Not a great experience
Nice enough hotel nice communal areas however room small and neither the hotel or hotels.com informed us building work was going on. We had scaffolding outside our window asked to move rooms but told no, this was very noisy on Friday so do not reccomend if travelling long hours and want day time rest. the sofa bed is also made up on 2 single beds with metal inbetween not ideal for young children. We messaged the hotel twice prior to arrival to request a cot but not cot when we arrived. The pool is not warm at all. All the guests were saying you can’t stay in it for even 15 minutes. Only one tea bag in the room. Breakfast crowded and not enough tables or staff to manage it. Also the access is not ideal. It’s a 5 min walk to get a taxi again with you children and luggage etc not ideal. Informed reception about our disappointment and they were nothing but defensive

Nice hotel conveniently located 5 minute walk to Paddington Tube station. Nice bar/restaurant with very nice staff. They are going through renovations but the makeshift checkin center/desk was convenient and nice. We will probably stay there again because the Heathrow express goes directly to Paddington, making the transfer to and from Heathrow really easy.

The Foyer and spa of the hotel are lovely and staff polite. The rooms are tired and need modernising. No usb points and strange toilet separate from rest of bathroom situation with no sink next to toilet so you have to walk through your room to wash your hands.

We had a great stay, our room faced the train track but we never heard the trains. Our room could use updating like new carpet but everything felt clean and accommodating. Breakfast was good, would have loved a non dairy milk option but otherwise lots of options for food. The construction only happens during the day and we were always out to see the city so we never noticed it. I would stay here again.

Overall it was a good stay for 2 nights. Carpets are stained, which that's why I didn't leave a higher rating on cleanliness. Staff don't always greet you when you arrive, it seems a more impersonal hotel.
