As we found during our stay, the Marriott Executive Apartments in London’s Canary Wharf offer a convenient base for exploring the Docklands area.
You’re just a stone’s throw from the Museum of London Docklands and a short walk to the Canary Wharf Underground Station. The spacious apartments come with fully equipped kitchens and offer great views, perfect for longer stays.
While the staff is friendly and the rooms are clean, we noticed a couple of drawbacks. The area can feel a bit sterile, lacking the charm of central London, and the on-site dining options are limited to just two venues.
This hotel is best suited for business travelers or families who need more space and don’t mind being away from the city center.
If you’re looking to be close to the O2 Arena or London City Airport, this could be a good fit. However, if you’re after a more quintessential London experience, you might want to look elsewhere.
