Fantastic location. The Elizabeth line is close by and offers access to key locations in London. The hotel and breakfast were lovely. Staff all friendly. Great price considering location too
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Very pleasant hotel, well situated for the O2. Easy to get to on the Elizabeth line. Very reasonably priced too, and a nice breakfast. We've stayed several times and it's a good base for local things and visiting central London. The riverboat is a fun way to get to central London.

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay here again, room was clean and breakfast was great. Staff are really lovely especially during busy event weekends! The only down side is the lift, one seemed to be broken and left me waiting with my large suitcase for 35 minutes to get down stairs as it was so busy.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

If you're working anywhere along the Elizabeth Line or DLR - it's right by Custom House Station - this is such a handy hotel, and usually much more competitively priced than in the centre. The rooms are comfy and there's a great reception / lounge area downstairs. Lovely front desk staff when I used it recently.

Ideal place to stay if visiting the O2 arena. Modern, clean hotel with a nice bar for late night drinks. Very friendly and helpful staff.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed here with my teenage daughter for 2 nights. Room was small but perfect for what we needed which was just a base to sleep. Shower cubicle large with hot water and powerful even though we were top floor. Staff great - a WhatsApp and they came up to sort out our TV as the batteries had died. Perfect location for O2 - 5 minute walk to the cable cars and Royal Victoria DLR.

Very convenient for the Excel Exhibition Centre in London. Breakfast was serviceable. Beds were very hard, which other colleagues appreciated, but I prefer a softer mattress. It’s a basic hotel which does what it promises, clean and dry with friendly staff.
