Not bad but I won't return.
The location is great, however the hotel is old. A few problems. Only two towels were provided. Haven't they heard of hand towels? The WiFi is terrible... especially on the 4th floor. But the worst was a lack of a coffee machine and a fridge. This is an expected aspect of most hotels these days. The staff was friendly and the shower was good but a bit low.

Great affordable find
Fabulous location, close to Lancaster Gate tube and 15 mins from Paddington tube station. Across the road to the beautiful Kensington Gardens. Room was very clean, bed was comfortable and great shower with super water pressure. The staff were super friendly. I had some lovely chats with some of the women cleaning the rooms. I felt very welcome. Like the website says, no mod cons.. but everything I needed for a great affordable stay in London.

Well located hotel in atmospheric building. Decor a bit tired. They were filming a TV series (apparently the hotel is often used for shoots) and it was quite annoying as a paying guest to be shunted around and have to go in and out of back entrances rather than use the main entrance. We were not i

8/10 Very good

The hotel is conveniently located near multiple metro lines and directly across from Hyde Park. The bathroom is a bit outdated and small. If A/C was available, I would rate the hotel higher because my trip occurred during a bit of a hot spell. The beautiful fall weather was wonderful, but my room was stuffy even with the window open at night and a fan running on high.

Good stay would recommend
I travel to London frequently and have a list of hotels that are my preferred places for £156 or under. I have added this hotel to that list. The hotel is about 5 minutes' walk to Lancaster Gate underground station (Central Line). There is also a bus stop outside the hotel for a bus into Piccadilly (number 94). Hyde Park is across the street. Restaurants are about 5 - 10 minutes walk. My room was a triple, with a double and a single bed and a large two-seater sofa. There was an ensuite shower over bath and a large cupboard. The room was big and I would think plenty of room even for three with luggage (see photos). The only thing I struggled with was the height of the showerhead. It is quite low, about neck height, and I am 5' 7". Breakfast was a help yourself continental. (If you are looking at booking breakfast through Hotels, Expedia, or the like, breakfast booked at the hotel on the day is only £10 per person. Hotels.com wanted to charge me £14.) Staff were great, friendly, and helpful. The hotel is having a bit of a refurbishment and looks good. The building is impressive with high ceilings and looks quite grand. As a thing to look for, the lift indicator on the ground floor is an old-fashioned mechanical arrow indicator.

The room was very big, which was good. I was surprised to find a large crack in one of the windows. When I reported it the staff said they were unaware and carried out an initial repair wih cellotape. Additionally, in order to use the televsion I had to unravel the lead and plug behind the televsion and connect the aerial lead.
