We had a really wonderful stay at Protea House. Decor is beautiful and functionality of the space is top notch. Wapping is so close to everything while magically feeling like it’s in the countryside. We slept with windows open every night!
It’s only a quick tube ride to all the sites and only a few stops on the DLR to ExCel conference center.
We recommend a meal at The Prospect if Whitby, a stroll down Spirit Quay which offers amazing views of the Shard, and if you have children, a walk past Shadwell Basin to the playground at King Edward Memorial Park.
The only things these American visitors missed were a laundry dryer and a drip coffee maker.
This was an amazing home base for our London vacation. We recommend it to anyone who wants a place to spread out a bit while only being just outside the hustle bustle.
