Alex Stepiuk Review of InterContinental London The O2

One of the greates hotels I stayed in (I would say up to same level as 4 seasons). We (30 years old, I'm and my wife) enjoyed almost every piece of it.
From the very first step in you are welcomed as it have to be: appreciation and smile. After a quick check in you are heading to 6 elevators in the corridor that efficiently handle batch of people (we didn't notice any case when more than 2 were occupied... though we didn't check number of guests during our stay :) )
Then you are reaching your room (we had superior double room). Everything is clean and tidy... the room fits it's title!
Furniture is new and modern as well as other room's facilities and equipments (including coffee machine)
TV set provide several channels for free and others can be bought separately. You can even buy some movies including adults'. Though the "on demand" list is pretty short and a bit stale in terms of latest movies.
New bath supplies each and every day (regardless of if you spend previous or not). Taking bath - you can listen to music (chosen at 40+ inch TV in the room), good bathroom fixtures (sink isn't very comfortable but at least it has proper water mixer if you know what I mean :) ). Air extraction system is natural (so smells stay longer than you would like)
We didn't notice any noise from other rooms, so seems good walls. Lights in the room are rather subdued, hence it's tough reading.
Food. Do not order food after 23 into the room! It's aweful. The only thing I'm really dissapointed about :(. I ordered 3 different dishes and neither was even decently tasty.
Meanwhile bars and restaurants are really cool. Food is delicious and quickly prepared.
Near the O2 several nice food restaurants and Tesco market.
Cool feature - you can view your bill online via TV set. Very useful and convenient.
Albeit the aformentioned text contains some improvement worth things, I do appreciate the attitude and dedication of the hotel's staff and owners (I'm sure it's high, considering the quality of stay we had! Thank you for that!).
I definitely would like to stay here more in the future.
