The Thames Barrier from the eastern side by the Viewpoint Cafe, with Canary Wharf in the background.

Although last night was pretty windy and chilly, the light was pretty nice with big clouds moving in the sky.

I even had the chance (i.e. I did not plan it this way) to get there around when the tide was flipping direction. The barrier was up when I arrived and they pulled it back when the tide started to go down.

Recent reviews of Woolwich hotels

5/5 Excellent

Reasonable value if visiting events in the area.

"In this area, definitely represents value for money. I appreciate the privacy option for whether or not one wants the room serviced & think it helps to be more ecofriendly. Only gets a 4 on this count because of the plastic travel sized toiletries.My room did overlook the railway tracks and were I a light sleeper I might have been disturbed by this."
