Was Gäste sagen

Das Novotel London Excel wird für seine günstige Lage neben dem ExCeL gelobt, mit guten Verbindungen zur Elizabeth Line, der DLR und der Seilbahn zum O2, was es zu einer praktischen Basis für Veranstaltungen, An- und Abreise zum Flughafen und Ausflüge in die Docklands macht.

Viele Gäste heben den freundlichen und zuvorkommenden Service hervor, mit gelegentlichen Upgrades und einem effizienten Check-in. Die Zimmer sind im Allgemeinen komfortabel und modern mit guter Aussicht, aber wiederkehrende Beschwerden beziehen sich auf eine ineffektive Klimaanlage oder Heizung, begrenzte Steckdosen, gelegentlicher Lärm vom City Airport und ungünstige Aufteilungen mit separaten Toiletten. Die Sauberkeit ist unterschiedlich, und das Feedback zum Essen variiert von guten Frühstücksangeboten und Mahlzeiten auf der Terrasse bis hin zu überfülltem Service, kaltem Essen und hohen Preisen; auch die Barbesetzung sowie Verfügbarkeit und Gebühren für die Parkplätze werden kritisiert. Am besten geeignet für Besucher von Veranstaltungen, die Wert auf Lage und soliden Service legen und weniger Wert auf einwandfreie Zimmer oder Annehmlichkeiten.

KI-Zusammenfassung aktueller Gästebewertungen

Ausstattung

Beliebte Atmosphäre auf der Terrasse/Bar und gute Getränkeauswahl, aber die Bar kann unterbesetzt sein. Die Parkmöglichkeiten sind begrenzt, werden mit der Öffentlichkeit geteilt und sind teuer, wobei es während ExCeL-Veranstaltungen zu Verfügbarkeitsproblemen kommen kann; vereinzelt werden Probleme beim Zugang oder bei Evakuierungen gemeldet.

Always a good stay/ location for the horse show. Breakfast good choice but need more drinks machines or separate hot water for tea as 2 machines not enough for volume of customers. Reception toilets always smell stale though so please consider an air freshener with regular bursts !!

The small hotel parking is open to public for the same price, and hotel being next to the Excel means there is nooo parking space available during an event. The sign when entering the parking always says there is space, but it’s not true, when you get in, you will see there is no car park available and many cars already entered and found no space is available, and now they have to pay £5 to exit the car park.

The room was ready. Expensive due to being marathon weekend which is why we were there. Good condition. Unfortunately a fire alarm and evacuation really spoiled the stay, standing in the cold with a child after 10pm waiting to be let back in less than ideal.

The hotel and breakfast were great as per every other time we have stayed and the Elizabeth Line has made getting into central London so much quicker and easier. The only downside to the stay was the parking charges. £50 for 30 hours parking on top of the £25 congestion charge will make us think twice about using Novotel Excel in the future.

Our first choice when visiting London. A great hotel with a fabulous terrace for a coffee or a cocktail, soaking up the sun. Easy access to the city and great to pop over to the O2 on the cable car for dinner. Lovely meal in the restaurant one night with attentive service from Klea.

Not a 4 star hotel and not superior room. You are better off staying at Travelodge. Bathroom is small and needs updating, toilet is separate from bathroom. Carpets were stained and dirty in bedroom. This is not worth £159 for one night and on top of eveything you have to pay £25 to park your car. Staff were friendly.

The accommodation was in a perfect location for London Excel with excellent public transportation getting there. My room was comfortable and quiet. The only 2 main problems were in the bathroom. The bathroom sink wouldn’t drain which was a bit gross. The shower head was impossible to tilt down therefore the water shot out horizontally, this was awkward.

When we got into our room, we discovered that the room had not been cleaned well at all from the previous people who had stayed in it. There were used mugs (with coffee and milk still in them) lying around, used slippers and towels still in the bathroom, as well as opened and used toiletries (I believe they were make up pads, didn't really want to touch and find out), and the iron was left out on the desk. The bed sheets weren't very big and didn't really cover the bed properly. As we were leaving we also realised there was also a brown stain on the wall behind the bed. Not good unfortunately, and surprising considering how nice the lobby and reception areas appeared downstairs, but the room did not live up to the expectations sadly.

Hotel smelled lovely. Most of the people working reception was kind and helpful... Unfortunately I had to ask twice for my shower to be looked at because it did not drain well most of my stay. Found discarded plastic under the sofa bed. Our room had no drinking water, shower caps or even footwear like the other rooms. I loved the location but there can be improvements in service.

At first glance, the hotel looks nice, but the furnishings and finishes were rather poor quality and showing signs of wear. The lobby bathrooms were always dirty, and our room had about 6" of dust on the shower vent that we had to report to the staff to clean. Plus, the tub was dirty (we didn't even think of using it), the toilet area smelled of urine the entire time of our stay, and dust was hanging from the ceiling over our bed. The breakfast buffet kicked us out as soon as the hours over. The other restaurant had an extremely limited menu. Plus, we were yelled at for eating outside food in the lobby (even though the hotel restaurant had already stopped serving.) There were three of us staying in our room, and we had no space to eat in there. Plus, the fitted sheet did not tuck in on the top, and the bare mattress kept being exposed which is completely unsanitary. I also do not recommend if you are planning on visiting the city center a lot since it is a bit of a trek to get there.

Public common areas were nice and clean. Room bedding was good but curtains were filled with bugs and bug eggs. A/C was not great. Looks like room service does bare minimums. If you more a sofa or remotely look around the room in less obvious areas you’ll notice tons of filth. However, overall not a bad little place.

Mohammed at the desk was great. Inability to talk to hotel was frustrating from moment one. Expedia was not helpful there either. Could not adjust anything and though I told them well ahead one room would leave one day early there was no willingness to give credit…though we had 7 people for 6 nights. Nights were impossible to cool despite being cold outside. Needed a fan plus windows open to be bearable. That was for all 4 rooms. Also have two elevators to get from room to hotel exit.

Good location for Excel and surrounding dockland venues. Our room was quiet. We could open the window but there was noise from the nearby airport. Looking out on to a stony vista. Strange layout in our twin room as the loo was located around the corner from the bathroom which had a separate shower and bath. Staying here suited our needs, so if all you need is a bed for the night I would recommend

Overall, this is an OK hotel. Pretty much what you would expect for a typical Novotel. Depending on the time of year (and potential events happening at the Excel), I have found room rates between £100 & £300. The issue for me is the lack of proper air conditioning. The controls in the bedrooms have little affect on the temperature (summer or winter). The result is an extremely hot & stuffy room, with a small window that only opens a small amount. I have stayed several times and always reported the issue, but it hasn't changed. As a result, our company will now be using an alternative hotel for future stays.

Außergewöhnlich günstig gelegen für das ExCeL mit schnellen Verbindungen über die Elizabeth Line, die DLR und die Seilbahn zum O2; in der Nähe befindet sich viel. Einige finden es jedoch zu weit für häufige Besichtigungen im Stadtzentrum, und Lichtschläfer könnten Fluglärm wahrnehmen.

Lovely hotel with very helpful staff. Great location for Excel. The room was big enough for two with all the facilities fitted in a relatively small space.

There was plenty of choice for breakfast and good quality food.

Perfectly good hotel conveniently located for the Excel. We did not sleep due to the heat in the room which we had no control over. We had not been informed that there was work or issues with the heating system. Was disappointed with my main course at dinner which was not served with the baby new potatoes as per the menu description. Instead, without asking me, it came with a rather bizarre potato cake which I was told had vegetables in it but did in fact contain olives. My husband tasted it & declared it not at all nice. I was not offered an alternative.
