Good hotel

Very good stay, excellent location for the O2 and very close to Canning Town tube station. Staff were very attentive and helpful. Lovely, clean but basic hotel with good links to central or Easy London. Breakfast a bit basic but generally good choice of cooked English and continental options. Secure on site parking for £20 per night. Little Sainsburys Local opposite which was handy too. Overall a good little stay and would book again if visiting the O2 or vicinity

room clean comes late

It is as expected for this price. One issue was that room cleaning comes after 5pm when I am back. The room was empty for the whole day and I expect that to be done when I am not around. I even hung the 'please clean' tag on the door but that did not make any difference.

Holiday Inn Canning Town - great location for 02

Okay if you need a cheap one night stay

When we walked into the hotel room we first noticed a large muddy patch, the rest of the carpet were no better. In the bathroom about 50% of the floor tiles were cracked, the silicone was yellow or orange with only a few areas being white and on the ceiling in the bathroom I noticed black mould. Breakfast in the morning was an average English breakfast so there's not much to say there.

Not the best

Light over mirror turned its self on and off throughout the night, the toilet flushed constantly, the usb plugs and light on one side of the bed didn’t work. Nor did the light above the bed. People were using the lift so we climbed 3 flights of stairs but or keycard wouldn’t let us through the stairwell door at the top. Spoke to receptionist and they said the keycards don’t usually work in the stairwells. Comfortable bed, and once asleep we did sleep well, until the people above decided to have a very loud shower at 2.30am

Basic but functional

We had to move rooms as the first had smelly drains (room 110) Second room (330) had window that didn't shut properly so we had road noise. Hotel very basic and a bit tired but functional. Breakfast was plentiful. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Friendly and helpful service despite room

I was put into room 315 twin room for me and my daughter and I was disappointed at the condition of the carpet stained on the entrance to the room and the back of the bathroom door wood panel chipped at the bottom. Also the painted surface near the toilet area was black from mould. I would not say this was a 3 star hotel more like a 2 star for the condition of the room I was put into and not liking the view at the back of the room looking at a derelict building not a pretty view. To finish on a positive note though the staff were friendly and attentive and the breakfast choice especially gluten free was good. Location of hotel excellent for tube station
