Top hotels in East Ham
Strand Palace Hotel
Small room but clean and very serviceable. Staff very pleasant. Gym a decent size and well equipped. Add in a great location and very much worth it. One small gripe was elevators were a bit slow (many rooms, few elevators) but overall a great stay.

The Tower Hotel, by Thistle
Staff were great, very friendly and accommodating. Unfortunately the ac in our room did not work and it was very hot in the room, woke up in the night and the room was 24c. The hotel seems quite run down and a little freshen up would be great.
