Enjoyed our stay at the Athena. The location couldn't be better. Our room was simple but had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable, the place was quiet and we slept well, and the bathroom was modern and clean. I appreciated the safe in the room. Breakfast was perfect. Everyone was friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.
Have stay here before and l love the welcome, hotel is spotless, rooms have everything you need and the shower is fab really good strength.

Property is conveniently located for anything you desire to do in and around London. It is three blocks from Paddington station which is a gateway to wherever you want to travel. The staff and a superb and helpful. The neighborhood, around the hotel has everything you need: restaurants, pubs, grocery stores, souvenir shops.
Rooms may be on the small side however you are here to sightsee not move in. I will recommend this hotel to anyone. It is located on a busy street so if you are sensitive to noise while sleeping you have to take this into consideration.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The staff was very nice and friendly, but unfortunately our room was very loud. We could hear street noise and sirens all night, plus we could hear the doors from other rooms slamming. After housekeeping came to service our room, we found a random black sock on my daughter’s bed. The immediate area around the hotel was fine, but a few blocks down seemed sketchy after dark and smelled strongly of marijuana.

Liked: Amenities
The staff are friendly and kind! We were able to leave our luggages after check out time and retrieve them in the afternoon which was really convenient. The room was clean and well appointed. Also clean and white towels were changed daily which was a plus. The only negative is the bed, new mattresses are definitely needed. One more thing: It’s a close walk to the Paddington train station, subway and/or underground.
