Excellent

It was a clean, tidy and modern hotel. We were lucky enough to be upgraded to a room on the 8th floor overlooking the trainline and London.
Be aware there is building work going on surrounding the hotel which now restricts views and accessibility.
The bed was huge and comfortable (but rather warm!) Facilities were clean with everything there and working.
Our room was quiet as we were away from the lifts and ground floor. We didn't need to have our room cleaned but the staff were friendly and everything looked tidy.
Breakfast was good. Better on our first morning as the second was busy and some items ran out. The restaurant was also quite noisy but we found a less busy spot.
A mix of visitors, business, couples, friends and family etc.
One downside was the pool area.( We had booked this hotel in part because of it's pool. ) It is a small pool with swimming lessons taking part every morning. Many children in and out, families stood watching and noise and commotion in the pool area. Access to the sauna and steam room is restricted to certain times too. I'd advise checking as no information on the website.
Very handy for the train in and out with a few changes.
Aloft House next to the Excel is a great place to stay if you want to explore London. Right next to the DLR line and the Elizabeth Line just a short walk away.
The hotel has good size rooms, which are modern and clean.
Great restaurant and bar with a great selection at reasonable prices.
If you opt for breakfast included, there is a great selection of food that caters for everyone
Staff are very attentive and provided great customer service
Great staff. The room was beautiful and well equipped, only downfall for us was the AC, it was not getting hot, it constantly felt like it was blowing cold air and it was quite a chilly weekend.
Everything else was good.
Didnt give us the kingsize bedroom we paid for. Downgraded us to two single beds. Very unimpressed that they gave away a bedroom we paid for ages ago and then have the gaul to downgrade us. On top of that had to remind breakfast staff several times to give us fried eggs. Wont be staying here again.
Great location right next to the excel and also prince Regent DLR station is only 2 mins walk, staff were great, hotel was quiet and spotless will def stay there again
Despite the lovely staff and lovely venue I was terribly disappointed with this stay, when I arrived I was greeted with construction work that I had zero warning of otherwise I would not have booked
My room was a nice size, on the second floor
My windows were facing a brick wall and construction work vehicles which was depressing within itself
I could have stayed and got over all of that, but the thing that ruined it all until the point I had to check out was
The whole corridor stank to high heavens of paint and cannabis
To the point I actually threw up and had to leave at 2am in the morning
I don’t know what type of paint was being used but it I do know they were painting the restaurant area
My room was near enough on the other end of the hotel and it’s all I could smell until I left
Also, I & my wife was unable to use any facilities as it was full of single men drinking and laughing
It was a very uncomfortable experience walking into the swimming area and me and my other half had to leave as there wasn’t anywhere for us to relax
