“You Get What You Pay For.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012

I used airline miles for my stay. Had I actually spent money, I'd probably have some different things to say. The place was very clean, I will say that. The public areas and my room were spotless. It could've used some fresh paint here and there. I stayed in a standard single. It was small, certainly by American standards, but I've actually had smaller rooms in Italy. The location was fantastic - 2 minute walk to Paddington. I picked this hotel because of the location first and foremost, and secondly it didn't eat up all my air miles. Front desk staff were perfunctory. They weren't rude. They just weren't overtly friendly. Would I stay here again? No. Would I recommend anyone to stay here? No.

“Great location!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2012

person found this review helpful

Excellent location but very poor standard indeed. Room was very uninviting and looked like it had been furnished from a jumble sale. Dimly lit and cold. You are unable to turn the heating on or off and the room is very cold. Bathroom was ok. Great for Paddington station and lots of restaurants and cafes nearby. Breakfast was provided but cheap sausages and slow service.
Wouldn't stay here again much nicer hotels very close by.

“A good Hotel for a family”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012

Whilst this is not the usual Hotel for us and it is on the basic side, the fact that we could have a four bedded room for the night made all the difference. A problem is that if one is early one has to leave ones luggage in the entrance at one's own risk. There was no choice at breakfast except Continental or English, which consisted of one egg, a sausage, a piece of bacon and oh horror, baked beans. They did bring one without beaked beans when requested.

The hotel is located in Paddington, and is 3 min away from Paddington station, so location is perfect. The reception is friendly, but the hotel niet some updating, like dripping taps,no airconditioner and the rooms are average, I have mentioned that there is a leak n the bathroom and nothing has been done about in the four days we stayed there, the breakfast is very plane and measured,again the staff is very helpfull.Otherwise the location is great, but the hotel is weathered.

Room Tip: We had the topflor room but was very hot during the night,and that has been with 19 degrees during t...

“Basic”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 October 2011

people found this review helpful

Everything but the room was pleasant.. staff, exterior, lobby etc.. but the room was a disappointment, looking as though a few second-hand pieces of furniture were scattered in the room. The rooms felt like an afterthought. It is centrally-located, but we stayed down the street another night for cheaper at a much nicer hotel. I wouldn't recommend it.
