Hotels near London City Airport

Pros: Wifi was good. Breakfast was pretty good - fair amount of selection (just don't take the bacon, as it's undercooked). It is located very closely to the underground (across the road).

Cons: Hard mattresses; would have liked it was softer, as it wasn't too comfortable. It was noisy from other rooms and cleaning staff in the hotel (their cleaning stuff was in the room next to mine). I wish there was a safety box in the room itself, not having to go downstairs to store your things safely.

Pros: we just have one day and a night in London. Arrived early at the hotel, the staff stored our luggage until we returned quite late in the evening to check in. Very convenient to be able to check in at any time. Right across the road from the tube station, very good location. Good and varied breakfast.

Cons: although the bar was open, no food available in the evening except pizza. The staff were not able to give us information on places to eat in the area.

Customer service was ridiculous, when we got there we were told by the manager that our Queen room was unavailable due to maintenance (how convenient) but instead of upgrading us for this inconvenience caused by themselves the manager wanted to downgrade us to two singles which I of course declined. We had to suggest an upgrade before his light bulb finally went on and agreed to upgrade us....very poor that as a manager you waited for a customer to suggest this. Hilton have really got to train their staff in customer service better. The standard is appalling now.

Pros: The general feel ... all of it was great

Pros: It was worth for value for a family with breakfast.

Cons: The check in took extra 45 minutes due to room was not ready. The staff at front desk was not feeling sorry, they behaved as if it’s normal and I must expect this service delay. Secondly, I saw my credit card statement today and shocked seeing one additional charge GBP112 in my credit card from Novotel London excel. My payment were done upon check in itself and I have checked out with notifications on 29Aug. This charge is unacceptable. This is the second time I have issue for my reservations with booking.com as my previous stay with Hyatt place Dubai also was restless.

Pros: Standard comfy and clean room with good service

Cons: A bit difficult to find.

Pros: We just got married and went straight to hotel, when booking I said it’s our honeymoon. They upgraded our room for free and put rose petals and a towel design in the shape of a love heart. Which was totally unexpected was just expecting a rose or something but they went all out and made our wedding night so special. Everything was amazing.

Pros: The uniqueness of the hotel

Pros: Location

Cons: The room was 29 degrees the air conditioning was blowing heat,and the receptionist couldn't be bothered For the price of a room,it was a shame

Cons: It was too hot in the room and the air con wouldn’t work

Pros: Lovely clean room. No noise. Great location. Bed was really comfortable and shower large and clean.

Cons: Breakfast was good but ran out of bacon and had to wait for cutlery.

Pros: It seems like a business hotel style but Holiday Inn Express Excel is more than that. Staffs are kind and friendly.

Pros: Staff, excellent.

Cons: Just be mindful they don't have a lift but are happy to assist with luggage. We were on 2nd floor.

Pros: It’s location to the ExCel

Cons: The room was classed as a suite which it certainly wasn’t. On one day our tea, coffee and milk was replaced and clean towels were put in bathroom but the bed was left unmade and used coffee cups which were brought up to the room along with wine glasses were just left. Consider the cost for the three nights which was outrageous it was appalling.

Pros: Very friendly and helpful staff, nothing was too much for them.

Cons: The Food and drink was a bit pricey, but having said that the food was excellent, and plenty of it.

Pros: Clean and comfortable.

Cons: There was a very unusual smell in the bathroom that I had to report to reception on checking out. You are right next to London City Airport, so planes are very very close. The noise is outstanding. Windows in room are not triple glazed.

Cons: Too Small showers, air codirionee is not working well ,

Pros: Room was very clean

Cons: Was very hot in the room.

Pros: Fantastic crew.

Pros: Cheap, convenient

Cons: Basic facilities, room smelled of smoke

Pros: There was nothing we liked about the hotel

Cons: This was by far the worst hotel we’ve stayed at!!! The service we received was terrible! Every time we asked about an enquiry, the staff were either rude or money always had to be involved. We asked if we could have cutleries brought up to our room, and they had such an attitude about it and told us that they couldn’t provide it for us because of “health and safety reasons”. Even that didn’t make any sense because people have the option to have their breakfast and eat UPSTAIRS WITH THEIR KNIFE AND FORK. What also made things worse was that there was no fridge, and the heater was broken. If you are trying to stay at a hotel for more than a day, I would highly suggest looking for a hotel that has the important things you need. Like having a window that opens would be great!!!! Like we felt trapped. It genuinely felt like there was no air coming in. We even asked if we could change rooms because of how cold things were in there, but no one listened. It wasn’t until the last day that they decided to do something about the heater. My boyfriend and I have stayed in many numerous hotels before, and have never experienced this kind of a service before. If it was me, I would honestly recommend staying somewhere else! No joke, I want all my money back.... because that hotel is the worst!

Pros: The room was great, the general service and room service too! Very clean, and warm and welcoming staff. Very close to East London main metro stations, which was perfect for me on that weekend. I also liked the view over the river when you go outside of the hotel. For those arriving or flying from London City airport, this hotel is perfectly located!

Cons: The price of course, because we always want to pay less in the end. But I didn't regret my choice anyway after spending those two nights at DoubleTree because they treat their customers very well.

Pros: Spacious rooms. Really good restaurant with good breakfast. The staff was curteous and professional. Always willing to help. Great value.

Cons: Location was challenging! It’s a bit of a walk to the DLR. And a good ways from central London

Pros: Good area nice and clean

Cons: Charged me £100 for restaurants and breakfast that I didn’t use

Pros: This hotel is about to complete renovations and it looks great. First the rooms are very nicely decorated, they have a great size and are very comfortable. For a hotel so close to the Airport you cannot hear a thing. Several airplanes landed and took off over night and I did not hear a thing from the outside. The rest of the hotel is incredible. The hotel restaurant serves great food, very high class, the quality is great. I would highly recommend eating at the hotel. I have only had bad experiences at Ramada's but if they all remodel to be like this one I would stay here always.

Pros: Location, view and comfort

Cons: The restaurant and dinner menu

Pros: Highly recommend. Easy to park and after a small walk to the excel to catch the tube very easy to get in to London.

Pros: Staff need to be better trained in language skills. As was very difficult understanding what she wanted to say but was helpful so not really her fault but I guess lack of training.

Cons: Rooms being too cramped and small. Had to change to a different 1 which was little bigger.

Pros: Helpful and friendly staff and very nice breakfast

Cons: Nothing, everything was perfect

Pros: The restaurant staff were very nice

Cons: Due to confusion of how many guests (paper work clearly said 2 & 1 4 year old) we was then placed in to a room with only a double bed made up. Had to go and request someone make the sofa bed up.

Pros: The breakfast is delicious and good room after a long day

Cons: No free mineral water

Pros: The rooms were lovely we loved our room just a bit gutted about the view wish we had a room with a better view but it was not a big deal

Cons: The staff were lovely and very helpful and the place was well lookd after and very clean.

Pros: Rooms are simple but comfortable. Buffet breakfast. Staff pleasant.

Cons: It's right beside London City airport so good if you're using that. Otherwise I found it a. It in the middle of nowhere so not a great location if you're a tourist. Having said that it's also right beside the DLR you can use that to get you where you want.

Pros: Very good value and convenient. Good service, free breakfast, good location for ExCel events and airport. A bit inconvenient for visiting central London but otherwise no complaints!

Pros: Good location

Cons: Extremely Spartan

Pros: The breakfest was a surprise. So good and fresh. Better than in many higher class hotels

Cons: It was not possible to book 2 rooms in one go on internet. Hence I booked two two times one room on my name which caused quite some confusion at the beginning. Also annoiyng was that the hotel was overbooked when we arrived. It ended up that I got a disabled room.

Pros: I didn't really like anything except that the airport was close by.

Cons: I couldn't beive there was only 30 minutes of free wifi. AND no TELEPHONE. The TV looked like a computer. Don't let me continue.

Pros: Our second year here for the weekend of the Ride 100 London Surrey, parking is reasonable however very tight, we paid £7.50 for 24hrs so checked in quite late, seems a busy hotel particularly due to the cycle event and Excel being on the doorstep, any event there makes this the ideal place to stay as it's a walk to Excel. right next to city airport and close to DLR, noise over night was not an issue in our room, although the train runs till midnight we could hear it didn't bother us, stayed in room 227.

Cons: The Car Park is inadequate however there is parking at Excel which is just a 5 min walk.
