This is a little gem of a hotel in Paddington - clean and comfy rooms in one of the many older style hotels in this area. My room was on the top floor - quite a climb and the room as small it was perfect for as a solo traveller and worth the price. I will stay here again. ##### Nathan Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sebastian 20 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Very good location.

It is right next to Paddington Station, which made transportation super easy. The only con was having to walk up several flights of stairs to my room, but that is to be expected for an older property! ##### Megan Stayed 5 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karie 18 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I had a lovely stay. The staff was very kind, welcoming and patient and answered any questions I had. Norfolk square park across the street is lovely and I never felt unsafe as a woman traveling alone. Hyde park and paddington station were a short walk away. This hotel is in an old Victorian building and with it come quirks like no elevator and non potable bathroom sink water but they had a water station in the lobby that was free to use 24/7 and a vending machine if you like to purchase snacks along with room service through a 3rd party delivery service. I enjoyed my stay immensely! ##### Karie Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hilton London Wembley](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Wembley.h4921092.Hotel-Information) > > [ARK Canary Wharf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Collective-Canary-Wharf.h36660267.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Hotel Richmond](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Richmond-Harbour-Hotel-Spa.h10269.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Angel Islington](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Angel-Islington.h436270.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel & Conference Centre London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Radisson-Hotel-Conference-Centre-London.h48444523.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn London Heathrow Terminal 2 and 3](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-London-Heathrow-Terminal-2-And-3.h33088275.Hotel-Information) > > [a&o London Docklands Riverside](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Ao-London-Docklands-Riverside.h2456.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express London - Greenwich by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-London-Greenwich.h519817.Hotel-Information) > > [Aerotel London Heathrow Airport Terminal 2-3](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Aerotel-London-Heathrow-T2-T3.h21528024.Hotel-Information) > > [London Marriott Hotel Regents Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-London-Marriott-Hotel-Regents-Park.h4481.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Plaza London Park Royal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Park-Plaza-London-Park-Royal.h15118023.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express London Heathrow T4 by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-London-Heathrow-T4.h22336089.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure London Heathrow Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Mercure-London-Heathrow-Hotel.h17586.Hotel-Information) > > [Sofitel London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Sofitel-London-Heathrow.h1740977.Hotel-Information) > > [The Chelsea Harbour Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Chelsea-Harbour-Hotel.h16413.Hotel-Information) > > [Tribe London Canary Wharf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Tribe-London-Canary-Wharf.h83096424.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stratford, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Stratford-Hotel-London.h31325464.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Kensington](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Kensington.h26612.Hotel-Information) > > [Thistle London Heathrow Terminal 5](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Thistle-London-Heathrow-T5.h882761.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel, London Canary Wharf East](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-New-Providence-Wharf-Hotel.h1658062.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Canary Wharf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Canary-Wharf.h1457899.Hotel-Information) > > [Renaissance London Heathrow Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Renaissance-London-Heathrow-Hotel.h9944.Hotel-Information) > > [The Gantry London, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Curio-Collection-By-Hilton-London.h48879811.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Leonardo-London-Heathrow-Airport.h570358.Hotel-Information) > > [Aloft London Excel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Aloft-London-Excel.h4292527.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental London - The O2 by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-InterContinental-London-The-O2.h11518997.Hotel-Information) > > [MOXY London Stratford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-MOXY-London-Stratford.h19544649.Hotel-Information) > > [The International Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-International-Hotel.h1949.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel London Canary Wharf Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Novotel-London-Canary-Wharf-Hotel.h16181347.Hotel-Information) ---
