I feel moved to write my first report on trip adviser after several years of using this site to read up on hotels before booking them. This place just feels right , on arrival ( 2 mins. walk from Paddington Main Line Station ) we were greeted by a smiling receptionist and a speedy professional check in.Our room was over... more

We stayed at the Cardiff for 3 nights, and it was really great. The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean, small but nice. The best thing is that the underground station is about 300 m far from the hotel. A 5 minute walk. Breakfast is good but the tables are a little bit to small. But who... more

We stayed here for the sixth time and were very happy. The stay was nine nights. Breakfast was wonderful, all the staff were very helpful. The location is the best in London for access to the underground-3 minute walk, many train lines coming here. Will stay again next year. more

Never again

The room was very small, it stank and the TV only had 3 channels. One window glass was broken... The only good think of the hotel is the English breakfast. The reception staff were really unhelpful. One day we arrived at the hotel full of shopping bags so we could not open the door with the key (it was 2p.m.)... more

Hi. This is a decent hotel for the price (I paid about £70 with breakfast). The Receptionist was really helpful in giving me directions for somewhere decent to eat. My room was a decent size, but I had a double room for single use. Most importantly, for me, it was clean. Breakfast was nothing to write home about, but this... more

I decided to stay with the hotel mainly because of its location. Close proximity of the Paddington Station (access to Bakerlo Line, Circle Line, and trains to Windsor) is a great asset for this hotel. I spent there 2 days with my parents. Right after I arrived I was welcomed by nice staff at the front desk. The check-in was... more

Stayed for 2 nights early December 09 with a friend. Our 2nd floor twin room was small but ideal for us - clean, very comfy beds, lovely and warm, utterly quiet (looked over the back). Bathroom had a shower, tiny basin, loo - water was pleasingly hot and again, the bathroom was scrupulously clean. We paid £89 a night and... more

i stayed here as it was close to Paddington and I was leaving the following day for Heathrow and could jump on the Heathrow Express. I had a single room on the 2nd floor (no elevator). It was VERY tiny and the bathroom was even tinier. I had to be careful when using the toilet as there was a ridge... more

Stayed here for 5 nights at the end of September, first of October. We had two rooms, 1 double and 1 triple. The triple was extremely cramped. The bathroom and shower were the tiniest I have ever seen. However they both appeared to have been recently refurbished and were sparkling clean with new floor and shower tiles and fixtures. I... more
