Liked: Amenities
The room was certainly adequate. It was smaller, but met our needs. The walls were very thin and we could hear the people next to us talking, but maybe that’s how it goes with these older hotels. It’s a about a 10 minute walk to Paddington in five minutes to Hyde Park.

The hotel is currently under construction so all amenities are inaccessible such as the bar, breakfast, and coffee station. The construction wasn’t too bothersome noise wise. Aside from the construction, the room itself was lovely and we had a comfortable stay. The location is also great. Just a few streets west is a great neighborhood with lots of shops, cafes, and grocery stores. We particularly loved how close we were to Hyde Park. Would stay again!
