Great stay. Great location. Great transport links via Jubilee Line. Parking. Our two-night stay exceeded expectations. Had gluten free options for breakfast. Very helpful staff. Good sized twin room for two people to share. Gave us a discount code when we checked out, to use for future bookings. We will definitely book again for our next London stay.

Excellent location as we were watching a show at the O2 arena. A piece of history in the middle of high rise buildings. It’s been lovingly restored and maintained with quirky design elements to it. They had great breakfast choices and had a relaxed atmosphere. I love these kinds of places. Just the relaxing weekend my husband needed.
