The hotel is not too far from the train station, good transport to the city. While when we were checking at the hotel at 2:55pm (checking time was at 3pm), the guy who worked at the receiption, intentionaly delay our checking knowing that we arrived from internation, leaving us to sit there for more than 20 min (imagine after long flight) while he was disapeared from the desk, we have to recheck with another staff to see what was going on, apperantely he was doing handover his shift... That is not a very professional behavier! Dissappointed!!

Really enjoyed our stay. Parshad was extremely helpful on the front desk and helped arrange a room near the lift for my elderly mother. He is a real asset to the hotel. Dinner was very nice and service excellent.

Good hotel, rooms starting to be a bit dated

The hotel is in a great spot, near Paddington station and by the canal. It was clean and we had good service. The restaurant area was modern, but the rooms are getting a bit dated. It was nice to pop to the pool and sauna but it is small, so difficult to use for much more than a dip once anyone else was there.

Disliked: Amenities
We were in an unrenovated room. Odd to have toilet separate with no basin, but mostly the room was fine; clean and quiet. The biggest issue; the bed and pillows. The mattress was too soft (old), and the pillows really couldn’t be called pillows. They were comprised of lumpy bits covered by a pillowcase; absolutely no support at all.

Favourite Hotel

Great hotel. Stay every time we got to London. Convenient for onward travel & sightseeing but not as noisy with being away from many roads. It's being renovated at the moment so not all rooms done, but still comfortable. The bar/restaurant area is lovely. Breakfast was a full range of hot & cold foods & drinks. Swimming pools, sauna & steam room was great to use after a day of walking around the city. Staff are very friendly, helpful & professional. Always ready to answer any questions.

Excellent location - quiet and safe - with plenty of coffee shops and restaurants close by. I would stay again. Check-in was not until 3pm, but the hotel can store your luggage. Next time I will pack my own towels and buy a nice pillow.
