We arrived at The Darlington Hyde Park early in the morning after our flight from Canada. We were able to check in early at a pre-arranged fee. It was worth it just to be able to lay down for a while and to have a shower. The hotel was easy to find and close to Paddington Station. Which is great... more

Stayed at this hotel for 2 nights in July and was very impressed. The whole place was clean, airy and light. The room was a good size for London and the staff were efficient and friendly. The breakfast was also nice and cooked to order. The location is 5 minutes walk from Paddington and 10 minutes from Hyde Park, Marble... more

After reading of the squeaky floor problem I asked for a room on the top floor and was allocated room 404. The room was clean, as was the en-suite area. We over looked the main road which... more

I had stayed at the Darlington six years ago, and was enchanted. It is certianly in an excellent location, the staff was friendly and welcoming, the room clean and lovely. I have long wanted to return as I travel to London quite frequently. Sadly it just hasn't worked out (the place is booked, or it is out of the budget... more
