The staff were very friendly, the food was very good and the room was spacious, and very comfortable. Overall I would highly recommend this hotel as a destination.
The staff was courteous, friendly and helpful. The housekeeping staff were especially nice and helpful as was the breakfast staff. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Will definitely stay here next time I’m in London.
Convenient location with good transport links. Welcoming environment.

Excellent check in. Lovely reception area. Clean spacious room. Extra pillows. Beautiful breakfast, good evening meals which were great value for money. Easy check out. Good location - minutes from DLR which makes it easily accessible to London itself.
Only one thing I will say is the rooms get HOT in the nights, even with temp turned right down and even off.
Would recommend.
Stayed as a family of 2 adults and 2 children under 11 for a weekend in London.
