This is more like a hostel than a hotel, but it's really good. Our room had a sink and a double bed. The window was not very clean, but not a big deal, considering that on our arrival they were still cleaning the room. It has a TV (which you will not use too much, because London is more interesting)... More

We Choosed this hotel because of feedback from other visitors, but will not go back to this one, see below, and can not recommend it to anyone. If you like to hear the Tube-trains every 4 minute for hours during your stay, or a big noisy fan from next door, or beds that have seen the best for a long... More

We really enjoyed our stay in the metro hotel. It was very cheep for London, but surprisingly nice. We had our breakfast every morning punctually at our room and a water heater for coffee and tea anytime available. The hotel is not the newest and very old fashion, but for a short stay in London just right.

When I posted on Facebook that I'd found a room in Paddington, with en suite, for 44pounds, my friends were suspicious. "Is that by the hour?" one asked. But no, that is what you pay at the Metro. The rooms are small and the corridors are shabby, but for that price what do you expect? But it has everything one... More

Depressing and dodgy, catering to only the humblest backpacker! We (late 30s couple, used to traveling) chose this hotel because it was slightly cheaper than others in the area at the time I booked. I knew we'd made a mistake when we turned up! The reception area was small, chaotic and unwelcoming. The guy checking us in wanted our 3... More

Here's a bit about me: I'm a hotel snob. It's four stars for me or nothing at all. But when I needed a bolt-hole for two nights while I waited between flights at London Heathrow, I reluctantly checked into the Metro Hotel. I expected, for £40 per night, it to be a backpackers hovel, an unclean, cess-pit where I'd spend... More

This hotel is very well located, only 30 second walk from Paddington station. The surrounding area is very nice and you can walk to Oxford Street in about 20-25 mins! I stayed in a double room which was on the top floor, it was a small room but fine for two nights. There was a t.v., kettle and fridge in... More
