Excellent location for adventuring through London, very close to the Marble Arch, Hyde Park, etc. Breakfast Attendant was very friendly and helpful. She remembered what we liked every morning and brought it right over to us.
The most delicious toast from the cafe. The Server called it "Brown Toast", but it was more like Multigrain, so yummy with Tea.

The room was comfortable, clean and quiet. The staff @ the desk were very helpful: holding our bags upon our arrival, then placing them in our room once it was ready. They also assisted us with transport and our bags upon departure. The breakfast was excellent, as was the attentive staff. Lastly, the location was very convenient to Marble Arch and Paddington Station and nearly nextdoor to a delightful and very good pub. When returning to London, this is where I will go!

The hotel was a great stay. I enjoyed staying here; the staff, especially at the reception, were exceptionally warm and helpful. The room I first stayed in would, however, need a touch-up; the room had a faulty toilet, and there was a water leak from the roof. I was, however, given another room the next day, which was quite spacious and beautiful. The hotel is in a nice location, you can easily access cafes and restaurants just around the block, and Oxford Street is about a 10-minute walk. I highly recommend it, I would definitely stay again.

Hotel staff friendly and room clean. Had 1st floor and was extremely bright in the room at night. Did have to wear eye mask to try to sleep. Maybe it was our location on the 1st floor but the room was aslo loud as you heard people walking throught the hardwood floors during the night.
