The room was clean but very small but was expected, the TV did not work at all which was frustrating with a child who wanted to chill in the evening. One night the bar/terrace was closed which was inconvenient as we had to go back out into Paddington. Overall stay was convenient, nice hotel, staff provided an ice lolly and water on arrival which was fab as it was hot and we’d been travelling for hours.

The problem we had was that it was not possible to cool the room down and as it was west facing the sun was on it in the afternoon and evening. The fan only created a fan oven effect. We had to go out to get some relief. However we needed the windows open overnight which meant we got some cooler air but that came with street noise.
An air conditioning unit would have solved the problem.

No A/C, the room was like a box and could barely breathe inside, all we got was a lousy fan that did nothing and also couldn’t open the window either. The lounge was closed on our first day for a private event which we were not made aware of in advance. There wasn’t even a proper reception area it was just kind of thrown by the hallway and just felt very tight. The noise from our room was excessive, doors slamming constantly waking us up. The staff were really friendly and helpful and also the cleaners were very polite and kind so they both deserve props but everything else was awful, especially when you are paying a lot of money which we did for a few nights, you hope and expect the bare minimum and we didn’t have that. Wouldn’t recommend staying at all too be honest

The hotel room was gorgeous, clean and comfortable. Lovely comfy bed. The room was a good size and everything was spotless. Our only issue was that the window barely opened and we stayed in warm weather. The room was boiling and we needed the fan on day and night

The hotel was very cute and had lots of character and charm. There was a heat wave and there is no air-conditioning. It was beyond the control of the hotel. They did have a fan and a window that opened. However, that was the hottest hotel experience I’ve ever had. My recommendation would be that it would be wonderful as long as it’s not the heat of summer.

Excellent location next to Paddington Station. Lots of great restaurants around. Buses easily available. HopOnHopOff bus stops right in front of the hotel. Hyde Park is a ten minute walk. The downside, as others have stated, is that the rooms are small; two of us couldn't open our suitcases at the same time. The bathroom had glass in the door, which is fine if you're alone, but not fine if you're sharing a room. The inside of the hotel is a maze to get to your room. It's noisy at night, with sounds from the street and people. However, staff were very helpful, particularly in carrying our bags up and down the stairs.

This is an amazing little hotel right in the heart of Paddington, a couple of minutes from the tube or trains. The rooms are small but beautifully set up, the staff are great. The restaurant/bar is amazing with original art and curated photography that changes every few months, selected by a collaborative community team. The restaurant has a guest chef that also changes every few months offering a unique menu. The current young Greek chef is fantastic. The brunches are amazing - worth a trip just for those.
Very, very highly recommended, for a short stay or just for brunch or dinner.

I arrived at 11pm (and had advised them of this in the pre-check in) but when I got there the front door was locked, the front desk unattended, the door bell was broken and they didn’t answer the phone. After waiting outside for 10 mins (and being just about to leave to hunt down an alternative) someone appeared.

The lift was out of order - so this involved dragging bags up three flights of stairs and along long narrow corridors.

The room was hot (no, there was not the fan in the room as advised in the materials). The room was small (I expected this) but the bathroom was terrible. The sink design is hopeless - water basically goes everywhere.

This place is convenient for Heathrow - but I’ll be finding an alternative next time

Really great hotel when staying in Paddington. Super close to the train station so location is perfect for getting around. Room was pretty small size even though I booked the largest room option but this is typical for London. Extremely clean and house keeping came every day. Room faced the street which was pretty noisy until late at night so keep that in mind if you’re a light sleeper. The bar/lounge were great offering delicious food for breakfast and dinner. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend staying here!

Loved the convenience of the area, the bar/lounge area on the second floor, the tea/coffee pantry and the sparkling water. The small rooms are attractive-- it seemed like more could be done to optimize storage (with some sort of shelving situation). Because of the small rooms, we *really* loved the convenient second floor lounge/bar area! This was our favorite hotel on our trip!

The room was spotless! The location is great! The bed is comfy! The hotel is groovy and funky and cool. The room is small, like an old European hotel, with a radiator and a wonderful view. Quirky in the best possible way.

A lovely quaint hotel fantastically located near Paddington station and Hyde Park. Perfect for our trip to Winter Wonderland. The staff were friendly, the rooms immaculately cleaned and the Victorian style bathrooms very cute. House keeping was also very good and changed our towels and made the bed.

Sadly there are some cons. The lift was out of service (and from the reviews it sounds like this is a recurring problem, not a one off) and our room was located down what felt like a service passage behind the kitchen. This was made quite inconvenient when we arrived with suitcases because they had decided to stack tables and chairs in this narrow hallway for an event. So thanks for that.

The “large” room is not very large, and not suitable for 2 people. There is a “wardrobe” that can hold exactly one coat, a single luggage rack, two small bed side tables and a windowsill. There are no other surfaces to put things on so the majority of our stuff ended up on the floor.

We were quite sad to discover no in-room kettle. This is a basic facility provided by the worst premier inns. Instead your only option is the very expensive coffee place in the lobby. The free water bottles and refill station was a nice touch though.

The room was also very cold in November, with a single pane window and a tiny radiator that did little to heat the room.

Our biggest complaint by far however is that our window was located at the front of the building and there are multiple pubs next door and a

As every other review mentioned: the rooms are TINY but you’re not booking this place for the room - you’re booking it because it’s in a fantastic location. You cannot beat the convenience, walkability, proximity to transportation hubs, restaurants, bars, attractions, etc.

plus the property makes up for the size in other great ways: they have a cold water bottle filling station, the body products are lovely, the property is beautiful, and the bed is comfortable.

Check in was underwhelming by having to self serve ourselves, the reception area was unclear and difficult to find as it turned out to be people that looked like they were hot-desking. We were able to check in early, which was a bonus.

However the room was small! It was labelled a medium but it was small for two adults and limited room to walk around one side of the bed.

Good breakfast, however service was very slow.
Good location right by Paddington station, which I can see makes the hotel more expensive. However, the hotel costs the same as the Hoxton chain and I feel they offer better value for money

Room was clean, but edge of sink needed a little attention. The rubber trim was lifting in the corners, they took care of it right away.
It is a cute hotel, but the rooms are on the small side. We booked the large room and that was a bit of a stretch for us both, but we don't spend much time in our room, we are out and about. It is a cozy hotel, close to pubs, easy to walk to sites, Paddington station is across the street. We choose this place for location and convenience.

This hotel is a tale of two halves. The lobby and dining areas are lovely and quite stylish. Describing the room as \"basic\" is a complement. It was miniscule with no space to hang your clothes.

Worse is the labrynth of stairs that you must travel to get to your room once getting out of the lift. It may hold a certain charm for folks who like old buildings, but it is a unsafe nightmare for a person like me, who has a disability. Also, you have to walk through an outdoor bridge in the rain to get to the wing with your room.

All of this would be fine and fair if there was some sort of description of the venue in the hotel details upon booking. Then, the customer would have the chance to make an informed decision about whether to book a stay. Instead, you are greeted by a hipper-than-thou clerk who impatiently explains the weird and winding journey you must take to get to your cell-size room.

No where near worth the price.

Great breakfast included in the room rate. Clean and comfortable room, with an amazing (and hot) shower. Friendly staff and nothing too much trouble. Also, a great, central location and very convenient to get around. We had a street facing room and worried we wouldn’t sleep due to noise - no issues whatsoever, slept well and comfortably with minimal sound. Would recommend and stay again if ever in London overnight.

Cute small hotel with close proximity to Paddington Station. A bit quirky with crazy access to rooms - even using the elevator there are several stairs and fire doors to contend with.

In my experience, this is an overrated property and question the authenticity of of the hotel being 4 Star. This is not better than the Hilton across the street. I'm sharing my Google review too. Even a week later, I'm still surprised at how over rated and over priced this hotel is. No one should pay more than $200 / 150 pounds for a large room at this place.

No business travelers should stay here. Anyone over 35 shouldn’t stay here. Anyone from North America shouldn’t stay here. I paid $270 USD for a room that smelled of garbage plus smoke from the alley. No air conditioning or climate control. The bathroom fan was broken and disgusting. This place is in my top 3 worst hotels ever. I was debating between the Hilton and this hotel. The Hilton was $30 more. What a mistake. I question the 5 star reviews as legitimate. Maybe they are a bunch of 20 somethings that don’t know any better. Relight now I’m listening to some drunk guy singing in the alley. Even had a homeless looking guy piggybacking into the hotel when I came in. I am not a door man.
There is no front desk. It’s more like a dormitory with an RA to greet you. This place is barely two steps up from a hostel. The elevator didn’t even go to the floor the room is on. It is not accessible. If you can't carry all your luggage up a flight of Victorian-era steps, then don't stay here.

This place does NOT have air conditioning. Not sure how I missed that when booking but very important to know. They do have a fan and you can request a second. Room was very small and there was lipstick on my pillow - I assume from last guest. It was close to the tube station, however.

Poor service

Great we arrived and got early check in. The lift was broken so had to carry cases up two flights of stairs. No iron in the room so asked if one could be brought up.( had to do this twice with two different people and still no iron was brought to the room for the whole stay) The room didn’t have AC it was like an oven( standing fan blowing hot air) No coffee/or tea making facilities in the room. Very disappointed and had no sleep for the two nights we were there. Would not book this hotel again. Shame great location.

Smaller than a student’s box room

We completed an online form prior to check in and were allocated a check in time of 2.30pm. We arrived at 2.45pm as our train was late and were told that check in was from 3pm, which meant we had to wait as our room wasn’t ready.

We feel that that the advertising on the website makes the hotel look a lot better than it is and is false.

We booked a medium-sized room at a cost of £274. This in itself is very expensive considering the size of the room we were given. It was absolutely tiny and difficult to move around in.

Breakfast was poor and took a very long time to arrive.

All of these things meant that our stay was not enjoyable at all. Our stay was for a special occasion which was completely ruined.

We looked at lots of hotels in London but chose this one based on their advertising.

Average stay

Hotel was ok, weird system for check in just with people on a laptop in the front of the hotel. Which was abit difficult when people were checking in and out. Staff were nice and breakfast food was good. Just a shame the room as incredibly hot, the room was at the back of the hotel so was in direct site of the apartments behind. There is a smoking area for the pub below at the back. Then also there was building work that stared at 7am on Saturday and Sunday. Stay was ok but abit gutted about the noise levels and how warm the rooms were after spending quite a lot of money for a 2 night stay.

Wouldn't Return

Getting in touch with the staff was nearly impossible. They agreed to cancel my reservation early due to how disappointed I was with the accommodations, but Hotels.com was never able to reach them to confirm. There was no air conditioning during a major London heat wave—while I understand this may be common, it should have been clearly stated in the listing. Additionally, although they allowed my friend’s two dogs to stay for one night, they reversed the decision the following day, forcing us to move hotels. I would not stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay in this little hotel with plenty of personality. It’s quirky and one has to be expecting that. The staff are wonderful- smiling, easy to reach and helpful. We were a bit concerned that there was no air conditioning but they supplied us with two fans and room temp was fine. The breakfast was delicious- I wish we had included it in our booking. And it’s super convenient to Paddington station, just half a block,so easy to reach from LHR and easy to get around London. Plus close to Hyde Park through a stretch of Bayswater, and to Little Venice. Quite pleased we stayed there and would come again. I would advise booking the larger rooms as the small and medium are small.

If you just need a night to stay for the location (Paddington station), then this place will do. Otherwise, it's noisy (inside and outside), small rooms and always hot in there. I'd hate to go there when it was hot outside! Yes, they give you a fan in the room, but it's loud and only moves the hot air around. Bathrooms as also very tight. I won't stay there again.

Great location to Paddington, nice staff, and \"compact\" bunk room (which was expected). What I didn't expect was how noisy it would be there. I know they can't control other patrons, but people were loud and slamming doors constantly. Nice they have coffee/tea stations, however one was right outside my room which also was a cause of more noise. Would have preferred not being near that.

This is a boutique hotel with a convenient setting near Paddington Station. It has a coffee house in the lobby/entry. The staff were kind but not overly friendly. Breakfast options were very nice. Please note, the rooms are tiny which means the bathrooms are also tiny and there is no lift. Thankfully these were not an issue for us, but if you are unable to use stairs easily or are a taller/larger person, you may feel a lot more cramped. There is a park across the street and a lot of touristy shops nearby. Pubs and restaurants are plentiful within a short walk. It was perfect for one night.
