I rate IBIS London Excel Docklands 5 Stars

Incredible find in a tourist area that is full of activities. I rate the IBIS London Excel Docklands 5 Stars. My room is equipped with an Espresso machine, kettle, coffee, bath robe, full size towel, rain shower, window that overlooks the river, king bed, extra pillow, and big screen TV. The staff is friendly and provide excellent service. Best of all, the hotel is walking distance from the train station, restaurants, attractions and the water. It has a bar, restaurant and security system in house. All for under 100 pounds per night!

Good location

Great location and despite being in the flight path for London city airport the noise wasn’t too disruptive. Staff were attentive and friendly and is a few minutes walk to the cable cars. Train station is also a short walk away. The bathrooms were a bit strange, but otherwise the room was clean, albeit very hot in summer.

Lovely stay.

Stayed in the Ibis excel for two nights with my daughter because we travelled to see Kim Seokjin at the o2. Cannot find anything wrong with our stay. Definitely recommend this hotel. Gluten free options are limited here (daughter is coeliac) but they do their pizza on a gluten free base at request and she really enjoyed it.

I recently stayed at the Ibis Hotel in London and had a fantastic experience. The hotel offers great value for money, with clean, modern rooms and all the essentials for a comfortable stay. The staff were friendly, efficient, and always willing to help. Check-in and check-out were quick and smooth, and I really felt welcomed from the moment I arrived. I would highly recommend the Ibis Hotel in London for anyone looking for a reliable, comfortable, and affordable place to stay in the city and enjoy a fantastic view as well. Would definitely book again!

Staff are very welcoming and look after you well. Rooms are very good, and well presented and clean. Great location, very easy access to O2 arena. Enough shops and food outlets close by. Definitely worth it, and I wouldn't hesitate to book again.
