There was only one friendly face at lobby desk. Housekeeping staff were nice. Bed and pillows were terribly hard. Linens were very rough. No shampoo or wash towels.

Basement room with a loud boiler nearby enough to disturb, which along with the regular underground trains prevented meaningful sleep.

Close to Paddington, shops and restaurants. Clean enough - fresh towels. Easy check-in. A bit noisy with doors banging and room had a smell of smoke.

Checked in at 1.30, very quick and friendly process, nice big, clean room with 4 beds, good shower etc, we all slept perfectly, no noise and was the perfect temperature (we came 20th Dec) . Lovely breakfast included in price, we had scrambled eggs on toast and some fruit. Location was about 2 / 3 mins walk from paddington station incredibly easy to find! The hotel is a bit tired , but for the price we paid compared to other hotels, it was excellent, no problems at all. Thank you :)

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The hotel was pretty shabby with carpets in need of replacement on the stairs. My room was in the basement and was therefore too close to the underground. Extremely noisy and the room shook every time a train went under. I asked for a transfer but there were no other rooms. I won't book here again in case a basement room is allocated.
