HOTEL CONFORT +, TRES BON EMPLACEMENT MAIS UN PEU CHER !
Pros:

Très bon emplacement à Paddington, quartier animé mais hôtel très calme, sans bruit le soir et la nuit.
Lits avec matelas épais, chambre assez petite mais fonctionnelle.
Petit déjeuner décevant, pas "d'English Breakfast", toasts, jambon, fromage, oeufs durs, jus de fruit et salade de fruits industriels... juste un bon "Cottage Cheese"

Cons:

Le petit déjeuner très basique

Ļoti labi
Pros:

Ļoti laba atrašanās vieta, Londonas centrālo daļu iespējams izstaigāt ar kājām, Ja ir vēlēšanās apskatīt citus Londonas rajonus, to bez liekām problēmām ir iespējams paveikt izmantojot sabiedrisko transportu, jo pāris minūšu gājienā ir dzelzceļa stacija, metro un autobusu pieturas. Viesnīcas personāls laipns un atsaucīgs. Viesnīcas numuriņš bija pieteikami komfortabls.

Cons:

Kopumā brokastis bija labas, tikai man būtu ieteikums brokastīs iekļaut arī dārzeņus, salātus un augļus.

London Stay
Pros:

Great location, clise to tube station, good selection of eateries within a few streets. Safe and quiet. Very clean, comfortable bed. Staff were pleasant, they kindly put a room label on and stored something in the fridge in the fridge (not in room). Coffee and tea available from communal reception area.

Cons:

Breakfast selection was limited, and the quality of coffee and tea was not good.
We shared a twin room as friends. Our towels were mixed up, but they did not change them. Therefore, we were unsure whose was whose, we spoke with staff, replaced after second request.

Pros:

Gute Anbindung an öffentliche Verkehrsmittel. Viele Restaurants in der Nähe.

Cons:

Bettlaken hatte am Anreisetag Flecken. Auf den Wunsch eine neues Laken zu bekommen hat der Mitarbeiter an der Rezeption sehr unhöflich reagiert. Hat sich die Flecken angeschaut und wortlos unser Zimmer verlassen, um wenig später ebenfalls wortlos ein neues Laken zu bringen, das wir dann selbst aufs Bett machen durften. Anschließend entdeckten wir im Badezimmer einen Halter für Zahnbürsten in dem sich noch ein benutztes Zahnzwischenraumbürstchen und Zahnpastareste befanden. Dies haben wir dann ebenfalls an der Rezeption gemeldet. Der Mitarbeiter hat es ausgespült und uns nass in die Hände gedrückt. Nach dem Trocknen waren die Zahnpastareste wieder sichtbar. Eine gute Fehlerkultur sieht anders aus.

Der Frühstücksraum besteht aus 7 Tischen mit je 4 Plätzen. Einer dieser Tische wird konsequent vom Personal genutzt, obwohl er für Gäste eingedeckt ist. Als Gast darf man sich nicht aussuchen, an welchem Tisch man sitzt, da es angeblich nicht genug Platz für alle Gäste gibt. Vielleicht sollte man während der Frühstückszeit von 7.30uhr bis 9Uhr den Gästen alle 7 Tische zur Verfügung stellen.

Londra in compagnia
Pros:

Posizione assolutamente strategica per visitare Londra, a pochi minuti a piedi da diverse linee della metro e dalla stazione ferroviaria di Paddington. La zona in cui si trova l'hotel è molto bella e piena di ristoranti, bar e pub.

Cons:

Suggerisco di migliorare alcuni servizi come l'orario della colazione che potrebbe essere prolungato fino alle 9:30/10:00; segnalare in descrizione che l'aria condizionata va pagata a parte; installare un impianto di aerazione nel bagno. Inoltre, i modi e l'accoglienza del personale non sono tutti uguali. Molto cortese il personale addetto alla colazione, molto meno quello alla reception.

Pros:

Staffs are so kind and room is so clean

Cons:

You are not free to choose where to sit at breakfast. Even when the restaurant is mostly empty and there are some vacant tables, you are told off if you try to sit at one of them.

Trevligt och mysigt i London men hotell inte speciellt bra.
Pros:

Det var väldigt tyst och lugnt. Sov med öppet fönster och hörde inga störande ljud.

Cons:

Litet, trångt och varmt rum. Fick betala 200kr extra för Continental frukost per person och sedan var Continental det enda alternativet som serverades för alla. Frukosten var inte speciellt bra. Kaffet ok. Rummet var inte värt priset.

enough for a night or two.
Pros:

breakfast was better than most bed and breakfast. boiled eggs, some cornflakes, bread, coffee, juice. hotel was very central to restaurants, and a big station.

Cons:

room smells like old houses which usually our grandparents has. bed was very tough, couldnt sleep well. couldnt stand the bedspread's smell so i put that away. it s enough for a night or two but i wouldnt prefer again.
