My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. While the room decor needed attention and the noise from the Underground trains was bothersome, the newly done-up rooms were fresh. The location near Paddington station was excellent for transport links, but the exaggerations about the ground floor tremors were off-putting.

The hotel is in a convenient location, very close to Paddington Station, making it easy to get around. The rooms, although small, are well-equipped with towels, tea/coffee facilities, an iron, and a hairdryer. However, the room I stayed in was too small for two adults and had a narrow staircase leading to it. The service provided by the staff was quick and efficient, except for some who seemed ill-suited for their job roles. The dining options were satisfactory for a tired traveler but could be improved for taste.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, just a short walk from Paddington station in a quiet street, allowing easy access to explore the city. However, the room, caused by the London Underground trains passing below, was not as depicted in the pictures and quite depressing. The service was accommodating and helpful, especially when assisting with luggage and providing a fan to cool down the room. The dining options were more than expected but limited in variety and timing. Overall, a mixed experience with great convenience but room for improvement.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The room was quite small with no air conditioning, and it felt a bit cramped for four people. However, it was conveniently located near Paddington Station and provided easy access to various attractions. The dining options were average, and the breakfast could be improved.

The facilities were decent with a highlight on the helpful service for carrying bags up and down the stairs.

The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with a charming English style balcony, though they are on the smaller side and located at the bottom of steep stairs.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were charming, adorned with beautiful stucco-embossed lilies on the ceiling.

The hotel offers a comfortable stay near Paddington station with excellent beds, a tiny but clean and renovated bathroom, and relatively quiet rooms despite being close to transportation hubs. Be prepared for stairs. The service is attentive and helpful with quick assistance and luggage help. The location is excellent, right next to various transport options, although noise from passing trains can be noticeable. The dining experience meets expectations with an English breakfast but feels rushed due to limited dining room space.
