Very uncomfortable beds

An annual trip back to a city I lived in for fourteen years. Hotel so handy with underground lines close and a great range of eating places.

Trevligt litet centralt hotell

Vi pratar Hotell i london. Prisvärt men ligger över tunnelbanan vilket märks när tågen passerar men inte mer än på andra små hotell. Vill ni ha ett tyst rum får man betala för det på ett större hotell

Hotel pulito, personale gentile e disponibile e zona tranquilla e comoda ai mezzi di trasporto.
CATIA, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Location was excellent if you are in town to see the sights. 10 minute walk to Paddington Station. Many restaurants, gift shops and grocery stores within minutes of walking. Amenities are sparse, however, we were not in our room much as we were just in town for a few days to see the sites of London so location was key for us. Place was clean and staff was friendly. Beds were comfortable.

Lovely spot, reasonable price. Staff super friendly and helpful.
Tammy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

We felt thankful to find a 6 bed room (3 bunk beds) for our 2 adult and 4 kid family. The location is fantastic as it’s only an 5 minute walk from Paddington Station, and there’s a park across the street for picnics. Paddington has an express train from LHR, and has tube access to central tourist sites. Staff cleaned our room and brought fresh towels daily. There was a mini fridge, fan and kettle there, too. No potable water or air conditioning, though. Also, there’s no elevator so we had 80 steps up to our room. We didn’t mind, but that’s what to expect.

Bon séjour pour un groupe scolaire, le personnel à la réception etait très professionnel (une personne à l'arrivée dont j'ai oublié le nom et Medhi à notre départ). Je recommande.

Not so good. Door to room did not work, so was given another room on 4th floor (had to carry large luggage up there) with a bank bed with soft mattress, not comfy.

8/10 Very good

A great hotel well located

I had a single room, it was very small with a really narrow single bed but it was comfortable, clean and with coffee/tea facilities and a fridge too. The room was nice on warm on arrival. For the money you cant go wrong really, great location around shops and restaurants and a stroll from the tube. Breakfast was listed as a cooked breakfast but it was basically scrambled egg and then cold meat, cheese etc.. OK though.
Simon, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The location is awesome. Super close from Paddington Station. The staff was very kind and tried to accommodate our needs. Room wasn't too bad also. For this price, it was pretty satisfying. The shower was warm and TV worked well. However, I had to comment that our room was right on top of SUBWAY!!! I was unable to sleep because every 5 minutes, the whole room was rumbling....
