Hilton, Hyatt, IHG, and Marriott hotels near the Elizabeth Line?
With the opening of the new line, it's convenient to take this straight to LHR. I hate having to change lines on the day of departure. Can we compile a list of Hilton, Hyatt, IHG, and Marriott hotels near the Elizabeth Line?

Indeed. The Liz Line stretches from Shenfield in the east to Reading in the west. Perhaps "Liz Line stations within 45 minutes", but then you could also include Underground stations such as Hammersmith, Earl's Court and Gloucester Road where there are plenty of hotels.
The fact is that Heathrow already had good transport links which have only been strengthened by the addition of the Liz Line. It's brought a few more hotels into play, but compared to the number already available it's pretty small fry and most people will either end up at something around the Bath Road or at one of the existing offerings.

What is so terrible about transferring? Most transfers between tube and Elizabeth line in central London are easy, and given the choice of a hotel in Stratford with a direct train to LHR or a lovely hotel in town with a one-transfer journey I know exactly what I would choose.

If you care about the price, you might prefer the Tube vs Elizabeth line. In my example of HP East hotel, you could take the Elizabeth line or Picadilly to District line for half the price. If returning on a morning and not using the Tube any more for that day, you do save ~6gbp taking the tube vs Elizabeth. That said, the newer cars on the Elizabeth line make for a more comfortable ride. There are several other threads on the best way to get into town from LHR.

Also "lovely" hotels in central London are likely to be a lot more expensive.

It was a total nightmare at Hatton Cross. There's no elevator and it was a pain in the bottom having to lift a suitcase through the stairs!

Many brands are represented at or in the vicinity of Custom House as well, including Aloft, Hampton, DoubleTree, Moxy, Crowne Plaza, and HIX. Canary Wharf has a Hilton and a Novotel. There's a Delta vaguely near Abbey Wood.
