Location superb close to Hyde Park. Lancaster Gate and Paddington. Hotel felt faded but the bed was clean and the bathroom was serviceable. Great price for the central London location - just don’t expect too much from the hotel … it’s a place to sleep and not much else

For a budget this hotel has an amazing location, very short walk from Paddington and Lancaster Gate tube station. Some lovely restaurants in the area and coffee shops. 4 minutes walk from Hyde Park. The room mattress is thin to the point of you think you can feel the bed springs, but not so bad you can’t sleep. The bathroom is best described as compact and Bijou, let’s say totally unsuitable for the average size of our American cousins. But yes I’d stay again as the location is perfect and the price reasonable

The room was small for 2 adults to move around. The shower needs work. You need an advanced degree in engineering to make it work properly. The bed was average. But since we need something quick, this was our best option that was close to Paddington Station. You really need to do your own diligence. You get what you paid for. I wouldn't recommend this to any Juan!! There are plenty of options around this area.
