I got back from staying at the London Ibis Excel a few weeks ago. I went with a large group and at 1 pm we checked in and got our rooms. The rooms were average in size. My room had a king bed and a twin bed. The bathroom was not that great. It was so tiny only one person... more

It's an Ibis hotel, so be prepared for loads of teenage tour groups! I was in one of them. This isn't really a problem since the walls are thick enough, and the teens seem to contain their frivolity to the lobby. Unfortunately, there's only one telephone in the lobby and if you happen to need that phone, be prepared to... more

This is an Ibis hotel. That means you pay a reasonable amount and get the standard Ibis service - fine but no great frills. If you want great luxury then go someplace else. If you want a fair price for an OK bed in London with reasonable services then this is fine. For me, three major plus points: fairly easy... more

Arrived at hotel just past midnight, having booked it four months in advance, to be told that they had no room for us!!! They taxied us to their Barking hotel, which was no where near any underground station and gave us a mere £10 reduction for our trouble!! So if you book this hotel, I recommend, you telephone on the... more

I stayed at this hotel for three nights with a bunch of EF tour groups (made up of high school and older middle school kids). When my group first went inside the hotel, we were pleased to see a very modern interior design. It didn't look like a nasty, cheap hotel; it was actually quite pretty. Hope that you won't... more

Just used this hotel for 1 night stay to save either of us driving or travelling late. Brilliant value for money considerig location and people should bear this in mind when reading the negative reviews. Room is small but very functional and spotlessly clean, as is the whole hotel. Also breakfast is again great VFM, with ample choice of breads,... more

Initially I was going to stay at another hotel, but then read reviews on this page that made me think twice. A couple of posters gave me the heads up on the Ibis Excel and after checking its reviews on here I decided to go ahead and book it. I just got back today! I visited London with my 11... more

Me and my sister stayed here for one night as we were down to see the Spice Girls :) It was a great hotel to stay in but we only stayed for one night, i might feel a bit different if it was 4 or 5 days as the rooms are quite small. They were clean and the view from... more
