Great experience ruined by a receptionist
Up until the last minute it was top notch. Yes, there’s no elevator, steep stairs and the interior design might raise questions (like having the shower in the hallway), but for that price and location - amazing. Also great staff. All but one which changed the entire experience. Upon checking I asked the receptionist if he could order a taxi for me. It was for a very short ride, approximately 5 minutes to Paddington. Would have done that by foot if not the stormy weather. The receptionist said it’s not a problem and made a call. He said it would be like 10 minutes which I found odd, but had about 30 minutes till my train so didn’t mind. It didn’t take 10, it took 20. It wasn’t a real taxi either, just a driver who didn’t even know where the Elizabeth line platforms are. He dropped me in a place where I had to walk 5 minutes in the rain, and I also missed my train. But that’s forgivable. What is the fact he had no meter and demanded no less than 20 GBP for less than a mile. I had to pay in cash and got no receipt. Felt like a scam coordinated with the receptionist. For that, and only for that, I won’t return. Because everything else was great.

Close to 2 Bayswater and Queensway tubes. Paddington station about 20 minute walk (or 1 station away on tube), so a good option for the Elizabeth Line to or from the airport. Great proximity to Kensington Gardens, Notting Hill, Holland Park, Little Venice. Friendly staff. Quiet. Walkable to many shops and restaurants. Small kitchen. Overall a good budget stay. I think the hotel's 3-star rating is bang on. This isn't 4 or 5 star, but neither is the price. Would stay again. No elevator if you have any difficulty with stairs.

Lovely hotel with bags of character. One thing I would say is that the stairs are very steep and quite a walk if you’re not in great shape, but this was all part of the charm of this beautiful old place.

The hotel was very conveniently located just a short walk from Bayswater Queensway, tube station, shops, restaurants and also Hyde Park. Converted from London townhouses, the hotel antique in layout and quite charming. There are some caveats though: I was in a single room and while well equipped, it was TINY. The second problem was that it was on the third floor, there is no lift and the staircase is VERY narrow and steep. I had bags and it was a real physical challenge to get them to my room. Beware the rooms on the third floor unless you are fit! 🙂 Overall it was a good stay though and I’d stay again.

I enjoyed my stay here. Service was good and is located near the Bayswater and Queensway station. Hyde Park is less than a block away. I would just make sure to get a room in the lower floors. They don’t have an elevator and the stairs were so steep! Kudos to the cleaning crew who kept my room always tidy and clean ♥️

I was in one of the smaller rooms as single traveler and I knew what to expect re. room size. These smaller rooms have been very well renovated, the only downside being that you have to go up four flights of stairs to get there... The property is a very lovely Victorian house with a nice backyard / little garden. The staff was helpful when I arrived as I got there late morning, having flown from the US, and they did their best to get me to my room quickly. Upon checking out, they asked me if I wanted a bottle of water or coffee. Overall, a very pleasant stay and I recommend this property.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The rooms are very small, the beds are slanted so bad you fall out. (not joking). Lots of very narrow stairs to get to the room. No AC, it's on a very noisy street and you have to have the windows open. We asked after the first night if we could change rooms or cancel our reservation. They simply said no and wouldn't entertain it at all. I don't leave bad reviews often, however, I felt I had to with this one.
