Beautiful room, great size, excellent unobtrusive service. And one of the best locations in London. Tucked away but close to great neighborhoods and attractions. Perfect for a weekend break. ##### Liz H. ### 6/10 Okay #### A 4 Dec 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### A little bit tired This hotel seems to have faded a bit. Noisy fan, aircon not working and room too hot. Baths that dont empty. Just maintenance and care. Its a 10 minute walk from Paddington station. its is a little too far out of the west end. Overall nice hotel, but there is lots of 5 star competition out there ##### A ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tracie, Essex, UK 28 Nov 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great contemporary 5\* hotel near paddington This is the 1st time at this hotel and had a great stay we didn't spend much time here as we were out till late and checked out early our room was lovely but very small our friends also stayed and paid the same rate but had a much nicer bigger room . So if we stayed again would check this out 1st . ##### Tracie ### 8/10 Good #### karen, stratford on avon 20 Aug 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### mother and daughter weekend Fabulous staff, but need tea making facilities in room. ##### karen ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 31 May 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### 綺麗なB&B パディントン駅からも近く徒歩１０分以内なので、空港へのアクセスも良い。 またホテルの部屋も綺麗だが、部屋が小さいかも。 ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Margaret, Perth Western Australia 30 May 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 5 star luxury This small boutique hotel can truly claim to be 5 star We had a room overlooking the Zen garden which was wonderfull A very classy hotel in a very classy area at a most reasonable cost ##### Margaret ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 23 May 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### the hempel 508 im 5\. stock ist die wahrscheinlichkeit groß, ein zimmer mit halb zugemauertem fenster zu bekommen, was für den preis unangemessen ist. auch bei geschlossenem fenster ist die klimaanlage (?) auf dem dach deutlich zu hören; die türen halten nicht viel von den geräuschen auf dem gang ab. knarrende dielen im zimmer findet der eine oder andere ja vielleicht sogar charmant. die innenausstattung in schönem, klaren design - allerdings z.t. so schön, dass sich simple funktionen wie an/aus nur nach einigem rumprobieren oder gar nicht erschließen. alles in allem: stylish, für london vergleichsweise große zimmer in schöner und praktischer lage nähe hyde park und u-bahn. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Anthony, London, England 17 Feb 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Stylish, romantic, comfortable, aging a bit Overall very pleasant, rooms still have a clean, stylish modern feel and decor still feels original yet very comfortable. Made for a delightful romantic getaway. The comp breakfast was just right. I didn't mind the slight war & tear that is starting to show, even found it a touch charming. My partner didn't like that aspect as much. The gardens facing the hotel are a wonderful treat for a London hotel. I rather loved our night there. ##### Anthony ### 8/10 Good #### The OcazTravlar, Wales 13 Feb 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The Original London Boutique Hotel We had a room 204 over looking the Zen Garden. The room itself was very nice and the four floor to ceiling windows gave great light and wonderful views of the garden. However the bathroom tiles could have done with a polish as they had paint on them (Supposed to be 5 star remember - hense fussiness). Breakfast in bed was very nice. Hotel lobby and bar were very nice and the staff were polite and helpful. All in all a plesant stay but will try eleswhere next time we're in London. ##### The OcazTravlar ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 16 Jan 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Very disappointing Parking unavailable. Bar and restaurant lack atmosphere. Room basic. Only Plus is that staff were generally helpful and friendly ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 15 Jan 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Unique hotel Chic, modern hotel. Ate at the hotel restaurant (No. 53, I think is the name) twice as food was absolutely delicious (beautifully presented as well). Staff very helpful and friendly. Convenient location just few blocks from Hyde Park. Would definitely stay there again. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 7 Jan 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The Hempel Hotel Super Hotel Super accueil Le quartier est ni trop calme ni trop agité (Paddington) Le personel est au petit soin Nous étions dans un appartement qui était pas mal du tout, Il était propre. Petit point négatif il y faisait tout de même un peu froid du fait d'une isolation pas totalement optimisée. Néanmoins vous adorerez cet endroit pour son charme, calme et sa gare qui est seulement à 18min de heathrow airport pour 18pounds !! ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martin, Lyon 17 Nov 2010 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hempel Hotel, au coeur de Notting Hill hotel de tres grande qualité et tres bien situé, à proximité de la central line (Marble Arch, Oxford, etc.). a quelques minutes à pied de Hide Park. beaucoup de restaurants dans le quartier de l'hotel ##### Martin ### 10/10 Excellent #### Massimiliano, Bologna, Italia 11 Nov 2010 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### THE HEMPEL HOTEL London Livello di confort dell'hotel assolutamente soddisfacente, camere (stranamente ampie) e pulite, confortevoli, atmosfera rilassante degli spazi comuni, soggiornandovi nel week end ho trovato un rapporto qualità/prezzo davvero interessante ##### Massimiliano ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simone, NY, NY 15 Oct 2010 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful modern hotel! We LOVED this hotel. We stayed in two different rooms, as we went out of town during our stay. Both rooms were great - very clean, excellent quality linens, beautiful decor, good natural light. The lobby was beautiful and soothing. The halls were beautifully designed and maintained. Service at the desk, and from cleaning staff was superlative. I thought the quality of the in-hotel downstairs bar food was not very good. But overall, we were extremely happy there. We would definitely go back. Because they have free, building-wide internet, unless you have your laptop, there's no computer to use in the hotel. They will print stuff out for you if you need. But i didn't have my laptop with me, so that was disappointing. Still, i got some time to rest from email!! ##### Simone ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 9 Oct 2010 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Still good but needs attention to detail I like this hotel having stayed there before-however-on this visit it was clear the rooms are becoming tired and need better maintenance. The tap on my basin had clearly been dripping for hours and the basin was half full as it continued its drip drip drip throughout my stay. The shower suffered similar issues in that although powerful the range of the flow was so broad it resulted in weak pressure on the one area you stand under whilst soaking the bathroom. The bath/shower was not easy to get into-it was very high sided and I feel even as a 30's fit person I really had to concentrate not to fall over getting in and out. Also found the bath to be somewhat dirty & filled with someone else's hair. The bed was very comfortable but again I wouldnt want to be any less mobile as it was flush to the wall not allowing you to do anything but climb on the end of the bed and then up towards the pillow. Too trendy for me i'm afraid-i like to be able to get in and out of the wrong side of my bed! ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Tom, Venezia 6 Oct 2010 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### The Hempel Hotel London Great location and even not far from subway(Paddington), lot's of nice restaurants almost nearby. The park in front is dream and served. Attention: the kisch-chair in the room is heavy as a tank! Relation price/quality becomes to be discussed when you consider a price of this level and the breakfast is not included !!!!! Whet would it cost to call it "italian breakfast" included (1 Capuccino+ 1 Brioche) ????? It's surely a way of chasing the clients in places nearby. Not for the money, for the pricipal ! ##### Tom ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rune, Sætre 24 Aug 2010 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent The stay was perfect and the hotel was really nice and the staff was helpfull and friendly. Location was just as I expected it to be; close to the underground and Oxford Street and Hyde Park. Room was clean and big. ##### Rune ### 8/10 Good #### Nigel, Washington DC 2 Aug 2010 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great hotel. But the guest in the room above ours overran her bathtub, and we had water leaking through our bathroom ceiling all night. Eventually fixed, but it made things most unpleasant every time we used our bathroom. ##### Nigel ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 12 Apr 2010 Disliked: Room comfort #### Hotel The Hempel- Londra Il problema dell'hotel è che per aver pagato una camera superior sono stata 4 giorni in una camera piccola con vista muro. Questo è inaccettabile ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Frederic, Maisons Laffitte, France 12 Oct 2009 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Plutôt pas mal pour un hôtel londonien Les points forts: chambres douillettes, atmosphère agréable, dans un style plus hollandais ou scandinave (parquets en bois blond, murs blancs) que britannique (pas de moquettes ultra épaisses, de rideaux poussiéreux ni de portes coupe-feu à tous les paliers...). Petit déjeuner buffet somptueux (mais horriblement cher). Literie excellente. Les points faibles: mauvaise qualité de la plomberie (pas de siphon donc mauvaise évacuation d'eau); certains meubles commencent à mal viellir faute d'entretien... Mauvais rapport quelité prix en général (comme partout à Londres cela dit...) A recommander tout de même! ##### Frederic ### 8/10 Good #### Virginia 8 Jul 2009 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Good Experience Overall a very good stay. I had booked for twin beds, on arrival there was one king. Staff responded in minutes and remade the room. It should be noted that there was only a hand held shower in the tub - that was awkward; in the future I will ask about showers! Easy walk to the underground and Paddington Station. ##### Virginia ### 4/10 Poor #### Jim 1 Jul 2009 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### VERY Small The hotel lobby is cool and has a "hip" feel, but the room is totally unacceptable, small, low ceiling in the shower and I am over 6 feet tall and virtually NO closet space. Nice breakfast and the service there was very good. ##### Jim ### 8/10 Good #### Luc 1 Jul 2009 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A recommander Pour une fois nous avons voulu essayer un hotel de luxe. Une vrai réussite, rien à redire. Personnel discret et efficace, très attentionné au bien-être de la clientèle. Le prestations sont excellentes. Peut être qu'au niveau du restaurant le menu est un peu juste et manque de fantaisies. Mais c'est 10:10 ##### Luc ### 8/10 Good #### John 29 Jun 2009 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cool Venue Very stylish hotel - ideal if you are looking for something different. Perhaps the minimalist approach needs a slight adjustment here and there especially in the bathroom - not everything was easily to hand - toilet roll! - just a small point ##### John ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Leonardo Hotel London Croydon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Jurys-Inn-London-Croydon.h866550.Hotel-Information) > > [Aerotel London Heathrow Airport Terminal 2-3](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Aerotel-London-Heathrow-T2-T3.h21528024.Hotel-Information) > > [ARK Canary Wharf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Collective-Canary-Wharf.h36660267.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt House London Stratford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hyatt-House-London-Stratford.h4823071.Hotel-Information) > > [Staycity Aparthotels, London, Heathrow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Staycity-Aparthotels-London-Heathrow.h5025535.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure London Heathrow Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Mercure-London-Heathrow-Hotel.h17586.Hotel-Information) > > [The Clarendon Hotel - Blackheath](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Clarendon-Hotel-Blackheath.h916270.Hotel-Information) > > [Plaza London Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Plaza-London-Hotel.h4969048.Hotel-Information) > > [The Greenwood Hotel by Wetherspoon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Greenwood-Hotel-By-Wetherspoon.h48465856.Hotel-Information) > > [Maldron Hotel Finsbury Park, London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Maldron-Finsbury-Park-London.h92328087.Hotel-Information) > > [Ruby Zoe Hotel London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Ruby-Zoe-Hotel-London.h87843675.Hotel-Information) > > [Ibis Budget London Whitechapel - Brick Lane](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-London-Whitechapel-Brick-Lane.h29134898.Hotel-Information) > > [Safestay London Kensington Holland Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Safestay-Holland-Park.h12706774.Hotel-Information) > > [The International Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-International-Hotel.h1949.Hotel-Information) > > [London Wembley International Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-London-Wembley-International-Hotel.h890560.Hotel-Information) > > [Tribe London Canary Wharf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Tribe-London-Canary-Wharf.h83096424.Hotel-Information) > > [Stamford Bridge Hotel London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Stamford-Bridge-Hotel.h65802.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Leonardo-London-Heathrow-Airport.h570358.Hotel-Information) > > [Wembley Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Wembley-Park-Hotel.h17816788.Hotel-Information) > > [Thistle London Heathrow Terminal 5](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Thistle-London-Heathrow-T5.h882761.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel & Conference Centre London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Radisson-Hotel-Conference-Centre-London.h48444523.Hotel-Information) > > [Golders Green Stays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Golders-Grenn-Stays.h93467119.Hotel-Information) > > [City Courtyard Apartments & Penthouse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-City-Courtyard-Apartments-Penthouse.h12433631.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton London City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Arbor-City-Hotel.h201127.Hotel-Information) > > [Point A Hotel - London, Canary Wharf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Point-A-Hotel-London.h9080289.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-London-Heathrow-Airport.h55006.Hotel-Information) > > [Sanctum London Regents Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Sanctum-International-Regents-Park.h78257352.Hotel-Information) > > [Staycity Aparthotels, London, Greenwich High Road](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Staycity-Aparthotels-Greenwich-High-Road.h7065398.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel, London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel-Conference-Centre.h12391.Hotel-Information) ---
