Great hotel featured a pool sauna ans steam room and gym sadly unable to use as didn't get time. Breakfast was great and the freshly made pancakes made the kids soo happy. The only thing is the room was dusty and not sure about the fridge if it was working. After checking out, we was given free donuts which the kid's loved.!

Clean, comfortable room. Nice cool temperature indoors during the May bank holiday heatwave along with ice buckets in the rooms, and very easy access for Excel. Only gripe is wishing the rooms had normal bathroom doors instead of a heavy sliding-mirror situation, as there is no privacy even in a room designed for sharing for showering or using the toilet. Pool and sauna facilities were a very welcome treat and easily accessed with spare towels and easy to use lockers with your room keycard.

Unfortunately the shower in our room had a dreadful sewage smell. We reported this in the afternoon but it had worsened on our return late evening. Eventually we had to move rooms at midnight. The hotel did discount our parking for the inconvenience which was a nice gesture. Apart from that, the hotel was lovely and modern, the bar was great as was the breakfast in the morning. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. We would go back assuming the sewage problem was a one off and we were just unlucky.

We stayed at this property twice in the last month as we toured Europe with family. We got a free room upgrade as the family rooms were overbooked when we arrived. Housekeeping was quick and attentive. Comfortable beds and clean rooms. Breakfast was nice with lots of healthy options. Location is great and accessible by train. We will be back!

Exceptional Five Star Experience at Aloft London Excel I recently had the pleasure of returning to this fantastic hotel, and once again, the level of hospitality was nothing short of world class. From start to finish, the team went above and beyond to ensure a seamless and comfortable stay. The service here is truly five star, defined by a genuine warmth that is rare to find. I want to extend a special thank you to the operational manager, Alexandros Tsarnas, for maintaining such high standards across the property. It is clear that excellence is a priority here. Outstanding Staff Recognition A few individuals made my stay particularly memorable: Anuska (Receptionist): She is an absolute credit to the hotel. Anuska is incredibly good at her job, always smiling and radiating a positive energy that makes you feel instantly welcome. Sagar Singh (Duty Manager): I am immensely grateful to Sagar for his incredible kindness and professional touch. He handled my room allocation with great care and was generous enough to grant a late check out until 16:00, which made a huge difference to my trip. The attention to detail and the willingness to look after guests is what sets this hotel apart. Whether you are visiting for business or leisure, the team ensures you are well taken care of. I have already begun sharing my positive experiences with others, and I will certainly be back. Thank you for making my stay so special.

Lovely stay and lovely stay. You can watch the planes take off and land. Which my daughter loved. Very convenient location. We also walked down to ride the cable cars to the o2 which was fun and great views. The pool was mild temperature not freezing atall but the room/air in there does get hot. There is a £25 security deposit per night.

Lovely short stay. Directions when we got of the DLR were not great, we followed some other people to find the 2nd floor entrance.

We like this hotel as it is reasonably priced, has a 24hr gym, half decent pool, sauna and steam room. It is also 2 minutes away from the DLR (docklands light railway) giving easy access to central London and the west end. We always book parking through 'Your Parking Space' If you do this you can cut that car parking costs in half although you will have a 5 minute walk to the hotel itself.
