Docklands development, with magnificent views of Canary Wharf, the tallest building in London. The hotel is close to the Millennium Dome, the London Arena is close by and the City Airport is only ten minutes drive away. Access to the West End is via the Docklands Light Railway and tube link. The hotel is well endowed with facilities, especially leisure, with a gym and swimming pool available to guests.
Advantages: Good location for Docklands and City Airport Disadvantages: Overpriced, low standards, bad service

Normally we'd stay either in Piccadily or Leicester Square but this time we thought we'd venture out a bit and try somewhere different. The Canary Wharf seemed a good choice as there were also a good selection of shops and restaurants there.
We waited in the queue for 40mins before anyone could attend to us. By this time we were pretty fed up as we just wanted to relax and chill ... ...we have one? The room that we had booked (jacuzzi room) was not available but instead we could have a twin room. A twin room for a couple who've gone away on a romantic weekend together!! So, instead of upgrading us for their mistake they were downgrading us to a smaller room. Of course we kicked up a fuss!
