GUESTS at two East London hotels were evacuated after fires just three days apart.

A supsected arson attack on a ground floor room at the Travelodge on Coriander Avenue forced 300 people into the car park last Tuesday night (March 4). And Custom House Hotel lost the use of all of its standard rooms on Friday (March 7), after a blaze damaged half of the building's roof and top floor.

Around 20 firefighters and four fire engines were called to quell the Travelodge fire after staff raised the alarm at 10.48pm. Crews from Poplar, Silvertown and Bow fire stations attended, and London Ambulance Service treated one person at the scene for slight smoke inhalation.
