disappointed with my main course at dinner which was not served with the baby new potatoes as per the menu description. Instead, without asking me, it came with a rather bizarre potato cake which I was told had vegetables in it but did in fact contain olives. My husband tasted it & declared it not at all nice. I was not offered an alternative.

Not good.

When we got into our room, we discovered that the room had not been cleaned well at all from the previous people who had stayed in it. There were used mugs (with coffee and milk still in them) lying around, used slippers and towels still in the bathroom, as well as opened and used toiletries (I believe they were make up pads, didn't really want to touch and find out), and the iron was left out on the desk. The bed sheets weren't very big and didn't really cover the bed properly. As we were leaving we also realised there was also a brown stain on the wall behind the bed. Not good unfortunately, and surprising considering how nice the lobby and reception areas appeared downstairs, but the room did not live up to the expectations sadly.

This hotel was roomy for a London hotel. Very convenient for us to be a short walk to restaurants and the cable car to the O2 arena. Conveniently located near Excel and the Elizabeth Line railway, which took us to Heathrow Airport any many tourist attractions without having to change trains. Would definitely recommend this hotel. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Maid service daily
