We booked a family room. We didnt know it was in the basement. Felt like we were sleeping in the underground tube station! The trains didnt stop until midnight, started again at 5am, none of us slept at all! £122 to be awake all night long, it was awful.

There was a continuous smell of sewer at all times. The bathroom door had to remain closed!!! Our room was no. 331 Having no lift was a great inconvenience and there was no help offered to carry our suitcases to the 3rd floor up narrow and steep staircases. Due to groups of teenagers there was constant noise, shouting, laughing and shhhhing up to midnights

The walls are paper thin. The hotel shakes from the underground tube until midnight and then from 5:45am. There was a lack of control of some incredibly annoying French teenagers drinking, throwing up, running around the hotel and making out in the corridors until after 2am. Worst hotel experience I have ever had.

Great value for money
The property is great for the money you pay, very clean and the staff is friendly. Also kept my luggage for the day after check-out, which I really appreciated. The location is just by Paddington station, so very central, with everything in reach, both by bus and train. Would definitely recommend overall!

Excellent budget hotel Paddington
Excellent budget hotel. Stayed in another hotel in the street for the same price and left after one night due to the terrible state and found this place a few doors down. Like i said same price but much better value for money, the property has obviously been invested in substantially and the room while compact was comfortable with a hot shower, breakfast was adequate (fresh waffles were the best) and the staff were friendly.

Conveniently located - a stone’s throw away from Paddington Station. But the steep stairs are tricky to navigate if you have bulky luggages
