Really nice hotel, modern and fresh. Busy reception even at 10 pm but three staff on, so dealt with quickly. Had to then wait 15 minutes while beds were changed from double to two singles but staff member kept me updated. Excellent clean room with comfy bed. Great choice at breakfast and staff constantly replenishing items. Finally, hotel in an excellent location for exploring the Docklands and 02 area, with a DLR station just yards away.

The hotel is clean, and that’s honestly the only compliment I can give it. Other than that, it is extremely basic. The location is convenient only if your destination is the ExCeL Exhibition Centre, but it is not close to restaurants, attractions, or any interesting areas. The rooms are very small and minimal, and the hotel offers virtually no facilities or amenities. If you’re simply looking for a clean place to sleep near ExCeL, it may be suitable, but don’t expect anything beyond that.

We visited for the Comic Con weekend and we were all extremely happy with every aspect of our stay. The reception staff were very welcoming, the room was perfect for what we needed and was very clean. Whenever we came back at the end of the day the housekeeping team did a great job at making the room comfortable for our return. The bar and restaurant staff are very friendly and helpful, nice variety of food for breakfast and dinners. Thanks very much for a really enjoyable weekend!

I didn't have breakfast during my stay. The room was clean bud the bathroom looked clean but there was a damp smell like the cloths used to wipe were dirt. It didn't smell freshly cleaned evan after the cleaner cleaned the bathroom. The food served at the restaurant was fairly good and price was reasonable. very friendly bar staff and front desk staff were just ok nothing wow about the service provided in that area. There is no gym, no laundry, no room service. The rooms were sparsely furnished. No chest of drawers, the bedside tables were tiny and had no shelves or drawers, the closet was virtually non-existent. I basically used one side of my bed to lay out my clothes for the week. No enclosed closet to store clothes and shoes. No small fridge nor safe to lock up valuables. I have stayed at this brand of hotels in Canada and the US and this is not what I am used to.

Staff is fantastic to work with, and good flexibility for choosing how often your room is fully cleaned during your stay (can be less for conservation purposes or when not needed, or every day if you want without special request). I do think one improvement needed is safes in the guest rooms.

Excellent check in. Lovely reception area. Clean spacious room. Extra pillows. Beautiful breakfast, good evening meals which were great value for money. Easy check out. Good location - minutes from DLR which makes it easily accessible to London itself.
Only one thing I will say is the rooms get HOT in the nights, even with temp turned right down and even off.
Would recommend.

Excellent service and helpful staff at check in and were brilliant with our kids, however the rest of our stay was average service, can’t really comment as it was nothing special or above and beyond.

Room was a good temperature and bed was very clean and made well.

Sofa bed however was very very uncomfortable and not a standard double so our son fell out twice during the night.

Bathroom was a little disappointing, mould and dirt around the shower basin and the bathroom smelt unpleasant. Also no bin bags any of the bins.

Overall room was satisfactory and stay on arrival were great but the rest of the stay and breakfast was just average and we could have spent the same amount of money somewhere a little more luxurious with more competent staff.

The staff where absolutely amazing but the hotel and room where a little tired and well used we arrived at about lunch time when we went for lunch we where told that there is only a limited menu avaliable and because we had our 11 year old daughter with us there was nothing on the limited menu for her so we ordered 3 toasted sandwiches and it came to £35 now i know things have gone up in price but thats well to expensive and we where told thay where frozen so i will not be back there trust me

Perfect for a short overnight and departure out of LCY. It’s walkable to the airport but only a BP4 uber fare. Left too early for breakfast but hotel provided a minimal “to go” bag w/ two small muffins, a banana and an apple. Could have used a yogurt and an orange juice or small bottle of water. Clean, modern, and easy access to Docklands light rail.

I didn't ask for a disabled room and i slip twice because the wet floor in the wet room.
Didn't appreciated the airplanes noise and the pillows could have been better. Small double bed and a winter quilt in the summer not needed. The matress was comfortable.
The tram near by was very good.

We liked everything about this Holiday Inn, there is nothing that we didn't like. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and we particularly liked the fact that you can book an Uber in the hotel lobby area and it was there in less than 15 minutes. Our room was spotlessly clean and the beds very comfortable. We were attending the All Points East festival at Victoria Park and the hotel is quite a few miles away from the park but the Ubers are fantastic, so it wasn't a big deal to get across London.

Decent property to stay in that is not far from public transport. No in room dining services and my phone charger mysteriously disappeared after my room was serviced.

The hotel is clean with friendly and warm staff. It's conveniently located near public transportation, and quiet due to its distance from major tourist activities. They could offer a more varied breakfast menu.

Easy to find and get to and had parking. Hotel was lovely and clean and staff were very helpful and polite and friendly. Room was lovely and clean and spacious and had air conditioning, was a little disappointed couldn't open a window but still room was lovely. Little disappointed that it was 2single mattresses put together as made it very uncomfortable to sleep but managed to get some sleep. Had a bar and restaurant which wasn't too busy and was a lovely atmosphere. But disapointed there was no jam at breakfast could only find marmite but wasn't the end of the world. Would definitely stay again

We had a wonderful stay at the hotel. Although we had a very late check-in due to late arrival near midnight, food was still available. Overall, the facilities and cleanliness met our expectations.

Hotel is pretty standard Holiday Inn. Has a small car park at £20 per night. Restaurant has a varied menu of simple food. Service was slow and as a group of 10 our meals were delivered over the course of an hour.

I had a terrible experience in this hotel. My husband and I were falsely accused of smoking in the room( we have never smoked in our lives) and had 150 pounds removed from our card. It was a horrible experience but with the help of Alfred, Kingsley and Aliya, we were able to get our money back. I will never book the hotel again

Nice clean hotel stayed for 1 night.
Beds weren’t the most comfy and took a while for the air con to kick in so toasty for a while.
Was a good stay for the price, but a few frustrations like the hairdryer didn’t work and the worst coffee ever at breakfast but I still wouldn’t be put off.
I would work with google to pick up the local tube station as google maps made us get off 2 stops too early and after a long day in London, the extra 15 minutes was a bit much

Slow check-in

Checkin took way too long, no automated process, despite 3 people being at the checkin desk they had to spend more time doing admin tasks than dealing with customers then their printer failed, so a que of 3 people took over 30 mins to wait. Not good when you are in a hurry.

Perfect and convenient location for City Airport. Rooms immaculate and well equipped. On site parking was full, however large, alternative parking available across the street. All staff very friendly and in particular the ladies serving in the bar/restaurant. Great choice of good quality food and drink in the restaurant. Buffet breakfast was more than adequate. Would definitely recommend!
