I am perhaps somewhat biased to review this hotel as it was the hotel my husband and I chose for our wedding reception.
Back in July 2008, we got married and organized our wedding reception in the Four Seasons Canary Wharf ballroom. The wonderful modern design of the hotel, sleek service, professional staff and the great food and wine made this hotel our first choice for our special day. We were not disappointed.
The hotel sits on the Thames very close to the Canary Wharf Pier with regular boats to Greenwich and Central London, Canary Wharf DLR / tube and Limehouse Station. The car park beneath the hotel is secure but abit of a maze to find the pedestrian routes to and from it.
As newlyweds, we were give the huge Suite complete with living room, bedroom, walk-in closet, dining room, kitchen and a bathroom to get lost in. The Bang and Olufsen sound system and choices of music CD’s is a lovely touch. From our windows we could see the Thames and wonderful views as far as St.Pauls and The London Eye. Our room certainly did not disappoint.
The restaurant boosts its fantastic chef. The food is delicious and well presented. Our full English breakfast was a feast in fact we could not finish it. Drinks in the lobby bar are expensive but sit around long enough and you are sure to see a couple of celebrity faces.
It was a wonderful venue to have our wedding and we have no regrets what so ever. A touch more expensive than other hotels in the area but what you get is the most pampering feeling. It’s worth every penny.
We would recommend this hotel for short stays i.e. a weekend to a week. The Canary Wharf area can get somewhat dull and there are livelier areas of London which has a better night / social life. Should you plan your wedding here, of course we would highly recommend this venue.
