Novotel London ExCeL Reviews

The staff were helpful with regard to local directions, and polite.

Perfect place, perfect surroundings and also great sea view

Das Hotel ist hell und modern, mit angenehmer Atmosphäre, ruhig gelegen, etwas außerhalb des Stadtzentrums, abseits der unmittelbaren Hektik und des Großstadtlärms. Es ist optimal zu erreichen in Kombination von U-Bahn und DLR und liegt in Fußnähe der Station (ca. 5 Minuten). Es war schon mein zweiter Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel und ich kann es echt weiterempfehlen auch was den Service und das Frühstücksangebot angeht.

Wir waren für einen 6 tägigen Städtetrip in diesem Hotel. Leider liegt es doch sehr außerhalb. In der Nähe gibt es zwar zwei U-Bahn-Stationen, jedoch dauert es fast 30 min. bis ins Zentrum. Von außen und die Lobby machen einen sehr guten Eindruck, modern und sauber. Das Zimmer dagegen war jedoch etwas klein und das Bett unbequem. Die Dusche konnte überhaupt nicht benutzt werden, da es aus dem Abfluss sehr gestunken hat. Gut dass es noch eine Badewanne gab.

Ottimo albergo con tutti i confort, wifi gratuito. Un po' decentrato ma ben collegato al centro della citta' con il treno DLR (stazione vicinissima). Tranquillo, nonostante la vicinanza di un aeroporto. Unica pecca la colazione nn inclusa e molto cara in albergo (circa 16 sterline). Pero' le camere sono corredate di bollitore e quindi si puo' fare il the' ed il caffe' lungo. Comunque sotto l'albergo ci sono due bar dove fare colazione ed alcuni ristoranti. Lo consiglierei senz'altro.

Ook al ligt het hotel bij de Docks in oost Londen , we waren met de DLRrailway toch redelijk snel in centrum. Per slot is het een miljoenenstad! Wel vlakbij London city AirPort. Via DLRRAILWAY te bereiken, in plm. Half uur. Het ontbijt was fantastisch. Alles super vers, de croissants zelfs beter dan in menig hotel in Frankrijk! Zelf brood afsnijden, knus! Kamer ruim ( kingsize bed), goed bed. Absoluut geen geluidsoverlast van andere kamers.

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. It is easy to get to from Heathrow International Airport. The DLR is great to travel with.

I booked this trip in a hurry because my mother was in the hospital. Most central London hotels were about $500 more. Although I knew I would have to buy a Travelcard for 2 zones, it was still going to be a lot cheaper to stay at the Docks. The new DLR, which is a sort of an extension to the Underground system has an station about 3 minutes away at Royal Victoria. However, because of extensive engineering work on the Underground railway system, many stations that I needed were closed. This made for detours and longer journeys on the Tube, and in many occasions, cab fares, which of course are extremely pricey in London. SO in the end, I don't think I saved much by choosing this hotel. The hotel itself is a newer structure, as just about everything else at the Docks, but the room was small, the heating did not work (They provided an electric heater), the water temperature in the shower was lukewarm, and the hallways smelled like ash trays. I was supposed to have a room with a double bed and a sofa bed, but instead ended up with a room with just a double bed. I did not eat at the hotel, but looked at the menu and the prices were about 30% more than what you would pay at a restaurant. They offered 24 hour room service. The staff was magnificent. They helped me with finding local restaurants and shops, offered to get me a cab when I needed one, and helped with getting theater tickets.

This hotel was amazing!! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Our room was nice. We had a single queen bed and a sofa bed. The staff pulled the sofa bed out before we checked in and made the bed. The room was clean. The hotel is not very close to all of the sites in London, but it is only 2 blocks from a metro station. Navigating the metro/tube system in London is very easy. The hotel restaurant and bar were awesome. The restaurant was quite fancy!! I recommend a glass of the Chapel Down White wine. The food was wonderful. We had dinner in the restaurant twice and twice we had dinner at the bar. The bar's menu was slightly different from the restaurant. The children loved the hotel. They had a great time. Overall, a fantastic hotel right next to a tube/metro station in London!

Great hotel at the edge of London. easy travelling to the center of London from the nearby DLR stations, clean rooms, good staff and good amenities.
