Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located, just a 5-minute walk from Paddington station, providing easy access to many areas of London. The rooms were much smaller than advertised, even after prior communication with the hotel. The service was consistently rude and impatient throughout our 6-day stay. The dining experience was rushed and nothing special, with limited options for breakfast.
I had a lovely surprise staying at this hotel. The rooms were like new and easy to reach from Paddington station. However, the service was lacking a friendly approach and interest in addressing noise issues late at night. The location was excellent, close to stations, shops, and attractions. The dining options were decent but could use more variety. Overall, a comfortable stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel is conveniently located near Paddington Station and Hyde Park, making it accessible from anywhere in London. The rooms were small but adequate, although being in the basement was not ideal. The service was friendly and attentive despite some noise disturbances early in the morning. The dining options were below average with limited choices, but the hand-made pasta stood out. Overall, considering the prime location, the hotel offers decent value for money.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel with some great highlights and a few downsides. The rooms were warm and cozy, although the final flight of stairs had a rickety banister. The service was super friendly and helpful, despite the toast not being to my preference. The location was nice and warm, although a bit far from the center. The dining experience was basic but sufficient to start the day. Overall, a good value for the money.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and lovely, offering enough space for a couple of nights. The bathroom was great with hot water and an easy-to-use shower, although it was quite warm and lacked a curtain on the door to outside, which could be a bit uncomfortable. The service was a mixed bag; some staff members were uninterested when I raised noise complaints, but overall, they were lovely, helpful, and nice. The hotel's location was ideal for my needs, being close to Paddington Station and offering easy access to Hyde Park and the Albert Hall. However, the noise from neighboring guests was a bit bothersome. The dining experience was decent, with a limited selection but good quality. The facilities were sufficient for my stay, but nothing extraordinary.
The hotel is in a convenient location near the metro station, making it simple to travel around the city. The rooms, however, were untidy and small, and noise from outside disturbed my sleep. The service was lacking in friendliness and warmth, with some rude interactions. The dining options were basic but okay, and the facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel is ideally located near Paddington Station, with good access to both the underground and walking distance to numerous great areas. The rooms, though a bit smaller than expected being in the basement, were surprisingly spacious and well-equipped. The dining experience could be improved to offer better choices, and the car park, considering the location, was reasonably priced. Friendly and helpful service made up for the minor inconveniences.
The hotel is in a great location, just next to Paddington station and near Hyde Park. The rooms were clean and comfortable, providing a much-needed rest after a day of travel. The service was excellent, with staff going the extra mile and being friendly. However, the breakfast options were limited. The location is fantastic for easy access to transport and sightseeing but being in the basement could be a downside. The facilities were sufficient, but improvements could enhance the overall experience.
The hotel was a bit of a mixed experience, with a good location close to Paddington Station and eateries but lacking charm. The room size was adequate for a family, but being at the top of the building wasn't ideal after a tiring day. Service was inconsistent, with some staff being unhelpful and rushed in clearing plates. The dining options were subpar, with issues of cleanliness and room quality not justifying the cost. However, the convenience of the location and proximity to public transport were positives.
Staying in the basement room had its downsides, being small and at the top of the building with many stairs to climb. However, it served its purpose for a short stay despite the additional fee. The service was a mix, not particularly rude but required multiple calls to address noise issues at night. The location was convenient for exploring central areas and accessing transport links, especially ideal for Paddington station. The dining options were basic, closing earlier than stated, but still meeting our needs.
I stayed at this hotel for a night and found it to be average. The rooms were clean, but a bit cold with no extra blankets provided. The staff, however, were very careful and helpful. I wouldn't recommend staying here for the price they charged me.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel overall. The rooms were a good size and clean, but it was a bit disappointing that there was no air conditioning. The service was excellent, with cheerful and polite staff. The location was fantastic, close to underground stations and within walking distance of many attractions. The dining experience was okay, with a basic selection available, and the facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel is perfectly located near Winter Wonderland, making it ideal for exploring the city conveniently. Though the reception staff were friendly and helpful, the underground cellar location might not appeal to everyone. The complimentary continental dining experience was surprisingly good compared to the simple offerings available at other establishments.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms, although small, were clean and had all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. The service was a bit of a letdown due to the unhelpful receptionist, but overall, the staff were friendly. The location was convenient, close to Paddington Station and major attractions, although the dining options were lacking. The facilities were sufficient for a short stay.
The hotel is in a prime location, just next to Paddington station and near Hyde Park, making it super convenient for exploring the city. The rooms were good, although a bit quirky with an odd set of stairs and a door to a back patio. The service was very friendly and helpful, but the breakfast situation could use some improvement. Overall, a great pick for those looking for a central spot with easy access to public transportation.
