The Spotlight on Aloft London Excel

Modern Docklands Vibes: Aloft London Excel

Modern, stylish, and buzzing with energy, Aloft London Excel sits right in the heart of East London's Docklands. With direct access to the ExCeL Exhibition Centre and easy connections to Canary Wharf, the O2 Arena, and central London, this hotel brings sleek design, spacious rooms, and a lively atmosphere to your concert weekend.
Each room boasts a 42-inch flat-screen TV, free WiFi, a signature comfy bed, and a large rain-style shower. Suites even offer a separate living area for extra space. Plus, it's pet-friendly, so your four-legged concert buddy is welcome too!

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything, and Aloft London Excel delivers. Just a quick ride via the DLR or the Elizabeth Line gets you to the O2 Arena, London City Airport, and other key venues. Prince Regent DLR Station is practically at the doorstep—only 328 feet away! After the show, come back to a lively vibe but quieter rooms thanks to soundproofing. With check-in from 3:00 PM and check-out at a relaxed 12:00 PM, you can sleep in after a late night.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends ready to hit multiple gigs
  • Solo travelers chasing their dream concerts
  • Couples making a music-filled weekend getaway
  • Fans who appreciate a peaceful night's sleep after dancing all night
  • Budget-conscious music fans looking for value without sacrificing style

Food and Drink Options

Need a late-night snack? The 24-hour re:fuel by Aloft has you covered with sweet and savory treats. Craving more? The Docksider restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner featuring seasonal dishes, and if you're feeling lazy, Docksider Delivers brings dinner straight to your room starting from 5:30 PM. Breakfast is available too—perfect for post-party recovery.

Nightlife Options

The hotel's WXYZ bar is a hotspot in itself, offering signature cocktails and live music performances three times a month. If you're looking to extend the night, East London's buzzing nightlife is a quick ride away, with bars, clubs, and lounges aplenty.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel's modern, clean rooms, friendly staff, and easy transport links. The vibe is described as upbeat yet relaxed, and many say it's a great base for attending concerts at the O2 Arena or other nearby venues.

Areas for Improvement

While many praise the location, some mention it's a bit quiet if you're looking for non-stop action right outside the door. Also, being near the Excel Centre means it can get busy during major events.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a stylish, convenient, and comfortable stay with easy access to London's top concert venues, Aloft London Excel hits all the right notes.

Below decent

Liked: The pool was alright just my room was not up to standers glue stucked to the desk , stained on the pillow tried to ring reception but none answer so I just left since none answered and just took the dirty ones and left on floor and for a special occasion I got a room with the view of construction which was very loud so didn’t really rest well during the day after a long coach ride

Liked: We booked the hotel for the second time. The first time we came and combined family vacation with business and stayed at the hotel for 3 days from 4.05 to 7.05 and we really liked it. Our cat Elizabeth especially liked it. We had a room on the fourth floor. The room was very clean. I don't remember the name of the guy who checked us in but he was a very polite and considerate guy. I think he deserves gratitude and a compliment from the manager too.Therefore, on our second trip we decided to stay in the same hotel as the first time too.When we arrived the second time, the same guy checked us into the hotel as the first time. He works till 10 am to 10 pm. We were given a room on the second floor. The room was large and clean but we refused because on the second floor in the corridor, when you walk along the corridor to the room, there was a smell of sewage and the room had a common door for entering a parallel room. We refused because we have a cat and I was afraid for the cat's peace. I didn't want the cat to get stressed. I contacted the reception and they changed our room to the third floor. The room was clean and had a nice view from the windows. Much better then the room on the floor, because the windows there was frosted. So my cat liked to spend her free time sitting by the windows and watching the parking lot, the trains passing by, the people coming and going. She had a good time watching from the window when were at a business meeting.So, the room is nice and clean. The shower is clean and has everything you need: towels, soap, shampoo, toilet paper. In addition, if desired they give you robes and slippers for visiting the pool, sauna and stream room. The room has tea, coffee, sugar, milk and one can of water. It is advisable to put several cans of water, so as not to search all over London for where to buy drinking water.The restaurant workers are very nice. Sorry, we forget names. The girls were from Romania and Philippines is a great job.
Disliked: The sauna didn't work at all and the steam room didn't work well. The water in the pool was cool.They left only one can water 330 ml of water in the room, not taking into account that there two adults in the room who could not drink only one can the water. Why save on water?
