On arrival after an easy walk from Paddington Station, Janos greeted us and set the stage for a wonderful stay at this smaller, well-located hotel. Janos was an excellent source of information for our stay. All the staff is nice- The breakfast lady, and Domenica at our final day. There are updated bathrooms, but in a tiny Victorian original footprint. Everything is clean.The beds are double only in a double room, but you have high ceilings and plaster moldings.It is easy to get anywhere in the city by using the Paddington Metro location and 8 minute walk to Hyde Park. Hotels in London are outrageous prices, but this is a good value.We plan to return.
