Because the hotel is near Paddington Station, it's close to everything, with all kinds of stores, pubs, and restaurants nearby, and a short walk to Paddington or Lancaster Gate Underground stations. I found it easy to get wherever I wanted to go. The staff at the hotel were unfailingly polite, friendly, and helpful.
