- Hotels located close to the Elizabeth Line, this line offers direct access to ExCel and you can pick the station closest to your preferred location
- Search by star rating, 3 star hotels will offer lower rates
- Use the drop down sort filter to show hotels in price order (low to high) and also, discount order, showing those hotels that are offering any special rate
Other sites and booking directly with the hotels may be cheaper - please do shop around.
