The hotel rooms were bigger than advertised and as comfortable and quiet as shown in their pictures, though they needed refurbishing. The service was very helpful and friendly, making the stay enjoyable. The location was conveniently close to Paddington Station and Kensington Gardens, but there were disturbances during the night. The dining options were basic, and there were concerns about the key system. The facilities were clean and beautifully designed.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but they were also outdated and had visible damage throughout. The staff was very friendly and helpful, going above and beyond, but the rooms were quite small for the furniture, making it challenging to move around easily. The location was great, with easy access to public transportation and attractions, but it might be tight for those not very slim. The dining options were decent but could use some improvement.

The hotel's rooms were decorated in a 'boutique hotel' style but have become very run down and not very clean. However, they were better than some single rooms I've had. The location was excellent, close to many attractions and public transport links. The staff were helpful and accommodating, but the dining experience was very basic with jam on toast.

The hotel is in a prime location, close to Paddington Station and Kensington Gardens, making it very convenient. The rooms, although quite noisy at times, were clean and had the essentials, but some maintenance is needed. The service was exceptional with helpful staff. The dining experience, while limited, offered a typical European breakfast. The facilities were sufficient for a short stay.

The dining options were basic but understandable for the value price. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the area attractions, making my stay enjoyable overall.

This hotel is a great find! The rooms are beautifully renovated with a terrific shower, though a bit small and can get noisy due to the main street below. They are clean and come with all the necessary amenities. The service here is top-notch, with a warm and welcoming staff who cater to every need, from luggage handling to breakfast requests. The location couldn't be better, just minutes away from Paddington and Lancaster Gate, offering easy access to Hyde Park, Notting Hill, and more. The dining experience is decent, offering a basic selection of breakfast items. Overall, this hotel is a gem with fantastic facilities and excellent value for money.
