    “The staff is kind.”

    It's a bit of a walk from Paddington Station, but the road along the way is nice and easy to walk, and I think the safety is good. The staff are all very friendly, and breakfast is free for children up to 16 years old, so we could have it for just £21 for the parents' portion. There are many options for breakfast, and the breakfast area is clean and relaxing. The room was very minimal, so there were some things that were lacking. Also, we rented two rooms, but one of the rooms couldn't fill the bathtub with water. Overall, I am quite satisfied!

    “Hotel with a view of the station”

    It's about a 10-minute walk from Paddington Station. Since I was in a corner room, I could see the train tracks. It may vary from person to person, but the noise wasn't too bothersome. There were various types of breakfast available, and it was delicious. Additionally, the staff was very friendly.

    “Convenient location.”

    There was a water leak in the washroom, but they responded quickly and I was able to stay without changing rooms. The room was clean. All the necessary items like a kettle were provided, which was helpful. It is close to the station. There are many restaurants around, making it convenient. The hotel restaurant on the first floor was extremely delicious. I would like to use this hotel again if I have the opportunity.

    “A convenient and clean hotel within walking distance of Paddington Station.”

    I chose this hotel because my JAL flight to Haneda from Heathrow had an early morning departure, and it is conveniently located near Paddington Station. It turned out to be a great choice. The exit on the west side of the station is about a 10-minute walk. There is a slight incline with a slope, but the pathway is well-maintained, so it is easy to walk with a suitcase without any steps. The Elizabeth Line station is easily accessible by elevator. The hotel is new and clean. I arrived in the morning, and they were very helpful by accommodating an early check-in for free. The staff at the front desk were very nice. The room was also clean and nice. It was a convenient, clean, and easy-to-use hotel. The bus stop for route buses from Euston was even closer than the station, which was convenient. It was also easy to access Portobello by bus. The variety of subways and buses available made it very convenient. There is also a supermarket M&S inside Paddington Station, which was convenient for purchasing snacks like bread and drinks. I especially recommend this hotel for early morning flights from Heathrow as it is convenient, clean, and reasonably priced.

    “Clean and comfortable”

    I stayed for 4 nights. The front desk staff were polite and very kind! I was able to leave my luggage before check-in, which allowed me to explore London without being burdened! Also, it's just a few minutes from Paddington Station, making it very convenient for transportation. The area around the hotel seems to be designated as a quiet office district, so I could spend my time very peacefully. The cleaning was done daily, and sleeping in a clean bed was wonderful. It was also a nice touch that the refrigerator was stocked with drinking water during each cleaning! The thing that made me happiest as a Japanese person was that there was a bathtub!! Next to the washbasin, separate from the shower booth, there was a bathtub where I could stretch out and soak every day, which was so relaxing! However, when filling the bathtub with water, the showerhead dripped, making the floor wet, so it was a bit inconvenient. Additionally, I was pleased that the bathroom and toilet were separate!! On the last day, I ordered room service, but after waiting for an hour, the food did not arrive, so I ended up going to the restaurant to pick it up. That was a downside. Overall, it is a wonderful hotel, and I would love to stay again!!
