Pros:

Sehr freundliches Personal, sehr sauber, das Zimmer roch angenehm und frisch. Wir hatten sogar eine Badewanne. Unser Zimmer war recht gross, wir hatten genug Platz für all unsere Sachen. Das Hotel ist sehr gut gelegen, zu Fuss kann man problemlos zur Portobello Road. Tube Stationen sind auch in der Nähe. Zur Paddington Station sind es ca. 25 Min Fußweg

Cons:

etwas hellhörig

Pros:

Das Hotel ist super zentral gelegen und durchweg nettes Personal

Cons:

Die Zimmer sind sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Das Frühstück sehr geringe Auswahl. Als wir dort waren waren in London um die 30 Grad, das Zimmer war super heiß, es gibt keine Klima und durchs Fenster kam natürlich auch eher wenig kühlere Luft rein.

Weekend londinese
Pros:

Posizione strategica, quartiere bello e tranquillissimo. Vicino alla stazione metro Notting Hill Gate.
Stanza spaziosa, colazione intercontinentale basica ma buona. Personale gentilissimo e disponibile.

Cons:

Non c'è l'aria condizionata e di notte abbiamo patito un sacco il caldo...
Il divano letto è davvero scomodissimo!

Pros:

För att vara ett rätt enkelt hotell utan massa faciliteter var frukosten riktigt bra. Inte full english men både kokta ägg, olika pålägg, frukt o grönt o yoghurt. Allt var fräscht. Ibland kan en frukost på ett Londonhotell vara te, rostat bröd o marmelad, endast.

Cons:

Våra rum låg på 3e våningen utan hiss. När vi var där var det värmebölja och då kändes 3 trappor i hettan som väldigt mycket efter en heldag ute i värmen med trötta fötter och ben.
Vi hade 2 dubbelrum och de var väldigt olika i storlek.
