Gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Wir würden wieder kommen.
Pros:

Die Lage gleich bei der Paddington Station ist perfekt. Es gibt zahlreiche Restaurants und Cafés in der Umgebung. Die Zimmer waren sehr sauber, das Personal freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es gibt soweit alles was man braucht. Das Frühstück ist sehr einfach aber ok. Der Kaffee war nicht besonders… aber im Großen und Ganzen ein gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.

Cons:

Für die Klimaanlage muss man extra zahlen. Noch dazu 20 Pfund pro Tag!! Das ist wirklich zu viel!

Pros:

The hotel was clean and well presented. The hotel staff were friendly. The breakfast was simple and easy. The hotel was a great location to go get to Hyde park for a concert. It was a ten minute walk from Paddington train station and underground. Air conditioning was available for £10 per day. Reception staff boil the kettle behind a bar area, to allow you to make hot drinks.

Cons:

Nothing unlikeable

PLS FIX THE AC, PLATINGS OF THE BREAKFAST SET UP
Pros:

First the location, the building is clean

Cons:

The room was quite small, stuffy and the Ac didn’t work throughout my stay. Considering how hot the weather was I would have thought that should be a priority on the top of their list to fix. And the food set up, was messy for me hence why I couldn’t eat anything there though paid for. I’d ask for hot water and it came with dirt particles in it. Also I took a second look at the hotel pic I didn’t like what I saw wanted to change buh most places were fully booked and just as I thought, I didn’t like the hotel.

Overall, it was comfortable and worked for me. I believe there should be fans in all the rooms if air conditioning is no
Pros:

Clean and accessible to main train line.

Cons:

It was hot and air conditioning would cost extra. I was given a fan for the second night and that helped.

Pros:

The rooms were really clean, staff were friemdly amd it was a great location. We were extremely pleased with oir room which wad a family room for 4 adults.

Cons:

The breakfast was not great amd is definitely an area thst needs improving.
Tea and coffee facilities would be good in the room as well rather than in the reception area. This however was our only fault with the accomodation.

Pros:

Goede locatie dicht bij Paddington station en Hyde park, propere kamer, kleine maar degelijke badkamer. Elk bed een lampje en stopcontact, goede lichtwerende gordijnen, erg rustig waar wij sliepen (kamer aan de achterkant)

Cons:

- bijbetalen voor de airco (10 pond per nacht…)
- matig ontbijt, te kleine ontbijtzaal waardoor er wildvreemden mee aan je tafel gezet worden. Dat is prima voor een jeugdherberg maar niet in in een hotel; kleine tijdspanne om te ontbijten.

Good home base for our stay in London
Pros:

Reasonably priced, clean hotel near Paddington station. Continental breakfast with good coffee.

Cons:

All rooms to not have air conditioning. The rooms that do have it, have a confusing prizing for air conditioning usage. The receptionist botched the explanation and made it sound like a scam.
I think the problem is mainly figuring out clear pricing model and explaining it to the people who are not native in english language.

Good budget hotel in a quiet but accessible location.
Pros:

The room was clean and well appointed. The location worked well for me and is close to shops and restaurants. There was a good choice of food at breakfast and I particularly appreciated the toast that was provided shortly after I sat down.

Cons:

There was a heating/air conditioning unit in the room which did not appear to be working. It would have made the time spent in the room more pleasant, given the outside temperature.
