Has anyone stayed at the raddison hotel canary wharf or the hilton canary wharf london?

Question

i'm taking hubbie down to london for his birthday and we're going to the o2 for the exhibition. i'm torn between 2 hotels - the raddison canary wharf and the hilton. the hilton seems nearer the amenities but the radisson offers what looks like a nicer room for the same price. we want a nice room but the main priority is to be close to the shops at canary wharf but easy taxi ride to the o2. suggestions please ! thanks

Answer 1

Both are nice hotels. The Hilton is in a better location, within walking distance to shops.   The Raddison is a bit out the way and a longer walk or 2 stops on the DLR to Canary Wharf.  You must make sure The Hilton is in Marsh Wall E14 not in South London (across the river) - as that is sometimes listed as Canary  Wharf and it's not.  Although if you did stay there you could get the ferry across.  Personally I would go with The Hilton, and walk to Canary Wharf Pier and get a boat to the 02 - much nicer than a taxi.
