We stayed here as it was the cheapest one we could find near the O2, and we weren't disappointed. The room was clean and the bed very comfy, needed after a long night! The breakfast was great, a help your self buffet, we opted for the full English. The DLR station is literally just across the road and the service... More

Bedrooms asmall but clean and adequate. Food disappointing and for our conference dinner only ust made it for remains of buffet starter as porrtion control extremely tight.... More

Stayed four nights, convenient for public transport and just across the road from the Excel. Room basic but very clean, good TV stations available. Very good breakfasts, self-service but good and plentiful. Very attentive staff. Excellent double glazing, didn't hear traffic or any noise from City Airport, although could see the planes. Was somewhat perturbed by uniformed security checking the... More

We got the rooms very cheap, and so for the price it was perfect. The room was clean and comfortable. It's a very good location right opposite the dlr and excel. Really handy for getting into the city. We stayed on the top floor so well away from noise, etc. My only other thought is that breakfast is on the... More

We found the hotel fairly basic but at around £60 a night for a London hotel it is good value. The room was clean, bathroom tiny but again clean. Did not have breakfast so cannot comment on the food. The staff were really nice and helpful. We arrived very early but were checked in with no fuss. Had a problem... More

We stayed one night at the Custom House Hotel. Very close to the DLR station but quite a long trip into central London. The room was clean but quite small. The bathroom only just big enough to stand in i.e. difficult to dry yourself once you step out of the shower, but clean. Good TV in the room including Sky.... More

This hotel is fairly basic and middle of the road but that is what you would expect form a conference hotel pretty much to accomodate people from the nearby Excel centre. Right next to a DLR station communication links are good. The room is basic but comfortable enough with all the basic ammenities such as TV, towels, king size bed,... More

This is possibly the worst London hotel I have stayed in. Good points: very close to the DLR. Beds just about OK although the bedding was cheap and I'll fitting. Bad points: small bedroom, tiny wardrobe area, very poor quality breakfast with stale croissants and reconstituted juice, small thin towels. Awful, awful: the bathroom was a prefabricated plastic enclosure fitted... More
