Nice hotel for stop over before a flight or use of the Excel centre.
Ordered food from the bar/restaurant, lovely gentleman sever, the food sadly terrible.
Breakfast was average.
You get what you pay for. Cheap and cheerful,
The staff are excellent. But the food lets them down.

Beautiful hotel, friendly staff, quiet and comfortable. Good value for money. Many thanks.
Clean, quiet and great breakfast!! Super location for the o2 arena and not too expensive. Closest DLR station was closed however the walk to the next was only 15mins. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would recommend.
Lovely hotel and room was comfortable and spacious. Staff ver helpful and very friendly. Breakfast very good. Nice bar and great it was open until.1am to enable us to have a late nightcap Convenient for DLR travel. We enjoyed our stay very much!! Will come again!!
I arrived art this hotel and the service from the check i young Lady whose name means peace in English was the best service I have ever experienced. Her attitude for such a young woman made me humbled. She went out of her way to ensure that a booking that was late , was resolved , and convinced me that I will only use this hotel when I visit London in the future. Congratulations to the Hotel , you are a credit to the Holiday Inn.
