Private Roomsibis London Canning Town is a straightforward, well-maintained 3.5-star hotel right across from Canning Town station (Jubilee line + DLR). Every room has a desk, free WiFi, soundproofing, and a coffee/tea maker. For remote workers who need a clean setup, reliable connectivity, and quick access to the Jubilee line into central London, it delivers without unnecessary extras.
Rooms are compact at 15 sqm but come with a desk, coffee/tea maker, blackout curtains, and good soundproofing — reviewers consistently note it is quiet despite being next to a busy station. Multiple power sockets are available, and WiFi is included free in all rooms. Note: there is no fridge or in-room safe, and the hotel operates via WhatsApp instead of a room phone.
The lobby and ground floor have a relaxed, arty feel with a bar, restaurant (CHILL#08), and café area. Staff are frequently praised as friendly and above and beyond helpful. The hotel draws a mix of business travelers, solo visitors, and groups. It is more social lounge than co-working quiet zone, but rooms themselves are calm and well-insulated.
An on-site restaurant serves breakfast (English and continental buffet, £13.50 unless included) and dinner, with room service also available. Multiple supermarkets are within a few minutes walk, and a McDonald's and Starbucks are right next door. The hotel also provides luggage storage and a shared kitchen.
At significantly below the London hotel average, ibis Canning Town offers clean modern rooms with free WiFi and a desk at a price point that makes longer workation stays financially practical. London City Airport is only 3km away, and Canary Wharf — one of London's main business districts — is directly accessible via the DLR in minutes.
The hotel is directly opposite Canning Town station, which connects to both the Jubilee line and DLR — putting Canary Wharf one stop away and central London within 20–30 minutes. The immediate area has several supermarkets, a pharmacy, cafés, and fast-food options within a few minutes walk. It is not a typical tourist or café-culture neighborhood, but it is very well-connected and functional for daily working life. London City Airport is 3km away.
ibis London Canning Town is one of the most practical budget options for a workation in London. Clean rooms, a proper desk, strong WiFi, soundproofing, and a direct Jubilee line connection make it a reliable choice for remote workers who want to keep costs low without sacrificing the essentials. Best suited for solo workers or those traveling for business who do not need city-center proximity.
Staff were very friendly and helpful, room was generally clean and had all the essentials. Bed was comfortable, wifi connection was strong and stable, desk was good enough for work. There were also plenty of power sockets for chargers and such. Great location, just across the road from the train station and right next to a supermarket. The bar/restaurant within the hotel serves decent pizza too.
Right next to the Canning Town tube- which means you have easy access across London, or shopping at Westfield or Lizzy Line two stops up. Very comfy rooms, beds as well. Quiet modern. Cafe area downstairs very nice too for relaxing or breakfast- and good coffee. Would recommend.
The hotel room in general is very clean and modern. The common corridor is also well maintained. - No room service - No phone in the hotel room ( they operate using Whatsapp) - Good location , near the Tube train station - nearby supermarket and laundry services - food at the hotel is excellent Strongly recommend for no-frills, simple and nice hotel to stay in London city
