The only good thing was the breakfast and the location. The room was the smallest I've ever stayed in. It was hotter than hell and there is no air. The one window needed to be open day and night for air or I think someone could literally die in there. I get it, London is normally not as hot as when we stayed in July, but I would thoyit would always be a bit too warm and stuffy. One window, no screen, 3 cramped beds for the family room and it had the absolute smallest shower and bathroom. It was so terrible we had to laugh. No air flow in summer with a fan that didn't even work. It was miserable.

If you have any mobility issues, be aware that there is no elevator in this B&B.

Having said that, the room was quiet, the bed was comfy, the shower worked, free (instant) coffee and tea in the room was most welcome, and the breakfast was ample. The hotel is a 5-minute walk to Paddington Station and to Kensington and Hyde Parks. The Balmoral represents very good value for money.

Unhelpful check in staff. Be aware that , while the website says check in closes at 2300, it doesn’t state that means the reception isn’t staffed and therefore even if you have checked in before 1400 and there fore can’t get to your room, but plan to return after 2300 you will not be able to collect your room key! No air conditioning. Noisy fan supplied was ineffective. Quite noisy with window open with road traffic. However, room was clean and it was walking distance to our concert in Hyde Park.

Firstly, the staff I interacted on the front desk and at breakfast were all polite and efficient.

However, the pillows were awful and the bed was on a slant making for a very poor night's sleep.

Most disappointingly, when I arrived home, I realised that my Apple Pencil had dropped off of from the magnet on my iPad. The only time that I unpacked that particular part of my rucksack was in the hotel room so I immediately contacted the hotel via the Expedia chat that my confirmation had been sent via. No response after 24 hours so I then tried contacting them via their own website 'Contact Us' page. Now, eight days later I've still had no response.

I can't recommend this hotel.

I enjoyed my stay at Balmoral House Hotel. It's been a while since I could stay somewhere that does a full English breakfast! It's very convenient for the local shops, train and tube, especially the Elizabeth line.

My room was cleaned daily and the staff are very welcoming.The sole quibble I have is that there wasn't a shelf to put soap and shampoo on in the shower. It's a small thing, but it makes it easier to manage.

Weekend rugby trip

Down in London for a rugby weekend and as always stayed in Paddington. It's pretty central and within walking distance of all the sights which was really handy as there was a tube strike throughout our visit. Sussex Gardens is just off the main street and set back from the road by gardens so nice and quiet at night. The hotel was nice and our room was spacious for a twin with comfortable beds and a small ensuite shower and toilet. Furnishings and layout are not modern like the big chain hotels but it is clean and tidy, with daily housekeeping and fresh towels etc and the staff on reception and in the breakfast room were pleasant and friendly. The only downside is there is no lift so it's not suitable if stairs are an issue as the rooms are over 5 floors. We've stayed at a few hotels on this road and they are all very similar in price and facilities and don't disappoint.

Highly recommended

This hotel was very close to Paddington and Paddington station to get the tram. staff was polite. If you get the big bus, the drop off is about one block away from hotel. The neightbor seemed safe. Room service came everyday to replenish sheets and coffee/tea. Breakfast finished at 8:30 which was a little inconvenient for our family. But at least they had breakfast. Would definitely stay at this hotel again. Rooms were small but still could move around and bathrooms were even smaller. If a person doesn’t need the luxuries of a big tv, but want a safe place to stay. I would recommend Balimoral Hotel.

There are actually two hotels opposite one another on either side of the street, we stayed in the second Hotel which was fine, nice, clean rooms and more spacious rooms than many places I have stayed in in London. There are no staff on hand, other than cleaners, in the second Hotel.. reception, breakfast etc is in the main Hotel, but none of those things actually mattered.

The Basics - nothing more

I just wanted somewhere to sleep and to have breakfast conveniently located in town. The Balmoral did that but it is basic. The bed would have been too small had I been much above six foot. The toilet was uncomfortably cramped. It also smelled but I am unhygenic enough to do without a shower for one night. Breakfast was the best bit but there was a queue when I left the breakfast room.

The room was as advertised, three twin beds. The towel bar as well as the toilet paper holder were semi-detatched from the wall and seemed like it would fall off. The shower head holder in the shower was broken so the shower head would fall with the slightest touch. The breakfast staff and the housekeeping staff were friendly and helpful, the front desk staff were abrupt and not particularly welcoming or helpful.

The location is excellent for walking to the Paddington Station which is a central hub from the airport and other transportation lines.

Disappointing, frustrating. Will not return.

First, this place has no lifts, and they offered me no assistance in taking 2 suitcases and a backpack up 4-5 flights of stairs to my room.

My sleep was disrupted several times during my stay - you could hear vehicles' motors, and each metal piece they ran over on the street, clearly from my 4th floor room. I could also hear much of what was going on in the next room through the wall.

The bathroom is ridiculously small - I had to maneuver around the sink just to use the toilet, and again to get into the shower. The shower is quite small - I'm 6 ft. tall with wider shoulders, and kept the door open for showering because I could barely get around otherwise.

Breakfast was good, but they ended service at 8 am or something and wouldn't let me have it the second day. What 3 star hotel ends breakfast at 8 am?!

The front desk is in another building across the street. You have to ring the bell to be allowed in. While the young man at the desk was polite, it was extremely disappointing that they don't provide the guests disposable razors or shaving kits. Again, what 3 star hotel doesn't provide those?

When I read the \"Excellent\" reviews posted here, the first thing that comes to mind is that these reviews must be some how from people related to the owner. This is probably the worse property that we've ever stayed!! The only thing good about this hotel is that it is conveniently located. Period. There is no lift, and you must haul all your bags through stairs just a bit wider than 2 feet. We are older people, and we had to drag our bags up and down more that 54 steps, with staff watching but no help at all. An old lady that looks like the owner is very rude, and another lady in charge of breakfast, even worse. Talking about breakfast, when I see people here complimenting breakfast must be that they did not have dinner the night before. A couple of microwaved \"fried\" eggs, another couple of bacon strips (the only good thing in the breakfast) and a tiny portion of white beans that tasted like... well, like nothing. Only in London this hotel can charge above 160 GBP a day and still remain open.

Ok room, but very rude member ofstaff at breakfast

Check-in went well, the room was ready early allowing us to drop our cases and explore London. The room was good for the money we paid.
We had a family room for 5 on the ground floor in their second building, this wold have been fine except there was a large security light pointed directly at the window, lighting up their sign and hotel front. The curtains were not blackout and this meant it was like daylight at 10.30pm. We spoke to the guy on the counter on the first morning who said he would speak to management and ask them to turn the light off before 10pm. This didnt happen with the light still being on at gone 10:30pm, preventing us for getting to sleep.
Breakfast was limited but ok. However on our third morning the lady in charge was incredibly rude to the guests arriving in the dining room. They ran out of bacon, she was ordering people to sit down, telling people they could only have egg and beans, asking people to leave as soon as they put their knives and forks down - overall just rude!

Arrived at the hotel which is situated in a great place in Paddington a couple minutes from the tube station. Once there there a lovely male staff member that attended to me providing me with a clean well room.

I was informed that breakfast is from 06:30 - 08:30 which meant I had to rise early on a weekend to have breakfast across the road. Not great if you desire to lay in.

As the TV didn’t work I went over and asked the receptionist who was a male to look at my TV which he did but there was still a problem with it. On returning the second time I was directed to the owner of the hotel who when I spoke to assertively proceeded to shout with an aggressive tone become quite defensive about my complaint. This was abusive and totally disgusting and unacceptable behaviour. The male receptionist that gave me my room key looked awkward and shocked at this woman’s response. This literally left a bad taste in my mouth and spoilt my entire day resulting in me deciding to leave London that very same evening Which meant I paid for two nights but stayed for one.

On leaving nothing was said, no apologies for the TV not working and the owner and whom I presume was her daughter the manager never said a word. They took the key and that was it. Never ever will I stay in this hotel again. There are others for the same price in just as good a location. On the breakfast timings, room across the road, abusive customer service I wouldn’t recommend this hotel.

Breakfast from 6.30 yo only 8.30 is not long enough.Most people only arrive in the last half hour and since the dining room is small that leads to over crowding.The dining staff also do not seem to realise that if you are there by 8.30 you are entitled to ask for more coffee at 8.45.

The breakfast was nice, with plenty of choice of either a set cooked breakfast or fruit and croissants. We were only there for 2 days but it felt like we were staying with friends by the last day. The room was compact, but had everything we needed. We wanted to visit some museums after we had checked out and the hotel were happy for us to leave our bags with them while we went to explore. As it was Halloween the staff also gave my son sweets, which he liked. We chose the place because it was the cheapest in the area, but we would definitely come back here if we need to come to London again.

The breakfast was pretty good, electric kettle in the room to make instant coffee or tea. Rooms and bathrooms were very small, but clean. Close to paddington station and lots of restaurants.

The check in time was much later than Expedia indicated. The room was in a building across the street and up 6 flights of narrow stairs. The indoor temperature was about 85 degrees on a 72 degree day and it never cooled down. The maids were also not finished cleaning the rooms, even after their stated checkin time (which was 2 hours after Expedia’s time). The bathroom is the size of an airplane bathroom. It was quiet though.
