Odessa Wharf

Average cost per day is not cheap. Not really conveniently located for transportation, especially for the elderly. Need quite a walk to the train stations. Uber river taxies are not cheap either. Steep stairway to 1st floor unit. Housekeeping upon our arrival was not well done up, with dust and bed sheets not well spread. Only plus point - Unit is located along Thames River with pretty good view of river front. Owner was helpful to fix the heaters day after. Of our 5-day stay, we experienced 3 days with only one living room heater. The other 2 were not working.

Upon arrival we were pleasantly amazed how beautiful and charming was this resort. Dolores, the site manager was very easy to communicate with and extremely helpful. We got Oyster cards for the week to get around the city. If you follow the channel towards Surrey Quays shopping center and Canada Water tube station it's extremely easy to navigate the city. We are planning to return!

I stayed at Odessa Wharf with my parents (3 people) and it was a great experience. We got a room with an amazing view of the Thames river. My parents stayed at the main bedroom and I was sleeping in the living room (bed is comfortable.) Kitchen fully equipped. It's a bit far from the center but less pricey and much more spacious than you would find closer to the center. We used the Oyster card for bus (7-5 walk), tube (Canada center). Sometimes we took Uber Boat (for international visitors I recommend buying the tickets with the Uber boat app). There's a pub next to the hotel that we didn't have the chance to visit but heard the food and drinks are good. The hotel manager Dolores is super nice and lovely person. She was very helpful and even helped ordering a taxi from the hotel to the airport. She left us the key under the rag in front of the reception since we arrived late at night. She doesn't work Friday noon to Sunday but she's available on the phone. We didn't need to use the laundry services but Dolores has information on how to do it in the hotel. All in all we were extremely happy. It was a quite neighborhood and every morning we woke up with an incredible view. I even noticed two swans swimming across the river one morning. At night the combination of the the river and the financial district lights reminded me of New York with an English unique touch.
