Nice hotel with traditional english breakfast, rooms was nice and cleaned. Service and staff are very kind and trying to help as much as possible. Hotel is close to DLR. To get to hotel from Standstad-> Standstad Express train to Liverpool Street -> underground Elizabeth line to Custom House station -> take DLR to Royal Albert.
Rooms was quite small for 4 people but it was enough just for sleeping. A bit far from center about 45 minutes by public traffic.

Hotel was clean and comfortable. They had even decorated for Halloween and had little packs for the children. The lad on reception even printed activities for my children. The food in the evening and breafast was good too.
No hot chocolate in the rooms. The vendling machine didnt work. The card part kept failing.

The staff, and particularly one tall and slim guy was really nice, he made me feel well welcomed. These things matter a lot today, staff should be always so friendly and welcoming. The distance from the underground is also a plus and the rooms are well done.

Room was very comfortable, clean & providing all that is required for a problem free stay. Breakfast was having all that is a must to start a good day. Location was not good in a sense there wasn't any nice restaurants & shopping places around the hotel & to go to central London by taxi costs too much.

Breakfast was good and location was excellent
Food was a bit pricey, but only found out about the car park fee when I got there , which I didn’t understand because the car park belongs to the hotel I’m staying at so why charge the customer who just payed for his room .. it’s not like I could get a refund right away after iv already payed for the room
