Gute Lage und freundliches Personal, aber Verbesserungsbedarf bei Sauberkeit und Technik.
Pros:

Die Zimmer waren wie in den Fotos, der Service war freundlich und hilfsbereit, der Whirlpool war angenehm, 4 Flaschen Wasser gratis war zudem äußerst lobenswert.

Cons:

An 2 von 3 Tagen hatten wir morgens kein warmes Wasser, sodass Duschen nicht möglich war. Zudem war das Zimmer nicht wirklich sauber – an mehreren Stellen lag Staub. Die Wände sind extrem hellhörig; man konnte die Nachbarn deutlich hören, selbst beim Sex. Das Toilettenpapier war sehr dünn (ein- bis maximal zweilagig), und die Toilettenbrille war locker und ist ständig verrutscht. Zudem musste der Föhn am Nachttisch angeschlossen werden da es im Badezimmer keine passende Steckdose gab, somit hatte man auch zum föhnen und stylen keinen Spiegel.

No lo vale
Pros:

El personal es super amable! Lo único que merece la pena. La ubicación está bien. Hay buenas conexiones de bus / metro para toda la ciudad.

Cons:

Dice que es un hotel de 4 estrellas JA. No se dejen engañar. Se supone que el chico de recepción nos hizo un upgrade a una habitación superior. No me quiero imaginar lo que era la standard. Habitaciones muy pequeñas, la nuestra con una ventana que apenas se podía abrir porque daba a una pared (literalmente). Luces que no funcionaban, espejos rotos.
El desayuno? Mejor ni pisarlo. Por 15£ solo pan y cafe, con suerte alguna fruta.

Mejorable
Pros:

La ubicación está muy bien.

Cons:

La habitación era pequeña, desde el primer minuto no hubo posibilidad de ofrecer otra habitación. Se nos dijo que nos ofrecieron la habitación executive, cuando era una habitación en el último piso, con menos entrada de luz. El agua salió fría uno de los días, el wifi se caía a ratos.

Everything was fine but the service details needs improvement.
Cons:

We requested a change of bed sheets twice and it never happened. Please, throwing away some sheets because are not enough clean and buying new ones isn't that expensive. Because it seems like you never change the sheets.

Very nice, safe and convenient stay.
Pros:

Spacious room, facilities were top notch especially the bathroom. The kettle for tea and coffee were a nice touch as well.

Cons:

I think an information pack would have been helpful in the room for directions to the popular sites and transport options.

We enjoyed our stay at the Bryson Hotel. It was conveniently located and the staff was very nice.
Pros:

We loved the location! It was central London and a quick 20 minute walk in any direction. It was also one block from my son's flat making it so convenient for all of us. It was a 7-10 minute walk to the Paddington train station which was a direct line to and from Heathrow Airport.

Cons:

There really wasn't anything we disliked. There was a Sainsbury a block away and with the refrigerator in our room, we were able to keep a few perishables. Nice.
