I specifically asked for a twin room and was promised that this would be fulfilled as I was with my carer. I was offered a disabled room but wanted two beds. when we arrived the beds were pushed together and there was only one sheet and quilt so when we manually separated them there was only one sheet and quilt between two. I'm not happy about this as I specifically requested the beds be separated on arrival Other than that comfy bed, large room and good breakfast.

Lovely hotel close to Excel London where I had a conference, just 10mins walk. The lady at the reception changed my room when I asked to be moved from the initial room that had a connecting door. The room had all the required amenities, a comfortable bed and a great view. Breakfast was satisfactory, a few fruits were available as well. The downside of the whole experience was that the bathroom drain was blocked, and I reported this when I checked out the following morning.

Lovely hotel! Our visit coincided with the hottest day of the year & the air conditioning in the room was amazing & very well received!! Everywhere was super clean & all staff were extremely helpful. We were attending an event at the O2 arena & this hotel is perfect for this - easy journey home afterwards with the DLR station literally a 2 minute walk away. Will definitely use again for future events.
