I couldn't have asked for a better stay! The hotel's location is fantastic, especially if you're traveling through Heathrow airport, and it's central to Paddington station and underground for easy transport links. The rooms are cozy and well-equipped, making you feel right at home. The breakfast was a delight, and I can't wait to come back for more. The dining experience had its flaws with some old croissants, but the assorted fruits were a nice touch. Overall, it was a great value for money, and I enjoyed my time here.

The hotel is ideally located in a pleasant area, especially for those travelling through Heathrow airport. The rooms, while featuring comfy big beds, lack a shower in the toilette.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The location is excellent, especially if you travel through Heathrow airport, and it's conveniently close to Paddington underground and train stations. The rooms were comfortable, although there was a broken fire alarm. The service was good, but there was a mix-up with my gluten-free request. The dining was average with old croissants heated in the microwave, but the juicy burgers were tasty. Overall, it's a nice spot for a stay, with some minor drawbacks.

The hotel is situated in a pleasant area, close to Paddington tube station and near Kensington Square, a beautiful park.

The hotel is situated in a pleasant area, especially for those traveling through Heathrow airport. The rooms with twin beds met my needs perfectly, but the service, particularly understanding a request for gluten-free options, fell short. The location is convenient with easy access to Paddington rail station and City transport links. The dining experience, inclusive of Thai dishes, was satisfactory, although the loud music was a bit overwhelming. Overall, a decent stay with a few drawbacks.

The hotel is conveniently located near Paddington tube station, making it easy to access central London. The rooms, though on the small side for a family of four, are clean and offer shared bathroom facilities. The service was friendly overall, despite a slight issue with understanding a gluten-free request. The location is pleasant, with the Diana Memorial statue just a short walk away. The dining experience, featuring scrambled eggs at a higher rate and with loud music, may not suit all tastes. Overall, the value for money is reasonable for the amenities provided.
