Best place to stay if you’re going to the o2, literally walk down a straight path and it’s less than a 5 minute walk. Lots of parking on site friendly staff and a really good full English breakfast, one of the best I’ve had

Fantastic stay. Loved the hotel and the pub downstairs. Only thing that let it down was the attentiveness of the staff. It felt like they were put out when doing their job. There were several occasions we had to find someone to serve us despite being in full view of the chatting staff. This is something that can definitely be improved and all in all we had a great stay.

Stayed in the cabin bed. However cleaning and banging till around 2am. Then again around 6am. Not ideal as the room is also subject to the exit door/night door and banging etc when people coming in with no sense of respect for others trying to get a rest. However it looks great and the pub/restaurant is great.
