Excellent Value Hotel
We were visiting the area for a trade event, at Tobacco Dock, and the hotel was in a great location. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the venue was clean and comfortable. A great hotel and very good value, we will definitely be going back if we are staying in the are again.

Our stay wasn’t terrible but I certainly wouldn’t be recommending this hotel to anyone. The best thing about it is the closeness to public transport.
Our room was in an awful state of disrepair. The ceilings show a history of leaks into the room and on our first day there was actually a leak coming through.
We also witnessed what looked like bed bugs.
The staff were friendly in the few dealings we had with them.

The hotel is very close to the train station making it easy to get into central London.
The staff are very friendly and helpful.
The hotel is in need of decoration but this is purely cosmetic and did not dampen our stay.

Stayed two nights visiting London for a show, the hotel is a two minute walk from Shadwell DLR so very convenient.
Breakfast was fine each morning, something for everyone.

A place to book when everywhere else is full or ridiculously expensive. Functional low end hotel. Room was clean, water was hot, staff were helpful, breakfast was adequate. Pretty basic, small rooms. Not much going on in neighborhood.

What a lovely hotel with such welcoming and friendly staff! Excellent location being so close to the DLR and overground. Very quiet and well sound proofed inside. Had a great night’s sleep.
The room had lovely interiors and thought out decor - bed comfy, nice pillows and a powerful shower.
Breakfast was a nice addition and the filter coffee was sublime!
Only area can think of improvement would be an additional towel in the room and some more vegan options at breakfast, although there was enough for me to enjoy!
Thank you Dockside

You Pays Your Money, You Takes Your Choice
Given the price, the location was close to the areas I needed to be. If you are paying for a budget room, the condition will be passable at best. If I could not find any other hotels in this area I would stay again, but I will look elsewhere first.

Dockside - good value for the money
For the money (£117) this hotel did what we needed for the night. 5 mins from DLR & overground. Not really a tourist area & some would dubious about staying in this area, but hey we wanted a cheap hotel (father & son) , out drinking both days ,watching Sunderland at Wembley & Brighton at Spurs ⚽️❤️⚽️💙 The hotel allowed us to leave our overnight bag with them on both days, thanks for that 😁

Reception was friendly, lady serving breakfast was really helpful and friendly too. Breakfast was nice with option of beans, egg and sausage available as part of the buffet style breakfast.
The location was really good. I had a friend staying in a more expensive hotel near St Paul's Cathedral but needed somewhere cheaper. Shadwell station was just around the corner, I got on there and off at Bank tube station (tube took 3:minutes) and then had a brisk 10 minute walk to St Paul's Cathedral.
For under £100 you will struggle to find better within such a short distance of central London. I loved it there and intend to return.

Check in was good and easy,
Standards of the room were not ideal. Room was grubby with staining/water marks on walls. Bathroom was dirty with mould and grim in the shower. Breakfast was dismal, very hot in the basement with food sweating and if poor standard. I have never been to a hotel that offers cherry bakewells for breakfast.
