Excelente localização. Próximo a um parque lindo e enorme, vários bares e restaurantes na região. Da B pra fazer muita c
Pros:

Quarto e banheiro confortável e limpo. Copos, xícaras, chá e café e açúcar disponível no quarto. Suporte aquecido no banheiro pra secar toalhas, cortina com black out. Café da manhã razoável(só não tem variedade. Todos os dias é exatamente igual) As funcionárias do café da manhã são muito simpáticas, acolhedoras e atenciosas.

Cons:

A recepção foi bem hostil. O senhor que nos atendeu não chega ser mal educado, mas muito frio e ríspido(dá até medo…kkk), mas nada que desqualifique o hotel.

Perfect hotel at Sussex Gardens
Pros:

The room was clean and plenty of space for one. Bathroom is clean with a perfect shower en good toilet. Excellent storage for clothing and other things. Coffee and thee wlith hot water. A small desk. Wonderful bed.
Breakfast is very good. Lots of choices. No cooking though for like scrambled eggs.
Location is perfect. 5 minutes walk from Paddington and from Hyde Park and underground or busses.

Cons:

Just small detail like no cooking at breakfast and very crowded there after 07.30. So i was there early.

Gutes Hotel in sehr guter Lager
Pros:

Die dichte Lage zum Bahnhof Paddington ist immer wieder ein Grund zu diesem Hotel zurück zu kommen. Das Zimmer ist klein, wie meistens in London, aber für mich alleine völlig ausreichend. Das Bett war sehr bequem. Das Frühstück bietet keine große Auswahl, aber man muss nicht hungrig los.

Cons:

Leider hat der Fahrstuhl nicht funktioniert und mein Zimmer war im vierten Stock. Die letzte Treppe war besonders eng und schief. Mit großem Gepäck ist das nicht so schön.

Enkelt och prisvärt på bra avstånd till kommunikationer och restauranger.
Pros:

Enkelt men prisvärt, med bra läge till kommunikationer och restauranger.

Cons:

Svårt att få värme på rummet, väldigt trångt med sängar och möbler (bord/stol). Om man inte är på plats när frukosten öppnar så är det svårt att få sittplats.

De combinatie van centrale ligging en prijs voor mijn verblijf voor 6 nachten was top!
Pros:

De centrale ligging van het hotel is ideaal en geeft veel opties om met openbaar vervoer op allerlei plekken te komen.
Het hotel heeft een kleine lift om naar bovenverdiepingen te komen met je bagage. De 1-persoons kamer heeft alles wat je nodig hebt tijdens je verblijf: een bed, een klein bureautje met waterkoker, een föhn en een schone badkamer. Bed wordt iedere dag netjes opgemaakt en er zijn ieder dag schone handdoeken.

Cons:

Het ontbijt is wel heel erg basic, vond ik zelf echt tegenvallen met goedkope thee en pruttelkoffie. De ontbijtruimte is klein en je zit erg op elkaar gepakt als het spits is. Ook de tijd van 7.00 tot 9.15 uur vond ik erg krap.

Week end lungo a Londra
Pros:

L'hotel si trova in una zona strategica per sportarsi, la staza pulita e spaziosa.

Cons:

La stanza era al terzo piano, senza ascensore e in un edificio diverso dalla struttura centrale, ergo per la colazione bisognava uscire. Il ragazzo alla reception che ci ha ricevuto è stato MOLTO RUDE, per attirare la mia attenzione schioccava le dita, non faceva alcuno sforzo per farsi capire meglio, nonostante io fossi straniera! Qui lo avrebbero licenziato.
