Excellent
Very clean, modern, and comfortable. The king-sized bed had beautiful crisp white sheets and was very comfortable. I came her for the pool and sauna which my child loved. The room has tea and coffee. We got robes ans slippers on request plus a toorh brush kit. The snack bar and restaurant are very convenient. I recommend the hot chocolate from the snack area. Its a good price for London and close to the DLR. So its easy to get to anywhere central in London. There are some works going on at the Excel but that didnt bother us. The TV in the room is large. The air con and heating very efficient. They also have a bar area with table top games. The staff are friendly and professional. A fun thing to do in the half term break.

We exhibited at ExCeL and there were a lot of build works in the immediate area but no consequent noise. The hotel was extremely clean and well kept. The staff exceptionally friendly and the whole stay outstanding. One solitary issue was the very highly-priced Chardonnay (two large almost equalled our two main courses) so I'd suggest caution at the bar. Still totally worth it and will definitely stay again.

Great located hotel in London Excel
Excellent located hotel in excel. Great of you are attending excel conference or forums. Near DLR. offers parking too. Which is amazing in London. However, like before the room’s thermostat was off set and continued to throw cold air. This I experienced in my previous stay too. The thermostat is limited in its settings and cold air fan automatically switches on even when you try to increase room temperature
