Great location

Great location for the O2 arena and a 15 min walk to the Utilita arena. Also for the canal/bars etc. Great reception and comfy seating on first floor. Breakfast was buffet style with lots of choice. Comfy bed and pillows, clean room & shower. Usually parking available underneath the hotel but this was blocked off on our arrival. Staff informed us that there was an NCP just around the corner which worked well, however it would have been nice to an email to let us know.

Should have been a 5 but for one issue

Stayed on the hottest day of the year only to find out the rooms have no airc onditioning. I turned up the fan to full only to find out from reception that this was circulating air from outside. So my room ended up being hotter than when I entered. Event the corridor was cooler.
