    Very outdated place. The room was dirty, with hair from previous guests and holes in the bed linen. The bathroom was also in poor condition and not properly cleaned.

    Great location, blackout curtains

    Britannia is what it is. Low cost.

    Wi-Fi was unusable. Worse than on the train WiFi. I clocked 0.1mbps on a Speedtest. Frequently needed authenticating and essentially unusable. Pizza from restaurant on a par with my local kebab shop. Shower required mm precision between scalding and cold. Brass wash polished off generations ago.

    It’s a Britannia so you know you’re getting low cost (comparably) and very tired hotels. If you know Britannia, it doesn’t disappoint. Bed was ok. Room clean. View was great from 13 (if you can find your way up to that floor)

    Rooms were a bit run down, but comfortable for a night.

    Location was good for central London and where we were going for the night. Hotel is tired and in need of a refurb, but for what we paid and for a short stay it was great and definitely good value for money. Breakfast was great with plenty of choice.

    It's a bit tired. Carpets not in good condition, could do with a good clean, quite dusty, and my windowless room was noisy all night. Sounded like it was close to the laundry room or something. There's a reason it's the cheapest hotel in the area

    Great location for Canary Wharf, shower is decent.

    They can defend improve on their food, overall room experience and comfort.

    I like the location of the hotel, it's isn't far from Canary Wharf's main attractions and it's a walking distance to the DLR and the London Underground.

    We paid the extra rate for a twin room WITH windows. Have stayed here many times & frequented the hotel on other days too. However, this room, the window was blocked by the hotel's mechanics ! ( photos supplied) We should have been told of this in advance. We would never have accepted that view/room. Very disappointed.

    The hotel staff & location are great.

    The lifts were always full and we couldn't find the stairs. So many other people also went to the first floor and just wandered around looking for the stairs.

    Location was good for what we wanted.

    Male receptionist was alittle unfriendly, didn't really look at me when talking. The lady was excellent. The room was far too hot, couldn't turn down the air-conditioning, kept resetting itself back to 22 degrees. Couldn't open a window.

    Good location to the train station & restaurants, shops. Room had kettle, mini wardrobe, towels. Breakfast ok, quoissants nothing special.

    On day of arrival, reception staffs were sad, grumpy, especially the lady one. It looks like they were not with it on that day. Not very helpful. When i went to the ladies toilet, the same, the staff were grumpy, spraying air freshener even when i was using the mirror.

    The staffs that helped store our bags for storage because we arrived early than check in time were great. Morning and evening storage staffs were good.

    I pre booked to pay at the hotel on arrival with Apple Pay but they kept sending me urgent messages to pay online and saying they don’t take cash payments. I wonder when Apple Pay became cash payment. I finally paid online and it felt really forced as I was scared of if I don’t pay online, they might cancel my booking. I really really hated that.

    The location of the hotel is perfect. You have access to public transportation. The scenery, breathtaking. The room was really spacious which I loved. The bathroom was a good size. The entrance with the stairs and chandeliers, very impressive.
