Stayed for few nights while in London. Hotel is in a row with many others close to Paddington. It's a clean and good value hotel, but don't expect anything more. Rooms are small and at least during winter very hot / cold at nights. Rooms are heated in the evenings (battery close to your bed is hot as hell) and... more

The Olympic is set in a row of similar hotels. The hotel is small, quite and clean, did I mention small? My room was narrow enough that I could stretch out my arms and touch the walls. Using the toilet involved some interesting positioning to fit your legs under the sink. They advertise air conditioning which appears to only exist... more

We stayed at this hotel over Easter and were very disappointed with it. We were given a basement room which was adequate regarding size and comfort with a very compact but perfectly functional ensuite shower etc. What we didn't expect was the noise that would start every morning about 4am when what we presumed were staff started arriving "thumping" across... more

Have stayed in several Hotels near Paddington and found that this Hotel is comparatively clean and provides good value. Single room was quite small but adequate. Fixtures were updated. Breakfast was basic but meets needs. Staff was efficient. Seems to be well managed. more

I've stayed in the Paddington and King's Cross areas several times. This hotel is one of the better ones in terms of the newness of the fittings - elevator, carpets, beds, bathrooms are all new. The only downside of this hotel is the size of the rooms. I had a single and it was tiny. Not a big problem as... more

We got the essentials, a clean room, toilet, shower and TV, but that's about it. I suppose for the price you could expect it, but it was a very small room, pretty much enough space for a bed. The bathroom was equally small with barely enough room to fit the toilet, sink and shower. Being near Paddington and the tube... more

We wanted a family room that was clean, not too expensive, nicely decorated and convenient for sightseeing in London. The Olympic House Hotel ticked these boxes. The receptionist was polite, although, after having read previous reviews I was not about to be a demanding customer and risk the wrath of the proprietess (whom we only met on the last day... more

Perfect for a short stay. Rooms are very clean, friendly staff, good continental breakfast, low nightly rate, SkyTV, and great location. It's ideal for someone look for a room to sleep and occasional breaks from sightseeing. The size of the room and private bathroom are typical for Europe, but sufficient. Hotel does not provide shampoo, so come prepared. Overall, I... more

Our stay at the Olympic House Hotel was a good experience. I was a little worried but the lady who checked us in was very friendly and helpful. We had a quad room and it was a tight fit but we managed and being in London we were only in the room to sleep. The beds were comfortable and it... more
