Top Science Museum Hotel Reviews

Bluedaws Private Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I've been here two times now and every time it has been very good. convenient location only a few blocks from Paddington station and the main stretch to Hyde park. The rooms are very clean and tidy but the best thing about the rooms and I can't state this enough is the good air ventilation, no warm stuffy rooms, we even got a balcony the first round. Breakfast is probably most people's favourite, they have a clean dining area which was good for talking to other people, plus when you order the staff bring food to you not even 3 minutes later. How good is that! The staff are some the kindest you'll ever meet, if you have the chance have a nice chat with them. Now for the cons these are mostly nitpicking. the amenities weren't the best having no tv, hair-dryer and kettle set is unfortunate but I think if you're in your room watching tv are you really having a holiday? Also I don't really count the kettle as if you ask for one they are nice enough to provide one. I think for this price and everything that is provided. breakfast, Nice clean room and this excellent location this is a steal."
