The Crowne Plaza is a great hotel if you have occasion to be on this dock or if you are visiting the Excel or O2. Do not stay here if you will be spending your entire trip sightseeing in central London. As stated, it is about an hour's ride on the DLR and then the Tube. Choose a hotel closer... more

Stayed for a corporate conferance. This is a nice hotel with clean rooms and good food, although we were a bit upset about getting the same salmon starter at lunch as we had for dinner the night before. Staff fine. Bar expensive (£9.50 for vodka and redbull). Sorry i cannot be more enthusiastic but this is just a bland characterless... more

I suppose I didn't have too many problems - just annoyances - £15 for wireless that's free in most places, pn top of a stiff £129 single room (ok, it's London, but so what). This is a characterless box in a dreary redevelopment of docks. Rooms are fine, but elsewhere it's grim al the way. Reception is slow, breakfast shockingly... more

Six of us stayed at this hotel last week. We really enjoyed our stay, check in was fast and efficient, rooms were lovely we were on the 5th floor beds very soft and comfy. We used the pool twice very clean staff there werent great and both times we went down there was no one at the desk so we... more

We stayed at The Crowne Plaza for two nights with our 6yr old son. The Hotel is lovely and well worthy of it's four stars. We got an amazing deal which just about made up for it's location - about an hours worth of train rides into the heart of London! Although tube/DLR prices are very good a two hour... more

Great location for the Excel, however the service in this hotel is terrible. We were not told until we arrived that the restaurant and bar would be closed for refurbishment and we were not given a reduction in the rate for this inconveniece. The bar and restaurant were not in need of a refurb. if anything needs to be replaced,... more

We stayed at the Crowne Plaza for just one night, as we were going to the Motor Show and to see Squeeze playing in the evening. We arrived before check in time and parked in the car park, having checked with reception that it would be OK. Car park is charged per 24 hours and, upon checkout, we seemed to... more

Quite far out from central london, but only 5 mins by tube to the o2 arena. DLR station next to hotel. Actually had the o2 Arena as the view from my room. Would reccommend if only travelling in to see a concert and then leaving early the next day. Not that practical if planning to shop or sight see. Especially... more

I was pleasantly surprised with the Crowne Plaza and found the service to be excellent. I read the rest of the trip Advisor reviews prior to booking and one guest had mentioned about views of the car park on one side and views of the waterside on the other. So on checking in I asked which side we'd been allotted,... more
