I would recommend this hotel, especially because the rooms are spacious compared to other hotels in the same price range. Check-in was smooth even with a late arrival, which was a relief. Pros: • Spacious rooms • Clean and well-maintained property • Convenient location with nice views • No issues with late check-in Cons: • Long wait times at the front desk due to only one staff member handling check-ins and other requests • No slippers provided in the rooms
Response from Property: Dear Oscar_Travel,Thank you so much for your kind feedback and for recommending Novotel London Canary Wharf! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your spacious room, the cleanliness of the property and our convenient location with beautiful views. We are sorry to hear that your experience at the front desk didn’t fully meet expectations. While we do have a full team available from 3 PM to ensure a quick and efficient check-in process, we regret that this wasn’t your experience and truly appreciate your patience. Regarding the slippers, you are absolutely right, they are not placed in the rooms by default, but they are available free of charge upon request from the reception team. Thank you once again for your lovely review. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back again soon!Sincerely,Katarina & the Novotel London Canary Wharf team

Response from Property: Dear Hugo,Thank you for choosing to stay with us at Novotel London Canary Wharf and for taking the time to share your feedback. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed the clean and comfortable room, the cozy bed and pillows and of course our magnificent views!While we understand that our location may feel slightly set back, we are actually very well connected. Canary Wharf Station (Jubilee line) is just a 5-minute walk away, the Elizabeth line is a 10-minute walk, and the nearest DLR station is also just 5 minutes from the hotel. Additionally, there’s a bus stop right outside our front door, making it easy to get around London. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back again soon for another relaxing stay with even more beautiful views.Warm regards,Katarina & the Novotel London Canary Wharf team

This 4 star hotel is quite disappointed to us . The room assigned to us was flooded with water when one is taking shower. The water flown from the bathroom to the carpet in the room. The hair dryer was not working too. Although the hotel did change the room and hair dryer for us but its caused a lots of inconvenience and wasted our time. Further we can heard dog barking in the hotel!

”I feel obligated to share my experience to prevent others from enduring the same disappointment. From the moment I stepped into the hotel, I was greeted by a pervasive and unpleasant odor that lingered throughout the premises, making it impossible to feel comfortable. However, what truly made my stay unbearable was the attitude of the staff. Instead of being welcoming or helpful, they exuded an air of arrogance, treating guests as though they were inconveniences rather than valued customers. The combination of a foul-smelling environment and unprofessional, condescending service makes it clear that this hotel does not deserve your time or money. There are far better options where guests are treated with respect and provided with a clean, pleasant experience.“
Response from Property: Dear KA HO,Thank you for choosing to stay with us and for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations, especially regarding the service. We take pride in delivering respectful and professional hospitality and regret that you felt this was not reflected during your visit.We would also like to clarify that the food shown in the photographs is not served at our hotel.If you consider staying with us again, we would welcome the opportunity to provide you with the excellent experience we aim to offer all our guests.Sincerely,Katarina & the Novotel London Canary Wharf team

We have a few places (Malta and Bath) to visit for this trip to UK, we select stayed in Novotel London Canary Wharf as our place when we are in London due to its convenient location. We keep stay in & out during the transition. We requested two twin-bed rooms and hotel tried to accommodate us and although not able to address due to our late check in and hotel is fully booked for some days. Hotel still tried to address our needs and upgraded us to a suite on top floor which surprised us finally.
Response from Property: Dear Guest,Thank you so much for sharing your lovely feedback and for choosing Novotel London Canary Wharf as your home base during your exciting trip around the UK! We truly appreciate your flexibility with the room arrangement and while we weren’t able to fully meet your request due to the late check-in and high occupancy, we are so glad that the upgrade to a top-floor suite added a special touch to your stay! Surprising and delighting our guests is exactly what we aim for. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back again soon for another memorable experience!Warm regards,Katarina & the Novotel London Canary Wharf team

Only stayed for 1 night but had a really good experience. First impressions were amazing as we were greeted by Francesca who was very friendly and made us feel welcome. She said she would upgrade us to a better room for no added price (we didn’t ask). Everything was very clear and easy to navigate. The room was better than I even imagined with a great view of the London eye and London Bridge. Would definitely return.
Response from Property: Dear Valued Guest,Thank you for your lovely feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that Francesca made such a great first impression and that you enjoyed the complimentary upgrade. It’s wonderful that your room exceeded expectations, and the view sounds spectacular! We look forward to welcoming you back for another fantastic stay.Warmest regards,Hristina and The Novotel London Canary Wharf Family

Upon checking in, we noticed a maintenance issue with the bathroom glass, which is supposed to blur when activated by a button. However, due to what seemed like an electrical fault, the glass remained fully transparent. Maintenance turned off the power to force the glass to blur, but it never functioned properly afterward. We were informed that the repair could not be completed the same day and would be scheduled for the following day, with a note left at reception to address it. The next day, we informed reception about the issue, but unfortunately, it was never fixed. We went out in the morning and came back to find the glass wasn’t fixed. We asked reception again later in the day, but the issue remained unresolved. While it wasn’t a major inconvenience for us, since the feature was part of the room, we believe it should have been addressed promptly—especially given that the glass offers a stunning view of London.
Response from Property: Dear Guest,Thank you for choosing to stay with us at Novotel London Canary Wharf and for taking the time to share your experience. We are sorry to hear that the issue with the bathroom glass wasn’t resolved during your stay and that we didn’t meet your expectations in this regard. While it is reassuring to know it wasn’t a major inconvenience, we understand how important these details are. Please accept our sincerest apologies for the delay in addressing the maintenance issue. We strive to ensure every aspect of our guest experience runs smoothly, and in this case, we fell short. On a positive note, we are glad to hear you still enjoyed elements of your stay, and we hope the overall experience was a memorable one. We hope to welcome you back soon and have the opportunity to provide a seamless and fully satisfying stay.Warm regards,Katarina & the Novotel London Canary Wharf team

I'd not personally booked an accessible hotel room before but with this I didn't feel judged or anything for my invisible disabilities when checking in. It was amazing being able to sit on a chair with the rain shower right above my head. The shower was a large walk in one. The room was a short walk from the lifts, a lot of others I have to walk a bit of a distance to my room so this was another plus. Clean, comfy room with all that was needed for our short stay including a mini fridge with water waiting for us when we arrived.. My friend and I really enjoyed the pool and saunarium where we used a jet stream to make the swim more of a challenge. It's something I'd love to use a lot since my arthritis makes working out difficult. The saunarium wasn't as dry as saunas I've been to so I could stay in longer, I could've even fallen asleep in there 😆 All staff we encountered were very friendly. Great location close to nice restaurants and the o2.
