The staff and owner were very helpful and friendly, and the hotel was very clean and well-maintained. We are definitely returning and recommending it to our friends. more

I can honestly say that this "hotel" is quite possibly the worst I have stayed in so far.The room was quite smelly and also quite dirty ( the bathroom was clean though). The beds were stained and it was hard to tell what the original colour of the chair in the corner was.I didn't unpack as heaven knows what was... more

The Normandie is a complete was of money. The Shower ceiling collapsed on my wife while she was taking a shower. The owner did not even give us an apology. One night we were locked out of the hotel in the rain for over 30 minuets and once again nothing was done for us. There are tons of decent, clean... more

Stayed here with my bf during our xmas trip in 2007, was look through the many hotels and B&Bs around the area (Paddington) & we decided on Normandie coz' we were on a tight budget and it has a nice location.

After reading the reviews on this page I feared the worse. But I was nicely surprised by hte Normandie Hotel. Sure, the curtains and carpet are old. But the bed was fine and the bathroom nice and clean. Location is very good, save and clean neighbourhood just around the corner of Paddington station. Tube and buses take you everywhere, within... more

I am fairly certain they tried to rob us, twice. Once, the front desk guy came into the room without knocking, and when he saw me said that he had come to check that our windows were closed, which made little sense. Then, the next night at 1:30am someone tried to sneak into our room while we were asleep. Unfortunately... more

Fawlty Towers with John Cleese must be a 6 star hotell compared to Normandie Hotel. I recommend all other tourists to London, even my worse enemies, never to walk through the door at Normandie Hotel. Rude personel and a VERY low standard. It is not a hotel. Bed & Breakfast is a better description, or even just a bed, as... more

Now be warned. This is truely for backpackers who want to waste their money. I am not a backpacker and chose this decaying box because of the recent reviews. I arrived afternoon and raining. It tock a very long time for someone to answer the door. Yes they had my booking, 50 pounds you must pay. I had already paid... more

We had a very bad experience with this hotel. The staff was very rude and very unhelpful. When we want to cancel our stay, the owner came and started talking very unprofessionally and rudely (his way of talking to us was very annoying and noisy!)!! The breakfast was very bad.!! It included baked beans(in the morning!!), bread, jam, and tea!!Nothing... more
