Great Hotel & Location for Excel

Check in was efficient and we were greeted by Redz who was very welcoming and made us feel very welcome and appreciated. Room was good, clean and spacious. If I had one issue I found the bed a little hard and uncomfortable and the two nights I didn’t sleep too good. We ate one night in the restaurant, we were served by Alex who again offered us excellent service. We did have a few issues with the food being cold and Alex did his best to rectify this. It was a great location to stay for Excel and although we have mentioned a few issues we would recommend the hotel and would choose to stay again.

I had a wonderful stay at the Aloft London Excel this weekend while working at RuPaul's DragCon. The hotel was perfectly located for the ExCel centre with plenty of transport options nearby. I dined in the hotel on Friday evening and had a lovely meal. The staff couldn't do enough for you. I was especially thankful to the member of staff who was on reception on Friday morning for allowing me to check-in early when I asked to leave my suitcase. This was hugely appreciated. I'll look forward to staying here again in the future.

We liked that the suite room has lots of space, and it's as if it has two rooms and it has 2 bathrooms. The extra space and available storage closets was great too. Loved that the shower was walk in, every other hotel we stayed at had a high tub to get in. Only thing to keep in mind is the hotel is far from everything, but the train station is like a 3 minute walk.

Clean , neat hotel The only downside is the staff at reception could have been more friendly. We had to ask for help to take our luggage. If we have not asked, the staff would not care as they were just looking at us. Customer service side was lacking. However the lads that helped us to get our luggage downstairs ( not front desk) were very helpful and friendly

Pool open late

This hotel was great! The indoor swimming pool stays open until 11 pm and they provide robes for the pool upon request. The pool area is nice and warm. The hotel and room was clean. I wish it was closer to Heathrow though. It is right at the District Line, so it is conveniently located for the tube.
