Typical London. Pay top price for a room, parking on top. Pay for it all. Very expensive for not much at all.

Bad layout, poor condition, not at the Excel
Lifts are through the main restaurant so you have to pick your way through packed diners and servers every time you enter/exit the building, extra awkward with bags. Bed rock solid and bedding smelt like stale water, air conditioning started an awful loud death banging at 3am with no apparent way to turn off - you can only adjust the thermostat. Claims to be 5 minutes walk from the Excel but it's actually 20+ minutes walk from the back entrance all around the roads - better off staying further away near a DLR/Liz stop and you'll spend less time in transit!

Pleasant experience. Appreciated the extra water and snacks as nothing local in walk from DLR. Staff very helpful.

Not anything special. A disappointment
For a double tree, a very unremarkable room with a ‘water view’. The room was in was so far round the building the promised water view was nothing short of a gap between a building. In checking out and picking up my back the staff member could not have been more uninterested

They forgot to book my early cab!
Needed a 5 am taxi to airport & booked with reception around 4pm the day before. Next morning 05:00, no taxi & reception knew nothing about it. Not good enough, i expect better from a Hilton hotel.

Cookies and Cupcakes
It was our anniversary and they left us some amazing cupcakes in our room to say congrats, which was so lovely. They were also welcoming guests at check in with these ridiculously delicious warm cookies… I still dream about them. Bed was super comfy. The only thing I’d ask for improvement is to make the TV a smart tv, so that we can access our Netflix etc, but it’s not a big deal at all. The baked goods up for it

Hotel was great, bed really comfortable, and the whole site was very clean.
The breakfast was varied, but the hot food was a little cold unfortunately.

There was no fridge in the room to keep water or milk cold or any other drinks for that matter. All Hilton hotels should provide a fridge in the rooms i paid £195 a night for a deluxe room really not happy about that.
I expected a fridge in my room and having to pay a charge to have food in my room not expectable.
Also the lighting in the room and bathroom is bad. that needs looking at.
We had people on the river with a drone looking in our room not good either.
Also I told the cleaner that i did not need her to clean my room or empty the bin.
To my surprise when I came back from restaurant to order food, I found her in my room why ? I already told her not to worry many times - if a customer says no then they should respect that.
