Beautiful old hotel from the middle of the 19th century, once a school and hospital where Alan Turing was born. The hotel has several floors, the magnificent suites are on the second floor and can be reached by a historic elevator. To get to the upper rooms, you have to do some exercise by climbing the stairs, but you are rewarded with a view over the area. Most of the rooms are quite spacious, the beds are very comfortable and there are fridges in many rooms. The attached Persian restaurant is fine and has a bright, flowery atmosphere. It also serves as a breakfast room for hotel guests. The continental breakfast is also fine, the full English breakfast is delicious. The staff is extremely friendly and motivated to help with any problems that may arise. The room service does a great job and everything is very clean. The hotel is just around the corner from Warwick Avenue station on the Bakerloo line and the great “Little Venice” neighborhood. There is a lovely little street behind the hotel with restaurants, a café and some stores as well as a well known pub. Thanks to the friendly staff, I'm already looking forward to my next stay.

The ground floor rooms can be a bit gloomy and the upstairs rooms may suffer from low hot water pressure. Despite the lousy burnt coffee, the breakfast is good. I cannot agree with the many negative reviews! Please don't listen to people who want to stay cheaply but then complain about the basic breakfast, worn furniture edges and unfilled drill holes. You should realize that this is not a brand new or freshly renovated facility. Yes, it could do with a makeover, and some investment could be made. But it has a romantic ambience, the location is great and it is certainly value for money.

On arrival I got greeted by a very friendly receptionist and we have been given a truly marvellous room. My husband and I enjoyed the stay, the comfort, facilities, tea & coffee in the room and the fantastic bathroom too. The room was spacious and clean. We stayed as we were attending cricket matches at Lords and the room and stay overall has met and exceeded our expectations. We also loved the breakfast room, choices and the cooked breakfast. Along our stay we had many friendly interactions with all the staff. Thank you so much everyone. We will come back and stay again. Zuzana and Nick

A really miniscule improvement could be made to the tiny bathroom window and perhaps fitting a blind there.

Clean, spacious room. Lovely personel, who even helped me to get my luggage to my room! There is an AC, which was great. Location is awesome, just a 2 minute walk to the Bakerloo line. It is also possible to walk everywhere (which I did). With just a 45 minute walk, you will be in Sheperd's Bush. 25 minutes to get to Notting Hill, 30 minutes to Oxford Street.

The water strength is poor, was tough to rinse my hair. If you are washing your hair, your body will be cold of lack of water. Same for the sink, poor stream. I didn't mind, but if you are less mobile, getting up to the 4th floor will be a challenge, the elevator only goes to the 2nd floor, the 4th floor can only be reached by the stairs.

The room was beautiful. Very elegant and comfortable four-poster bed and lots of period furnishings. Lovely balcony and view and nice touches like the box of different teas. The wifi worked well, breakfast was basic but perfectly reasonable, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Location is great, 50 yards from the tube and just around the corner are some lovely pubs and cafes.

For me, everything was great. If you are looking for a corporate standard hotel, where everything is tick-box perfect and in the place you expect, and the shower pressure is always high, then this may not be the place for you. But if you are looking for a hotel with history, character, with beautiful and eclectic authentic period rooms, in a great location, and very well priced, then I'd suggest you give this gem a try.

Having Autism the large windows flooded the room with natural light. Furthermore, there are both bedside lamps and floor lamp for those with sensory issues/ like to have ambience. Spacious floor space so you don't feel confined. Good size sink and shelf area to place bathroom products. Plug sockets by the bed. Proper size kettle and fridge. TV with a good range of channels Ryan and Sanna were friendly and helpful, addressing any issue that arrose. Quietly situated in a residential area, walking distance to Paddington but Bakerloo line nearby. Lovely coffee /bar room with wall mural and greenery and well upholstered furniture.

It's such a cosy hotel. A little old but that's part of the charm. The bed was great. Breakfast was standard, nothing fancy but quite alright. It felt like home. I loved it and will definitely return. The bad reviews must be from people who like modern shiny all white hotels. They just booked the wrong hotel. You get what you see from the pictures.

Nothing I didn't like.

The reviews I read for this hotel on Booking.com are a little harsh, in my opinion. However, I can only speak from my experience. Yes, there may be a few areas of the hotel which could do with a lick of paint or a change of the wallpaper, but overall, I had an excellent experience and I would happily recommend this hotel to friends and family. The style, feel and comfort of the hotel outweigh the few minor cosmetic improvements which I'm sure the staff are already aware of. The rooms and beds (I met friends there who were also very happy) were clean and comfortable. A minute walk from Warwick Avenue tube station.

I can't fault this hotel. I would happily stay here again. A few minor cosmetic improvements may be needed, but these are not something which niggle me personally.

Excellent service, with very friendly and helpful staff, particularly the evening team on the front desk and restaurant/bar. I was very kindly upgraded, to a stunning and luxurious room - possibly one of the best hotel rooms that I’ve ever stayed in! The hotel itself is very clean, charming and in a brilliant, central location with easy access to plenty of London attractions and train stations etc. Overall, 10/10 for such a quality hotel that offers great value! Highly recommended!

The staff were accommodating, swapping us to a different room as the air conditioning in ours wasn't working. The breakfast was unexciting but adequate. The building is very grand, with matching dated interior, but it was pleasant enough and the four poster bed gave it an opulent feel. The room was clean and comfortable. If you are expecting everything to be modern, bright and perfect, you may be disappointed, but for the price and location, this hotel is ideal.

The location was great. We had trouble getting my husband wheelchair into the property, there was'nt any ramps. The staff was very helpful in assisting us with the wheelchair, that he injured his leg. ( which wasn't serious). The hotel room was exceptionally clean. The chef was very friendly. Infact the whole of the staff was very pleasant.

There's no ramps for any wheelchair users.
