8/10 Very good

Room was tiny but cosy and very clean. Bathroom was GREAT, not a spill on the floor from the shower (anything it can be in 4-star hotels)!
Susan, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful location plenty for shops and restaurants nearby to eat and drink. Safe area tube station nearby
Jonathan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

So close to 2 tube stations for accessing all the attractions. There are lots of shopping options including Sainsburys, Tesco, cafes & bars right on the doorstep.

Great stay ! Id recommend it!
Sinisa, 1-night trip

Nice quiet, central location. Very clean
Helen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was clean, a little bit of dust on the surfaces but hardly. The bed was fine in terms of comfort, the mattress wasn’t great but it was manageable. The bathroom was compact but decent, the shower was good. The room was small but not claustrophobic. The service was friendly and welcoming, and security is good. It’s close to shops and tube stations. The breakfast is excellent. Overall, I’ve rated this very good.

I give 2 stars because the hotel offers fresh water and near the paddington station
IMANE, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Beautiful property in a quiet Neighborhood. Its a five minutes walking distance from restaurants, shops and the train station. The only downfall is our room was on the fifth floor (76 stairs to climb) and there is no elevator.
sabine M, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property was very clean and tidy, the breakfast was delicious and all the staff were very helpful. Plus the area was fantastic, easy access to everything.
Amanda, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Since it was a hotel, I wish someone brought my luggage down for me when I checked out. A bit confusing to check in a different place than you’re staying.
Nav, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location with easy access to public transport friendly vibrant area with very good customer service
Marc, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was our second stay this year. During our 1st stay the weather was cold. This time it was hot! This time our room had a fan in it. We were so thankful.
Michelle, 3-night trip

Small, but well appointed and comfortable room.
brenda, 2-night trip

Perfect stay.
Andzhela, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good stay. Room as described. The shower was very slippery and the shower head has to be held in your hand when showering, so may not be suitable for all.
Juliet, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The reception staff is expected
Irfan, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Small but neat and clean hotel, typical of London. Staff is helpful and friendly, location is close enough to get around. Only complain would be the lack of elevator - my room was located on the 3rd floor and had to climb up 5 flights of stairs - not easy with luggage.
TING HEY, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Small room but great price and great location. Room 16 was extremely hot even with the window open. Needed Aircon
Julie-Anne, 2-night trip

Peter, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Just marking down as there are no fridges in the rooms, at least not in the room I was in, so unable to keep a cold drink. Besides that everything is/was great
Adam, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hot and loud

Don't go there during a heat wave, it's about 10C hotter in the rooms than outside. Also don't forget your earplugs because you will hear doors slamming until late at night and early in the morning.
