Highlights
Location: ExCel Exhibition Centre, just five minutes from London City Airport
Business Facilities: 12 fully-equipped meeting rooms flooded with natural light
Wellness: On-site gym, sauna, and steam room
Dining: Upper Deck restaurant with views of Victoria Dock
“The immediate proximity to ExCeL is a massive draw, and the Upper Deck restaurant certainly catches the eye. I think it's a smart choice for business, but I spotted notes that some rooms could use refreshing, and the dining area gets cramped at peak times. Still, the location seals it for event-goers.”

helpful staffnice locationblocked bathnasty room
The staff were attentive. marco, ludwing, and klea were particularly helpful. the hotel was situated in a nice location near the cable carts and on the elizabeth line. This is ideal for getting into central areas!!!
i got a nasty room on the 3rd floor with a blocked bath. the room overlooked the entrance of the hotel and pavement.

the gym featured updated equipment. i saw three treadmills plus two stationary bikes in good condition! the custom house elizabeth line stop was also very close. It made travel around THE area efficient. Finally, the breakfast included a varied selection of hot and cold items.
the in-room air conditioning was not particularly effective.
