Hotel is lovely. Very easy to move around. The front desk staff were always helpful. Only thing is and I didn’t think to look for is there is no AC and we happened to travel to London on the hottest day/week of June thankfully it cooled down in the evenings.

Perfect location for travelling

Very conveniently located to Paddington Station. Quiet location. Staff very friendly and super helpful. The only addition which would have improved the stay would be tea and coffee making fzcilities in the room. Would definitely stay again and have already recommended to friends.

£10 to turn on the air conditioning and no soap...

£10 to turn on the air conditioning in my room...£10 to turn it on and then I can't change the temperature, turn it off or down from within my room. Now, I understand from an eco perspective that limiting air con use might be a good idea, but it's so hot at the moment I'd have been more than happy with a fan but that wasn't even an option. There was also no hand soap in the bathroom. I don't know about you but when I travel I carry shampoo and wash things but not antibacterial hand wash, so I dread to think how many people before me haven't been able to wash their hands properly in the bathroom. I've stayed in all types of hotels and budget hotels in my years and never have I not had hand soap or a fan. At least let us know before hand so we could come prepared, not travel across the country and then arrive once everything is shut and be unable to get anything. If you are a larger person you won't get in and out of the bathrooms. Also don't expect a duvet as it's a sheet with another sheet on top, I don't know if they change that in the winter but I won't be back to find out. Positives...decent location and the room was quiet as the hotel is set back and some trees muffle sounds from the road, so if that's important to you then don't rule this place out. I was just incredibly frustrated as the hidden costs after such a long journey and then wanting to wash my hands when I got in my room which I don't think is much to ask, maybe I'm wrong though hey

Thoroughly disappointed

It is not a hotel where we were made to feel very welcome. The reception staff made no effort to make sure we had a nice stay. I'm afraid we were asked to pay £10 per day for air-condiitioning on a stifling hot day. This is not mentioned at all in the hotel advertising and is therefore deceptive. What is more, the aircon is centrally controlled and only has one setting, which is 20°C. At this temperature we froze in 45 mins. We asked for the aircon to be turned off, which they kindly did, but it was put back on overnight and when I asked the receptionist to please turn it off, I received a very rude response. Having to pay extra to cool a very hot room down is completely unreasonable. The 'cheaper' hotel I am now staying in in Earl's Court does not demand this outrageous payment.

The rooms were well-maintained and offered good value for money. The hotel’s proximity to various transportation services was also a great advantage. However, the breakfast options were somewhat limited.

exceptional Hotel and Area....

To sum the Hotel up in one word would be exceptional, a very clean and smart hotel especially in the en-suite & wc which is importand to me. Room comfy and very clean but no drink making facilities though free tea & coffee is available near reception to take to your room.I stayed on a saturday eve to sunday with the cost through Hotels.com at £67 with a continental breakfast , good served by excellent staff, what a bargain. just around the corner from the hotel you are spoilt for choice for eating with shops around as well. Paddington Station can be seen from this road so near as well also with a sainsburys and i went out a wrong exit and found The Grand Union Canal right by the station with boat cafe's & a bright blue Paddington Bear. If you go 3 stops to Baker street station right near you will find the Sherlock Holmes museum & shop you don't have to pre book and along the road a bit is the Beatles memorabilia & gift shop, these are both worth a visit. You are also near Madam Tussaud's & Regents park. Their is a cute little park just behind the Hotel with yet another brightly painted Paddington bear , any young children in the family could do a bear search of the area!, lastly i was an older woman on my own and felt very safe in all the area plus when traveling to Wembley. I would highly recommend this hotel and would love to stay again.
