Top ExCel Hotel Reviews

a&o London Docklands Riverside

10/10 Excellent

"."

Radisson Blu Hotel, London Canary Wharf East

8/10 Good

"Fin udsigt til O2 og cablebanen. God service, fin morgenmad hvor der var hvad der skulle være. Dejligt med aircondition da vejret vidste sig fra en varm side. God beliggenhed med ca. 25 minutter til Tower of London. Blackwall station ligger lige i nærheden og der er busforbindelse i nærheden af hotellet. Uber-både ligger til i nærheden"

Aloft by Marriott London Excel

8/10 Good

"The hotel has a modern exterior, with a contemporary interior that feels up to date. It’s not in the part of London most tourists picture, but it is in a modern area that is convenient for anyone attending events at the ExCeL London conference centre. Excellent public transport links make it easy to reach central London attractions in a relatively short time. One thing worth noting is aircraft noise. Depending on the runway configuration at the nearby airport, departing planes can be heard from 7:00 a.m. On some mornings it was noticeable, while on others it was minimal depending on takeoff direction. The front desk staff were courteous and helpful throughout my stay. Housekeeping was inconsistent, likely due to time pressure. On two occasions, they accidentally left their master room-access card in my room. The complimentary canned water was also inconsistent some days two cans were provided, other days one or none, and once a can had a chewed piece of gum stuck to it. I reported this to the front desk, which simply offered a replacement water. Breakfast was good, with a standard hot and continental selection including eggs, pastries, cereals, and fruit. While fairly typical for this type of hotel, everything was, good, and regularly replenished. Overall, the hotel offers modern facilities, helpful staff, and convenient transport links into central London.However, housekeeping isn’t great and aircraft noise from around 7:00 a.m. may be noticeable on some mornings."

InterContinental London - The O2 by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic property with direct access to the O2. The rooms were large, modern, and spacious. The pool has child-friendly hours and was a refreshing treat during the hot weather. The multiple restaurants with stunning views of the Thames and Canary Wharf were wonderful. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend and stay here again."

Fraser Place Canary Wharf

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely apartment and decent size with somw rooms facing a nice marina. Great location close to tube and shops. Nice balconies too. Less good was the service- beds were not made, missing towels for the guests that were booked, air conditioning leaked lots of water etc.. Other than that I would stay again."
