Very expensive for what it is
Nice enough place, but a few things to note
- the room is tiny. Yes, it’s London, but it’s very, very small (bathroom is particularly small)
- shower isn’t great (very small; not much pressure)
- bed is like sleeping in a hammock (it sags in the middle)
- no air con
- if you open the window, the DLR trains are very noisy
Good points:
- free (fast) wifi
- the TV works
- fridge / kitchenette in room (altho there’s no cutlery / plates to use)
- check in was quick
- it’s secure

Terrible hotel – avoid
A brand-new swimsuit was stolen from our room after housekeeping, and despite countless follow-ups (even emailing the founder), management completely ignored me. Zero accountability, zero respect for guests – stay anywhere else in London.

Flat review of ARK -
The stuff was very helpful and friendly. However I didn’t know that if I needed anything, I needed to contact the reception. I came late and there was not a mug or spoon to have a cup of coffee. Also not even a small bottle of water. The same for breakfast, i couldn’t have a cup of coffee. I asked the reception and then they told me I needed to ask 😀. Apart from that great views and very clean flat.
