2/5 Poor

Business traveller
Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The front desk employees were quite helpful, however the rooms were quite dirty and the shower smelled like mold. I went to the restaurant to get lunch and was told that they were too full to take me in even though there were only 2 tables in the restaurant. When I asked the host about this she told me they had a large party in the back and that I could “try McDonalds instead”. I found out this was a lie when I spoke to another server and she let me sit and order a salad. There was no table in the back. This was non excusable service.

Love the Aloft hotel chains around the world, they are always so convenient and fun to be at. Great crowd of people and such a convenient walk away from the London Excel centre. Would strongly recommend staying here again!

1/5 Terrible

Travelled with family and small children
Disliked: Staff & service
Customer service was shocking Prior to coming to the property I tried to arrange with the hotel about getting balloons and a cake delivered from an external person however would take over half an hour to get through to them on the phones before getting cut off on several occasions or getting through to someone abroad who could not help. On the day of arrival, they sent the cake person to another room and had given them a key which was shocking and annoying as I had specified prior to my stay that they were going to the king room booking The facilities at the hotel were all out of use - the swimming pool was closed throughout our stay, the outside was a construction site and there was no clear signs as to where the car park was. When booking we were not told about the damage deposit which we would get back later and this was a shock on arrival Our booking was reserved on expedia and then we paid on arrival - they tried to charge me again for my room at check out as they did not have the details right Had written a review on arrival and the hotel did not contact me to see if there is anything they could do to make our stay better
Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2022
