Loved by guests
"The room itself was a little small with a view of a brick wall outside the window but it did the job."
"A central location, in a leafy green square with a public garden, 2 minutes walk from Paddington."
"In the room there was a fan, towels, soap and shower gel, complimentary tee and coffee with electric pot and a lot of electrical outlets."

Eco-Friendly Practices
The hotel recycles plastic, aluminum, paper, batteries, glass, and oils. Energy-saving light bulbs and natural chemicals are used. A battery disposal box is available for guests. Staff encourage turning off unused electrical devices to reduce waste.
“The hotel stands out for its proximity to Paddington Station, offering convenient access to Heathrow and various London attractions; plus, it provides family-friendly accommodations. I noted the restored Victorian architecture and the direct sale of theatre tickets are nice perks. Overall, it seems like a reasonable choice for budget-conscious travelers.”
