Advantages: close to 02, good value, comfortable
Disadvantages: run-down area, rushed staff

We stayed here in April while attending an event at the 02. The location is ideal for the O2 - just one stop away on the Jubilee line. It's great when you leave the O2 because most people are heading in the other direction! The rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff were polite, but seemed very rushed. When we asked for more pillows they never arrived. The breakfast was adequate and as expected. Plenty of cereals, fruit, toast and pastires ...
...the hotel, the area is quite run-down. I wouldn't have been comfortable walking from the tube station to the hotel in the dark on my own. Luckily it is only a short walk away. All in all it wasn't bad for the price, and was ideal as a base for attending events at the O2. ... Read review

Advantages: Handy location, good rooms
Disadvantages: Not really any

I stayed at this Greenwich hotel this Christmas and was drawn to it because of its cheap price for quality rooms. I booked through hoteldirect.co.uk. The location of the hotel is excellent. Although the area around it is not very aesthetically pleasing, it is close to the O2 arena and a local retail park which was great for my holiday, yet it is far away from central London so not busy.The hotel is near the Blackwell Tunnel and I was anxious about ...
...was not the case. From the hotel you can see many great things such as the O2 and Canary Wharf, which produced some great shots on my camera. The staff were helpful but not intrusive on my visit. The rooms themselves are probably described as being quite basic. However I am used to traveling abroad to countries like Greece, so I thought the room was great. The beds were clean and comfortable, the bathroom complete with a power shower and W.C.. ... Read review

...in London staying at the Americana Hotel in a twin room. Not the largest room but as we did not spend much time there other than for sleeping this was not a problem. The room had plenty of storage space and was lovely and warm and secondary glazing meant that the room was fairly quiet even though it was on the main road.The hotel has recently been refurbished and was quite well fitted although the carpets and bedspreads were rather grubby. However ...
...towels were changed daily. Breakfast is served between 7.30 & 9.30 each day though earlier breakfast is available by arrangement. There was a good choice of fruit, yogurt,cereal, toast or bread rolls with meat, cheese or hard boiled eggs and juice or hot drinks. Check out hotel websites before booking - we paid £188 for 3 nights, but some sites were offering the hotel price of £345 (£115 per night ). Don't think it's worth this but if you can get ...
