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.

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

Underwhelming and Unimpressed.

The staff were unhelpful and dismissive. I had a parcel delivered and they couldn’t find it, no sense of urgency. The room was underwhelming and not very clean. Would not recommend.

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.

Very disappointed with this stay. I was expecting a 4 star experience but outside of the reception area & the pool, it felt like a 2 star experience. I paid £144 and on top of that I was asked for a deposit of £100 too on arrival! The standard for 4 and 5 star stays is normally a £50 deposit! All the basic things you would expect a 4 star stay to have on arrival to the room didn’t exist. No slippers or shower cap or robe. But not even basic things like cutlery or mugs. Tea bags sure, but no mugs - very strange that I had to ask for this & also had to ask for plates, pans and even washing up liquid to be brought up to the room. The shower was cramped. No hand soap for washing your hands after using the toilet, only hand lotion & shampoo - very weird. The bed was barely a double as advertised, it was more like a large single and felt cheap for a 4 star place. The room was very hot, with no air con, we opened the window but that idea was quickly abandoned as the loud sound of an train passing by every 5-10 mins until 1:30am made sleep impossible. Only good memory is for two members of staff who were friendly. Will never stay here again.
