Why stay here?
Canary Riverside Plaza offers something slightly different from the classic central London hotel experience.
You still have the city within easy reach, but the riverside setting creates a calmer atmosphere — particularly if you book a room overlooking the Thames.
Rooms start at a generous 37m², which is notable for London, while Deluxe Rooms add river views and suites provide substantially more living space.
Add the nearby health club, riverside dining and Canary Wharf location, and it becomes an appealing choice for travellers who want London convenience without sacrificing space.

Our Honest Take
A Different Side of London
Canary Riverside Plaza has many of the things we look for in a London stay — a strong location, generous rooms, good facilities and somewhere to unwind once the day is done.
The real question for Boutique Seekers, though, is never simply what a hotel offers.
It’s how the stay actually feels.

Things to consider
Canary Wharf is excellent for East London and the City, but it may not be the most convenient base if most of your plans are in the West End.
Book a river-view category if the Thames outlook is important to you; Standard Rooms can instead face Canary Wharf.
The Health Club & Spa is adjacent to the hotel, rather than contained entirely within the main hotel building.
Children have restricted pool hours, so families should check timings before booking.
Parking is available on site, but I’d still check the current rate before arrival.

Would we return
A London Stay We'd Happily Repeat.
Canary Riverside Plaza was one of those hotels that simply worked for us.
We loved the spacious feel, the riverside setting and, above all, the location. Canary Wharf gave us everything we wanted within easy reach while still feeling removed from the constant bustle of central London.
There was something rather lovely about returning to the river at the end of the day, and the hotel gave us that combination of comfort, location and a little luxury that can make a London stay feel like a proper escape rather than simply somewhere to sleep.
For us, the location was perfect, the experience thoroughly enjoyable and we'd have no hesitation in checking in again.
Would we Return?
Absolutely.
