The room is clean but needs a table or shelf to organize personal stuff. The location is very convenient to public transportation. The staff are fantastic. I will recommend & come back again.

Weekend rugby trip

Down in London for a rugby weekend and as always stayed in Paddington. It's pretty central and within walking distance of all the sights which was really handy as there was a tube strike throughout our visit. Sussex Gardens is just off the main street and set back from the road by gardens so nice and quiet at night. The hotel was nice and our room was spacious for a twin with comfortable beds and a small ensuite shower and toilet. Furnishings and layout are not modern like the big chain hotels but it is clean and tidy, with daily housekeeping and fresh towels etc and the staff on reception and in the breakfast room were pleasant and friendly. The only downside is there is no lift so it's not suitable if stairs are an issue as the rooms are over 5 floors. We've stayed at a few hotels on this road and they are all very similar in price and facilities and don't disappoint.

Great walking distance from Paddington station. Many stores and restaurants nearby. The only thing that the bathrooms were too small. But for one day stay, it was good.

Great location, very average hotel. Room was a good size but bathroom was tiny, could hardly use the toilet! Furniture dated and room very basic. Cooked breakfast was fairly poor quality, although they offered fruit and juice. Overall feels like a hostel. Great location near Paddington and Hyde Park.

The location was very convenient and the room and stair way areas were all very clean. We hadn't realised we would be on the 4th floor and one of us was nearly 80! Breakfast was passable, more options for cereals would be appreciated, though there was fresh fruit. For London, good value accommodation

Ideal no frills stay

Ideal for a last minute booking. Great location. Quietish (inside the hotel was quiet), people walking by not so much so). I did manage to get a good nights sleep though. Breakfast as you’d like, no waste as they cook it to your preference and what you’d would like. Welcomed on the way in and received a goodbye on departure.
