My stay at Docklands Lodge was a mixed bag. The location was convenient for reaching the O2, but the overall atmosphere left a lot to be desired. I appreciated the modern bathroom features in my room, yet the shared bathroom setup was somewhat unexpected. I think this hotel serves its purpose for a quick stay, but it's definitely not what I would call a gem.

I had a room with a double bed which was cozy, but not ideal for two people. The highlight was the modern bathroom, which had a nice jacuzzi bath, making the room more comfortable.

The location was quite convenient, just a quick walk to the Blackwall DLR station. I easily reached the O2 in no time using public transport, which was a plus.

The shared bathrooms were clean and private, which surprised me. However, the lack of a lift was an inconvenience as my room was on the third floor.

My stay at Docklands Lodge London was quite a mixed bag. On one hand, I appreciated the modern decor and cleanliness of the room, especially the nice bathroom with a jacuzzi bath. However, the initial impression was quite disappointing with a lackluster reception area and rather unpleasant smells in the stairwell. Overall, it served its purpose for a one-night stay before a concert at the O2. 🎤🛏️

The room I stayed in was clean and had a modern look, with the standout feature being the jacuzzi bath. However, the absence of a lift for the three flights of stairs was inconvenient.

While the staff were friendly, the overall service felt a bit informal, akin to a shop counter experience rather than a hotel. I did appreciate their willingness to help with minor issues.

I recently stayed at Docklands Lodge London, and it was a mixed experience. While I found my room to be clean and enjoyed the modern decor, the overall ambiance felt quite off-putting. The reception area lacked warmth, and the surrounding environment seemed a bit rough. Additionally, the absence of a lift to reach my third-floor room made things a little inconvenient. However, its proximity to public transport and the O2 arena was a significant advantage! 🎶😅

I checked into Docklands Lodge London with mixed feelings. the room was clean, and the bathroom looked new, featuring a nice jacuzzi. However, the overall ambiance felt misleading compared to the online pictures—dull and a bit dingy. It was convenient for my concert at the O2, but I was concerned about the clientele, as I was informed that homeless people stay there.

The absence of a lift made carrying my luggage to the third floor quite a task. Also, the shared bathrooms, while private, were initially off-putting.

I stayed at Docklands Lodge London mainly for a concert at the O2. The location was super convenient, just a quick walk to the train station, then two stops to the tube. However, the hotel didn't quite match the pictures online; it felt dark and a bit run down. The clean bathroom and nice jacuzzi bath were a highlight, but I wouldn't recommend it for anything more than a one-night stay.

The hotel offered some nice shared amenities, and the clean shared bathrooms were a plus. However, I wasn't thrilled about having to share.
