Stay Smart for IHRE26: Your Guide to Hotels Near ExCeL London
The In-House Recruitment Expo (IHRE26) is returning to ExCeL London on 24 February 2026. As the UK's premier event for talent acquisition professionals, it’s a day packed with high-level networking, seminars, and the latest HR tech innovations.
Why Choose a Hotel Near Paddington for IHRE26?
Searching for Excel hotels often leads to functional, high-traffic chains. However, by staying at Hotel Indigo London Paddington, you gain a sophisticated boutique experience with a surprisingly easy commute.
Thanks to the Elizabeth Line, you can travel from Paddington Station to Custom House (ExCeL) in approximately 20 minutes. This means you can enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of West London—with its iconic parks and premium dining—while still being just a short, direct train ride away from the expo.
