Our experience was so awful I can only recommend the cleanliness of our various rooms (we had to be moved 3 times due to various disasters).The best thing had nothing to do with the actual running of the hotel,but was the view over the Thames to Canary Wharf' this was the reason I decided to return to this hotel again this time (I initially stayed there in June 2009). By the time my daughter and I checked out,we had a list of approx 15 different problems we had experienced which ruined our stay.The shuttle bus to the tube from hotel had been permanently stopped and we had not been forwarned.I Am disabled,and so had to struggle with the ferry boat to Canary Wharf every day-horrendous!The room we booked was 'Superior',yet the room we were given was run down,small, and very basic for a 4star Hilton.Eventually we were moved to a better room,but the T.V. was broken!It was eventually replaced with a very old non (lcd) flat screen.It only had channels 1-5,and 4 extra Freeview ones!Maintanence 'tried' to reboot it,but failed to the extent of leaving us with even less channels.One day our room wasn't cleaned at all,nor were we even asked if we needed anything.The final evening our ceiling leaked badly,then totally collapsed-while we were in the room.We are both rather traumatised by our so called 'holiday'.When the ceiling collapsed,something dreadful could have happened to my daughter,myself,or our possessions.An horrific thought.I Think this hotel has badly declined recently-I wish I had never,never booked it.

The hotel staff were exceptionally helpful and were happy to answer any questions. Breakfast didn't disappoint and the coffee/bar lounge was certainly appreciated after a long day. The ferry boat service was prompt and the trips between the piers were very frequent. The only difficulty we had was returning to the hotel after the last ferry boat. Because the tunnels were shut we ended up struggling to get back. Perhaps with the tunnels being closed extra information as to how to return to the hotel or run additional later ferry boat services would have been useful. But i wouldnt want to make this negative because the hotel provided everything we required, just a suggestion.

Hotel staff were very friendly and welcoming. The room was very clean, views from the hotel were breath-taking. The choice of breakfast was vast and staff were readily available to replenish drinks. Very impressed with location and value for money. Local buses ran often too and from Canada Water tube station. Would recommend to anyone.

I booked the stay for my partners birthday and asked, if possible, I would be able to get a river view to make it a bit more special. When we arrived we were told we had been upgraded to a Deluxe Plus room and the staff also said happy birthday to him on arrival. We were also met at the room with a complimentary bottle of wine and birthday card from the hotel staff. The views were just amazing of Canary Wharf cannot fault our room at all. The staff were so helpfull and made our stay extremely enjoyable. Would go back in a heartbeat. Thanks so much.

It wasn't in the location I expected it to be and was hard to find. I didn't think the room was deluxe at all. We were going to the O2 and the staff were not very helpful in guiding us towards the venue instead advising us to get a car with driver which cost £25 each way. I took my friend as a special treat and felt embarrassed that I had booked this hotel.

Excellent location for exploring Docklands area, especially with efficient water ferry crossing. Didn't get the room I booked. We were given a cheaper room even though I paid in full on booking. However, was given discount once I complained. Excellent location, but decor tired and worn. Bulb in lamp didn't work.

We were visiting the Olympic site and with the free ferry crossing over to Canary Wharf it was an easy journey for us. Reception and lobby staff knowledgeable and helpful. I thought the hotel lacked an informal lounge area - there was nowhere to relax as such. We had to sit in the bar where the only comfortable settees were taken.

nice hotel, nicely situated with the ferry, staff was friendly interior looked as if it was at least 15 years old... small room and the fact that breakfast, internet needs to be paid apart for, is annoying. Imagine I have a budget of 100 pounds, so approx. 120 pounds incl. tax... first of al lthe hotel adds the tax in addition, so it comes around 150... and moreover breakfast, internet, etc. needs to be paid for separately, and then it becomes far too expensive so it is a nice hotel, I would recommend it.. but I would say that the total price would be near to 200 pounds per night, so rather expensive.

Excellent hotel I will certainly go again. The reception staff were very efficient and the room upgrade was appreciated. The view of the docklands, was enjoyed everynight from the bedroom window. The boats going up and down the Thames a bonus. The staff were very attentive and all our requests. The room was excellent There were two minor details we were disapointed with, First the staff at the restuarant were absent when we came to dinner at the booked time it took 10 minutes to be seated, also the food was not as good as I would have expected for a 4 star establishment. The food I got was of the similar quality you can get at at a budget hotel. The staff were pleasent enough but were very slow in all they did.

We were treated very well during our stay and made to feel very welcome. We were celebrating my partners birthday and when we checked in we were given a free room upgrade and there was a £50 bottle of champagne waiting for us in the room - not bad as we only paid £112 for the room! The free ferry across the Thames is also very useful, as is the free parking and use of the health club. The breakfast was really good (included in our price but normally £18) with lots of fresh fruit available and a wide choice of cooked, continental and cereals etc. We would definitely recommend this hotel.

As this is a Hilton hotel I expected it to be of some certain standard however I was quite surprised when I arrived in there and this is the worst Hilton hotel I have stayed at. The hotel has two buildings. We were offered a room in the first building and the room was very basic old and small . We were then transferred to the other building (because I expressed my concerns to the reception staff ) which was much better however still not happy with the condition of the room comparing to other Hilton hotels I have stayed in. The hotel has a restaurant which takes ages to deliver your food and most of the time you will not get what you ordered. Hotel staff however is very helpful and friendly.

It was clean and staff were friendly. Room was fantastic ( deluxe plus) although bathroom a little dated and plain. The drivers were very good and the cars were very nice ( bmw and a Mercedes). Location was not ideal. The tube was a fair distance away, although there was a local bus that took you to the station the cost was just under £5 for us as a couple for a single ticket - the hotel bmw private transfer was only £6 so we opted for that!! The bus was fine when using the one day travel card but first thing in the morning there was no way of getting this until you reached the tube station! The ferry service provided was fair although once on the other side of the Thames there was still a long walk to canary wharf tube so was not actually of any benefit.
