Hotels near Barking, London

We stayed at Ibis Budget Barking on one of the hottest nights of the year. The air-conditioning worked brilliantly, so we had a much better night than friends who stayed at a much more expensive hotel in central London! We were attending an event at The University of East London SportsDock. It was very easy to get to - just a short walk to the bus stop by Tesco, a 19-minute bus journey which took us very close to the venue - so Ibis Budget Barking is ideal for anyone wanting to go to something in East London. The front of house staff were very courteous and helpful. I have rated this 4 rather than 5 as a kettle ought to be a standard offering in all rooms (in Ibis Budget Portsmouth we had a kettle). But, all in all, an excellent budget location.

The best hotel I have lodge so far for now in llford very affordable and very good for the price really enjoyed my stay

The accommodation was reasonable to see but was not a very tasty hostel to stay long. For the money it was really just to do.

Booked this trip for my finances birthday. The hotel is outdated which we were aware of and no issues there but if you’re looking for something modern it’s not the place for you. The lift doors were very sticking and didn’t seem to open properly and had a bad smell to them. Checked in ok, went to our room which had the heating on full blast and the temp was showing at 39c. We tried to open the window but it was held closed by just a screw. The bed was very comfy to sleep on but we only stayed one night so wasn’t too bad. The next morning we were disturbed by housekeeping entering our room at 8am saying hello then quickly exiting and then hoovering the corridors banging the walls and our door. We told reception about this but was greeted by a rude member of staff who pointed to another lady then walked off. The lady behind the desk said she’ll talk to housekeeping again so sounds like this happens a lot. We then decided to go for breakfast to be told it was £15 each! Apparently when you check in you can buy breakfast at a discounted rate of £12.50 but no one told us or offered this at check in. We decided to go elsewhere for breakfast. All in all we had a good trip to London but will not recommend this hotel or ever be returning again. I wish I had spent a bit more and gone to a better hotel.

Loved it! Highly recommend. Super easy to get into town on DLR, and amazing breakfast. Lovely to watch swimmers go past. Staff really lovely and very helpful. Am booking to go again. Rooms not vast, but not too small and absolutely fine (shared a twin room with a pal).

We visited at the end of August 2021 and the experience was not a good one! Confronted with a pleasant young man only to be put in a room for a single person ( we are a couple ) right at the back of the hotel with a long hallway and flights of stairs we had a few pieces of luggage as we were going to a wedding the next day. Not happy with our room but we could not change it as no more rooms were available. We were told perhaps the next day. We were also informed that continental breakfast was available daily but we could see no evidence of this as the restaurant was closed up from the inside ( see pictures) Our room was changed the next day but we had to go a wedding so asked if we could move in later no! Was the blunt answer no consideration shown as they put us in a small room! We had to move immediately or soon as. Also the restaurant still looked like a building site and in the corner was a dusty table with dirty plates, when we complained, as we were informed before we arrived there was continental breakfast someone was called in to clean the table and put bread, milk and a couple of boxes of cereal to appease the situation ( see pic ) it was terrible The rooms are not that great and you can hear everything through the walls. A few days in the restaurant was cleaned up and a full breakfast was being served but that was a little to late as we had only 2 days left of our stay and the previous days we had to buy our own breakfast when this should have been provided as we paid for this!!! Parking is also not so great first come first served and parking in the surrounding streets is awkward my best advice from our experience is to avoid this place and find somewhere else!!! The staff there at that time showed no consideration professionalism or courtesy for our situation and tried to fob us off regarding the breakfast situation and our room.

Handy location for Excel - which is about 10 mins walk away Car park on site - not massive but good number of spaces - the parking payment is per 24 hrs. Make sure you enter the correct car reg etc at reception Good friendly welcome at the desk and a good room in the hotel. No noise from outside but a bit of noise from inside with noisey guests talking in the corridor a few times on saturday night. Only got the room key card to work in 1 of the 2 lifts and gave up in the end and used the stairs - its not clear why you would secure the lifts with key cards but not the stair well ? Good room - air con and a nice big bed and shower. Not much round and about for eating on a saturday night so had a pizza at the hotel bar - it was quite big ordered a 4 cheese pizza but was more like a cheese and tomato - pretty plain and ordinary - not brilliant value for money. Overall I would definately use this hotel again.

It's hard to find this hotel first, No visible sign on display 🙂 No service at all, I booked a double bed room included with breakfast, there was no reception to check 🙂🙂 There was one mobile number on the room door but nobody answered my calls for our breakfast and I couldn't find anybody to handover the room keys for check out , so I had to leave the keys nearby the door itself. Totally disappointed and highly unprofessional, not recommended 👎👎👎

We stayed at the Guesthouse for a week while working at the local ExCel Centre. The guest house is surrounded by many local takeaways and close to free parking out of normal business hours. (7:30-6pm Mon-Fri chargeble free the rest of the time) The accommodation has its own entrance which is accessible by a fob. Through the door leads you to a set of stairs that sits above the pub. Check in for us was speaking to the bar manager. The room was great value. Just be aware that on a Friday and Saturday Night the pubs live music can be heard but i did love the hotel provided ear plugs as standard in the rooms to aid sleep if you don't like live music. We both enjoyed it and would stay again.

Wonderful hotel with excellent location. The room was clean, very comfortable and had great view of the London Stadium. The location was amazing, next to a huge Stratford Shopping Centre and to the subway station with many subway lines. The staff was friendly, professional and very helpful. KUDO to the Concierge Staff, especially NALEEF, DANIEL, AND ONE OTHER GENTLEMAN (sorry! i forgot his name). My wife got pickpocketed in London. The Concierge staff, especially Naleef, went above and beyond their duty to help us to deal with our distress moments. He advised us to report the theft to the London Police, and also the Concierge staff helped us tremendously to deal with our stolen credit cards. We really appreciated what these amazing staff did for us. Thanks so much to Naleef, Daniel and to all the Concierge staff for making us feel so welcome and for all your unforgettable help during our stay. The world needs more of these people like your Concierge staff. Hyatt should be very proud to have these amazing Concierge staff. We certainly will return to this Hyatt hotel in the future and would highly recommend this Hyatt hotel to anyone!
