Crowne Plaza London Docklands

Forget the pricetag and you'll like your stay much

Prós: Great location if you are working at the convention center. The Lebanese restaurant across from the hotel is excellent.

Contras: The biggest problem with this place is actually the price. For this amount a lot is expected, and Crowne Plaza comes up short. Rooms not being ready at check-in, truly awful continental breakfast, and cramped rooms aren't a problem if you are paying less. On my next stay I will see if any of the other hotels on the block are better, but this price might just be a function of a location that's only a few minutes walk to the convention center.
