DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel London ExCeL is one of the better hotels on the eastern side of the ExCeL exhibition centre. When there is nothing scheduled at ExCeL, this hotel can be a good value place to stay considering the standard of accommodation.
Formerly known as the Ramada Hotel & Suites London Docklands, this DoubleTree hotel offers a high standard of accommodation and it is a popular option with business travellers visiting London to attend an event at ExCeL.
The 287 hotel rooms are all air-conditioned with comfortable beds, a work desk, a flatscreen television, ironing facilities, tea and coffee making facilities and en suite bathrooms. Deluxe rooms are a little larger at 24m² (258 sq ft), compared with the 21m² (195 sq ft) standard rooms. Several of the queen rooms are wheelchair accessible.
The hotel’s dining options include Bidder & Co, the hotel’s lounge bar, and the Salt Port Restaurant and Deli, which serves British and European cuisine in a spacious area with floor-to-ceiling windows.
Guests have access to the hotel’s gym, although the gym is a lot smaller than you would expect for a hotel of this standard.
Free Wi-Fi wireless internet access is available throughout the hotel.
The hotel is only a five-minute walk from the ExCeL exhibition and convention centre and around a 15-minute walk from the terminal building at London City Airport. It is part of a cluster of hotels near ExCeL (which also include a Travelodge, a Hampton by Hilton, a Holiday Inn Express, a Moxy, the Aloft London ExCeL and a Premier Inn).
The immediate neighbourhood feels barren and charmless with modern hotels surrounded by car parking; however, it is probably one of the better-located hotels near ExCeL as it is only a two-minute walk to the Fox @ Connaught pub, which is the only building in the area to have any character.
It is a six-minute walk from Prince Regent DLR station, which is around a 20-minute ride from The City with trains running every eight minutes or so.
