Hilton London Canary Wharf

My wife and I stayed at the Hilton on Canary Wharf for one night recently. It was brilliant.

Firstly the location is great for the O2 and for Greenwich, one of the best sights in the whole of London. South Quay DLR is opposite the hotel and the Jubilee line tube is a short walk from the rear of the hotel. Also, the buildings of Canary Wharf are worth a visit just on their own.

The room we had was a superior double on the 9th floor. It was huge and very well equipped and spotlessly clean. We booked the room through an online agency and got a very good deal with full breakfast included - and the breakfast was good with excellent service.

All staff were polite and helpful and the Concierge service was very useful.

We parked our car in the underground car park. This was secure and clean but cost £20 for a 24hr period. We thought it was worth it as our room deal had been so good.

We will return to this hotel again as soon as we can.

Although we live only 20 mins from London we wondered what it would be like to be tourists for a few days. On arrival at the hotel we were very impressed at the courteous service, when we got to the room we were amazed, massive bed, plasma TV, bottles of water and fresh flowers. The room was air conditioned and also appeared to be sound proofed as we could not hear a thing on a busy day at Canary Wharf. Breakfast was wonderful , you could eat as much as you wanted.Only down side is that drinks in the bar are extortionate prices, do they really have to be so overpriced?

All in all we loved our stay at the Hilton, sheer luxury!

My fiancee and i went on a 2 night, 3 day trip to london and stayed at the Hilton Canary Wharf for both nights on a Bed and Breakfast Rate.

The check in when we arrived was super fast, literally took 20 seconds to get our key cards and sign a form.

We then got straight in the enormous super fast lifts to our 9th floor room which was overlooking the Thames and the Bridge.

The room was absolutely massive, with double bed, comfortable chair, desk incorporating a hair dryer, mini bar (items at cost), tea and coffee making facilities with biscuits, television, alarm clock with radio, an array of lamps and lighting and a good sized wardrobe with an iron and ironing board and a safe.

The bathroom again was a lovely size, shower was brilliant and plenty of fresh clean towels, they also supplied us with lovely Crabtree and Evelyn shower gel and shampoo etc.

The breakfast was fantastic again, seated straight away and offered tea and/or coffee and orange juice at the table, after that it is just a help yourself buffet with a great variety of hot and cold foods and different juices. They also offer pancakes, belgian waffles and porridge at your request, we had the pancakes both days and they were lovely and came to us within 3 minutes.

All in all the hotel is perfect, not only that but the location to the Canary Wharf Tube is only a 5-10 minute stroll, and if your going quickly it only takes 3 minutes as we found out.

The shopping centre is also connected to the tube station and this itself would take a whole day to get around.

Bus stops are also outside the tube station which is only across the footbridge.
