Aloft London Excel was an outstanding choice for our London vacation. The hotel was immaculate and very comfortable, with cold air conditioning, modern bathrooms, and spacious twin bed rooms. The tube station was very convenient, especially once we realized we could enter and exit the hotel at the back, near Docksiders restaurant. The area around the hotel doesn’t have many restaurants, but Docksiders was a good choice for dinner. There are also many places to order food delivery. It is connected to the Excel conference center, about 1/2 hour by tube to many sites in London and an hour taxi ride from Heathrow airport.

My wife and I booked a two night stay in this hotel during UK hottest heat wave hoping to cool off in the hotel pool. To our disappointment, the small pool in this hotel was occupied by a private swimming class that operated all all hours and hotel guesses have to squeeze to one side. first day had 1 student and second day had three student and the pool area where guess can use getting smaller and smaller. Eventually we gave up using the pool all together like other guesses. Better management of hotel facilities are need in this place, we felt we were short changed not able to enjoy the hotel pool the way we should. We tried to reach out to hotel management at reception, but only one duty manager were there and he was overwhelmed with a line up of guesses waiting to be served so I guess the pool is not his priority and left.
