The hotel was good with decent sized rooms. The location is OK although very convenient for the Swan pub which became our end of day go-to location for a pint (or two), and Lancaster Gate tube stop is a short walk away Check in was bit of an ordeal. A new computer system had just gone live and all the details I had provided on the original reservation had to be re-entered. I know this is not the fault of the front desk staff but they have to deal with annoyed customers (like me). A temporary issue I'm sure, but not a good customer experience. Some things to note from my stay: - some rooms require you to climb stairs to get to them even though you rode the lift/elevator. If you're a handicapped traveler be sure to NOT get one of these rooms. - in my bathroom the shower water fluctuated randomly from scalding hot to freezing cold. I reported this to the front desk and maybe it has been addressed. My travel companion did not have this issue in this room.

Our stay here lasted several days. The location was excellent—centrally located to almost everything we wanted to do and see, with an underground station just a short walk away. The neighborhood felt safe, and the staff were all wonderful and very accommodating. That said, there were some downsides. Our room and bathroom both had visible mold, and the hotel overall had a noticeable mildew smell. The shower water temperature was inconsistent, staying lukewarm at best and often dropping to cold, though the tub shower head did provide hot water. Overall, this hotel works well for a short stay, but for four or more days I would choose somewhere else.

Location was great, close to Underground and Paddington Station, Hyde Park & Kensington just around the corner. Close to shops. Friendly staff and very helpful. Could use an upgrade on the carpet in the room, bar soap and facial tissue would be a bonus. All in all great stay,

I chose this property for location. It did not disappoint. The hotel is clean, quiet and had air conditioning. My only complaint was the room we had was small compared to what I am use to.

The staff could not be more helpful and friendly. Just a short walk from tube stations and bus stop. However, be very careful with water. Being in an old building temp of water changes on its own. That is the only negative thing I can say
