We had a twin room on the fifth floor with a view of Hyde Park. The room was tidy and clean and the view was good with the large window. The downsides that we experienced were that one of our twin beds was squeaky so that made it difficult to sleep. Also, we could hear a lot of the other guests, especially the closing of doors which was quite loud. This may not be ideal for anyone who's a light sleeper or people with babies or young children who are easily woken. Aside from those issues, the hotel is great. The location was idea with walking access to the Queensway and Bayswater Underground station. There is a lot of restaurants close by, including the Shell station below the hotel which has snacks and drinks. I would definitely consider staying here again. ##### Amira Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matthew 26 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Every single staff member really helpful and friendly.

The stop for the hop on hop off bus and other transportation is right out front. Our room was very nice comfortanle and cean. Beds were comfortable. Breakfast was great. Really good food and lots of selection. Our waitress/hostess named Hina was very attentive; kind and helpful to everyone. She remembered us every day and made sure we got our special order eggs. She was also quick to make sure the food trays and bread etc were well stocked. We have recommended this hotel to friends planning a trip to London. ##### Julianne Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ## 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) ---
