10/10 Excellent
"Thistle Hyde Park is a great hotel for the traveller that is seeking a little quiet within the wonderful city centre. With access to transit - the tube is incredibly close, along with amazing restaurants and pubs, Thistle Hyde Park is the place to be. Kensington Palace is only steps away through Hyde Park. Great location, great rooms."

"We had a wonderful stay at Bob W Hyde Park and were very pleased with the overall experience. The hotel was comfortable, clean and welcoming. There was a minor issue during our stay, but what really impressed us was how quickly and professionally the hotel handled it. The staff responded immediately and resolved the matter in a very satisfactory manner. Their prompt and attentive approach made a real difference and showed how much they care about their guests.

Lancaster Hall Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Loved our stay here. Felt safe, room was small as pictured but had everything that we needed and the layout was well thought-through in terms of mirrors and electrical outlets for hairstyling etc. Loved the Lavazza espresso machine and complimentary water bottles & cookies. Great neighbourhood close to Paddington station. Gave a neutral rating for Amenities because we didn’t explore them, just slept in the room. The staff was kind and helpful when I told them that my bag had been stolen from the train on the way there. Expensive, but everything in London is. Would stay again for the right price!"

Mitre House Hotel

Mitre House Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"We have stayed several times at the Mitre. Very old building - rooms are very small. But there is an elevator! Which is the slowest one on the planet. There is hot tea in reception and the breakfast hasn't changed in several years. Note to American travelers - washcloths are not provided in most European countries. Bring your own. The Mitre is about 10 minute walk to Paddington train station. The owners are very nice and helpful. I highly recommend this hotel."
