The hotel is is perfect for 02 concerts. It was close to the O2 and to North Greenwich Station, making it easy to get around. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast was a bit disappointing, though - the staff refused to cook anymore saying, "it's un-healthy for you" which to me is very rude, ALSO NO FRIED EGGS. Overall, it was a good stay but the breakfast needs improving.

The staff were so lovely and cute, always cheerfully greeting guests and giving them lots of information. The location was perfect for a night at the 02, just a short walk away! My room was really comfortable and more modern than I was expecting. Breakfast had a limited selection, although there was nice fresh fruit and juices and a hot breakfast on offer in the morning. I'd definitely stay again!
