Canary Riverside Plaza Hotel

Staying at Canary Riverside Plaza Hotel in London was an absolute highlight of my trip. Located just between the Canary Wharf and Westferry stations on the DLR line, it’s literally steps from the river—every morning and evening brought stunning views, especially on sunny days. Even though the hotel was built before 2000, everything is impeccably maintained. The rooms feel spacious and well-kept, far exceeding many recently renovated four-star properties I’ve stayed at. The bathroom is particularly impressive—featuring both a tub and shower, with a smart half-dry/wet separation. There’s even a wooden bench inside, which is rare but incredibly practical. The bed linens were soft and comfortable, making for a peaceful, quiet sleep. Service was outstanding: just request bottled water or tissues, and they arrived within minutes. Beyond daily cleaning, housekeeping also emptied trash bins and made the bed each day. Staff at the front desk greeted guests with genuine warmth, always opening doors as you entered or left. One housekeeper even proactively told me to call if I needed anything—such thoughtful hospitality. Honestly, this place easily earns five stars. It’s not just about location or views—it’s the attention to detail, comfort, and service that truly makes it stand out.

InterContinental London - the O2

Staying with our kids at the InterContinental London - the O2 was an absolute delight. We booked a one-bedroom suite, and the sea view from the window was breathtaking—our little ones were thrilled every time they opened the curtains. The breakfast spread was fantastic, with plenty of kid-friendly options like fresh fruit, pastries, and pancakes that kept them smiling all morning. The pool area was perfect for families—shallow water zones made it safe and fun for the children to splash around while we relaxed nearby. Being right next to the O2 Arena is such a plus, making it super convenient for events or concerts. We’ll definitely be returning for future visits and highly recommend this hotel to other families looking for comfort, great views, and a welcoming atmosphere.
