Nice, not great

The hotel was fine, great location and nice staff, but missing some thing that would make it great. - Beds were a bit hard but acceptable - Shower had no place for soaps/conditioners, had to keep them on the floor - The electric kettle's lid was broken, and it warmed up the water soooo slooowlyyy... my really cheap e.kettle is 3 times faster. - No warm breakfast, just toast/cereal. Hotel breakfast really needs bacon.. But otherwise not bad at all, a safe choice to make.

部屋はそれぞれ違った作りになっているようである。泊まった部屋はかなり狭い作りだった。旅行中なので、シャワー浴びて寝るくらいなので、問題ないが、窮屈感はある。401号室のドアの開け方にコツがいるようで、10回に1回くらいの割合てしかあかない。。。

The good: the location (very convenient if you are arriving or departing from Paddington Station). Our room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The daytime desk clerk was pleasant and efficient. The mediocre: the included breakfast is okay but bland. Cold cereal, some sliced tomato and bread for toasting. No interesting roals, pastries, etc. And no hot food. The bad: there is no elevator. There are very steep stairs that are difficult to negotiate, especially with suitcases. The bathroom is tiny and the shower miniscule. The night desk clerk was incredibly annoying. I requested our boarding passes for our flight the next day. She did do that, but with it came a patronizing lecture on how to get to the airport, when I should get there, etc., ignoring the fact that I have done this trip many times. There seemed to be no insulation between our ceiling and the room above us; it was very noisy at night.

Servicen var helt fantastisk. Dem som jobbade i receptionen var alltid trevliga, och när jag hade låst in mitt nyckelkort i hotellrummet var det inga problem att få ett nytt! Rummet var stort för att vara ett hotell i London. Det blev lite krångligt att dem inte har någon hiss, då jag hade en stor, tung väska. Dessutom var frukosten inte någon hit, men hotellet ligger bara en minut från flera bra frukostställen. The Cardiff Hotel är det bästa hotellet jag har bott på i London hittills.

Väldigt bra beläget med närhet till tunnelbana. Rena rum. Frukosten var sådär. Frukosten stängde redan vid 09:00 på vardagarna och 09:30 på helgerna.

Location

Location is good. Near to Paddington station and restaurants around the corner. Staff is friendly. The room is small. When we opened the bathroom door, it will knocked at the bed. One of the mattress was too soft. No lift in this hotel. Need to take stairs to upper floors. So don’t bring big and heavy luggage.Breakfast is ok. Everyday is the same but the timing is not good.... only from 7 to 9 am.
