Very cramped room - even for London. The bed was very uncomfortable and our backs hurt for hours the next day. We also changed the nights of the stay from M-Tu to a Wed-Th weeks ahead of time, which they eventually allowed — but charged an unreasonably large rate in our opinion.

Great location! Very convenient being so close to Paddington Station. We arrived very early and they stored our luggage. The family room was perfect for the five of us.

We needed a hotel to stay just one night before flying out of Heathrow. This place is clean, simple, convenient, and comfortable. Beds were super comfortable and the heated floor in the bathroom was nice. The room is small and as basic as you can get, but a great value for the small amount of time we’d be there. Location is so convenient with its proximity to paddington station. Would recommend to people looking for just a bed and a shower and planning to spend most time out exploring London.

Bon séjour

Sejour de 3 nuits. Chambre (n°4) au calme. Lit un peu trop mou pour nous. Le chauffage ne fonctionnait pas mais l'hôtesse d'accueil a proposé un chauffage d'appoint en attendant le technicien le lendemain matin. La douche était brûlante mais l'hôtesse est à nouveau intervenue efficacement. Propreté très bien. Accueil très sympa. Petit-déjeuner correct. En résumé, bon hôtel bien placé avec services tout à fait satisfaisant.

Close to Paddington Station

Nice entrance and lobby - and friendly staff for checkin. I had booked a 2 night stay - and when checking in - informed me that i had to stay in two different rooms - one for each night (i had a number of bags, so unpacking and packing was not convenient; and the rooms were on different floors with no elevator close by). They DID offer to have their staff move my bags into the new room which went well. The rooms are very small, even by London standards - but they were both clean and well maintained. I would stay here again given the front staff support.
