Wonderful welcome when we checked in, lots of useful local advice. Then my partner became unwell with a horrible migraine.

We chose this hotel for our conference/annual reunion as they offer very competitive rates at weekends, and it gave us the opportunity to offer some interesting excursions in a fast changing part of London which many delegates had not seen before. But this is one occasion where even I would accept using a satnav - on my first visit my... More

Stayed here with the missus and kids for a day as was visiting the O2 Arena,. Stay was a good one. Upon check-in there seemed to be a slight mix up with the reservations as there was no indication of an extra bed in the room.

Perfectly acceptable stay whilst on business. Was upgraded to a Junior Suite as I am a Platinum Priority Club member. Not that different from the regular rooms except the six and it's about 50% bigger. Nice desk to work at and good size bathroom with full set of toiletries (unlike some other Crowne Plazas recently). Breakfast was normal fare but... More
