- Roger (4/5): Small hotel in prime Paddington location - Great location small room
- Robert (3/5): - it was impossible to open the windows which were very dirty !!! the cabinet under the sink was broken The hotel needs to be Renovated!!!!! The price for this double room should be £ 49.99!!!

- Kausar (8/5): very comfortable stay and such a nice friendly staff! - the location is very nice and the rooms are clean it was all nice
- Elim (8/5): -
- BÜŞRA (10/5): Muhteşem bir otel - Tesissin konumu ve çalışanlar çok tatlıydı, odalar temiz ve sıcaktı
- Cristina (9/5): - Buona postazione per girare in città. Camera pulita e staff disponibile. Bagno molto piccolo (molto inglese) colazione non servita in struttura, anche se sulla strada ci sono diversi posti per farla.
- Cristifonta (6/5): - Es muy confortable, pero sin lujos, creo que es caro, pero la ubicación compensa. Sencillo, sin pretensiones. Calidad precio no me convence
- Ghiglioni (8/5): -
- Shellie (10/5): I will definitely consider staying here again! - The staff were extremely accommodating and helpful. The bathroom temperature was a bit cold because of the large window.
- Dana (2/5): Caveat Emptor - Front desk clerk was very nice, there late at night and early morning. Helpful and accommodating. Communication was good prior to arrival. Location proximity to Paddington Station. Clean sheets and towels were about the only clean thing there. Good water pressure in sink and toilet. Temperature was comfortable for a 4th floor room. Difficult access from lift around 2 corners, down 3 steps in a VERY narrow "hall" to room door. Clearly used to be the attic/servant's quarters and had hardly been updated since. Arrived to housekeeping sitting on floor outside room, sorting towels and sheets on the floor from adjacent closet. Mattress was absolutely abysmal, the worst I've ever tried to sleep on. It was not stable when sitting, much less lying down. It was thin, old and completely worn out. It had to have been over 30 years old. Mattress foundation hardly could support 2 average adults. Pillows had seen better days as well. Ripped, burned curtains. Filthy windows. Crusty TV remote with missing battery cover. Stained furniture. Microscopic bathroom size with ill-functioning cabinetry. Afraid to try the shower. Bathroom door would not close properly. Only 1 chair for a "double" room. Barely enough space to turn around in.
- Jason (5/5): -
- Petra (7/5): - Die Lage ist unschlagbar. Die Herren am Empfang sind ausgesprochen freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Zimmer und die Einrichtung gehören dringend renoviert. Das Bad ist extrem klein. Die Bettwäsche und Handtücher waren sehr sauber.
- Randi (7/5): Comfortable and clean - Good Location for exploring London The room we had was quite small
The bathroom could have had more wall hangars for towels and clothes.
- Stefan (9/5): -
- MASAKO (6/5): -
- Michaela (8/5): -
- Paul (3/5): Don’t recommend the suite - Location The suite we stayed in was unacceptably run down and the entrance shabby. Shower system was impossible to get to work so we forgoed showers.
- Tatiana (10/5): Super séjour - Très bien, bien placé et personnels très gentil
- Debora (7/5): -
- Anthony (7/5): A good hotel close to Paddington station and restaurants - The location is excellent; being within 5 minutes walk to Paddington station.
The room was comfortable and very clean.
The staff were really friendly and helpful.
There are good restaurants nearby. We would have preferred a room on a higher floor but given that we had to book on the day of arrival and arrived late in the day we accepted a basement room who’d had little daylight.
- Online (10/5): - La ubicación Todo excelente
- Faraji (6/5): - The location The facilities did not meet my expectations
- Fakir mashfiquzzaman (10/5): -
- Cinthya Regla (3/5): Buena ubicación pero muy viejo y sucio - Ubicación Muy viejo y las chicas de limpieza haciendo ruido, tirando puertas y riéndose súper alto todas las mañanas
- Peter (8/5): The hotel is perfect for a short stay very close to Paddington station bars and restaurants, friendly staff and the room - The location
- samik Kumar (8/5): Good for short stay - Location No breakfast facilities
- Jarle H (5/5): -
- Evgeniia (9/5): -
- Cedric (6/5): Suffisant mais pas exceptionnel - Suite grande (pour Londres) mais petite (pour le reste du monde)
L'emplacement, proche de la Gare de Paddington
La rue calme Le lit, inconfortable
Le manque d'accessoires (pas de gel douche)
La salle de bain, petite
La salle de bain, à refaire (vieille, pommeau de douche en fin de vie, joints à refaire...)
- Omar (10/5): -
- Cecilio (8/5): Tranquilo, cómodo, sin lujos y económico - Todo bien! Tranquilo.
- Karadimova (8/5): Would recommend for overnight / short stay - The place is super close to Paddington and it’s a great hotel for a short stay. I agree with other comments that the rooms might be a bit small for big suitcases but if you’re traveling with a backpack it’s perfect! Had a great sleep as well. Everything was super comfortable, the room and bathroom clean and the reception staff friendly. I most definitely recommend. And it was an amazing value for money.
- Alice (6/5): - Posizione perfetta
- Daniela (7/5): -
- TOSHIYUKI (7/5): 古い施設なので、いろいろと小さな問題はあるが、立地の良さ フロントの おじさんの 優しい対応で十分満足できた。 - とにかく Paddington 駅から 近くて いろいろな場所に 移動するのに 便利だった。
ベットは 寝心地が 良かった。
従業員が 数人いたが フロントの おじさんが 優しかった。
(いろいろ 小さな問題は あったが フロントの おじさんが 優しく対応してくれた。) エアコンのリモコンの調子が悪かった。(フロントに電話して、直してもらった。)
初日、家族4人で宿泊したのに当初タオルが2人分しかなかった。(フロントに電話して2人分追加で持ってきてもらった。)2日目からは4人分しっかり準備してくれていた。
冷蔵庫が無かった。

- Ademary (7/5): -
- Deanna (10/5): - Location and room
- Carola (10/5): -
- Marwan (8/5): Pleasant stay and will probably be going again - Conveniently located close to the tube station and also walking distance to Bayswater and Queensway. Staff were very friendly and welcoming, specially Nader in the reception and the veiled housekeeping lady. Nothing, room was a bit tight but that was expected anyway in London
- Iuliia (10/5): - Great destination! Very thin walls and perfect audibility
- John (10/5): Convenient, clean with friendly staff. Stayed in single room for two nights perfect! - Location convenience Could have had a suitcase stand in the room as I had to put on floor otherwise all good!
- Flavia (5/5): Only the location is a positive in this hotel - The location is great, but that's the only good thing about this hotel. Oh, and they changed the towels (even though in modern times we're used to being asked, for sustainability reasons; then again, the towels were so cheap that changing was inevitable). Where should I start? The hotel is gloomy, outdated, and doesn’t feel clean. The room is extremely small, the air conditioning barely works, and there are no instructions on how to use it. It was very hot inside, and the window wouldn’t open at all.
The bathroom looks incredibly old—like something out of an elderly relative’s house. There’s nowhere to even place a toothbrush on the sink. The toiletries and towels are very cheap; I honestly hadn’t seen toiletries of this quality in years. The carpet, both in the room and throughout the hotel, is worn down and looks like it hasn’t been properly cleaned in ages. The same goes for the curtains, which seem like they haven’t been washed in years. The lights were so unreliable—some working, others not—that we half expected it to be the ghosts of past guests playing tricks.
The reception staff seemed disengaged: no smile, no greeting, barely any acknowledgment of our presence (the cleaning lady, however, was kind). When I asked whether breakfast was included, the man at reception simply said, “No breakfast. There are coffee shops on the street.” After seeing the room, I was honestly relieved not to have breakfast there.
But none of this compares to the beds. The mattresses were so uneven and worn out that you would roll into dips and almost get stuck. They genuinely felt decades old—lumpy to the point of feeling like they were filled with hay. I have never slept on mattresses in such poor condition.
It almost became a joke—but paying nearly €1,000 for a double and a triple room for two nights and ending up in a hotel like this certainly wasn’t.
- PIETRO (10/5): -
- Dragana (10/5): - It was a good price, nice staff, good location.
- Laura (6/5): - molto comodo per la posizione camera poco attrezzata, senza prese europee e usb. bagno piccolo, decisamente essenziale
- Onwukwe (9/5): In summary, it was OK. I ll recommend it to a friend - There was no breakfast. The location is very ok The breakfast. There was no breakfast or we didn't know of it. Would have love to have my breakfast where I passed the night
- gringobart (9/5): - Comfortable beds, close to the train and tube stations, restaurants and the park
- Lauriane (9/5): - The receptionnists were very nice, the room comfortable and the location is perfect! About 5 minutes walk from Paddington station. I had a small issue with the window that was not closing correctly, so I was hearing outside noises, but it's really minor issue.
- Daniele (7/5): - Posizione ottima, a 5 minuti a piedi dalla stazione di Paddington e vicinissimo ad Hyde Park
- Sarah (8/5): -
- Zvab (8/5): -
- Astrid (8/5): Zweckmäßig , sauber und nett - Die Lage Das Bad war so klein, dass man nicht wirklich auf der Toilette sitzen konnte. Die Beleuchtung war schwach und grün …
- Ute (7/5): Super Lage und britischer Charme - Perfekte Lage ein paar Minuten vom Bahnhof Paddington zu Fuß, charmantes altes Gebäude. Wasserkocher, Tee und Kaffee auf dem Zimmer. Das war sogar etwas größer als erwartet. Die Tücken eines alten Gebäudes - undichte Fenster und andere Kleinigkeiten.
- Kayleigh (5/5): Average but has potential to be so much better - Ideal location and price for 1 night stay Pillows were like rock, shower had a constant drip and there was so much noise with my room being under reception could hear footsteps and people moving around all night 😔
- merrilyn (10/5): A very pleasant stay in a lovely area with good transport - staff were excellent and helped me a lot. My room had a lovely window overlooking the street. There were plenty of nice restaurants nearby to have breakfast and dinner. It is very close to Paddington station so was excellent for the underground. It also had a lift that was helpful to get my luggage upstairs. The stairs were safe to go up and down and had good handrails,

- Colin (1/5): Glad we were only there for one night - Location was the only real positive Bed very small, wall to wall. Split pillowcase. Very small bathroom, with very poor small shower, access to it was very tight and once in could hardly move. Room very small couldn't open the door fully to access it as there was a cupboard behind the door.
- Mariangela Alessia (8/5): Soggiorno piacevole e ben posizionato - Ho soggiornato presso l’Hotel Edward a Paddington e nel complesso l’esperienza è stata discreta. La posizione è sicuramente il punto forte: molto comoda, ben collegata con metro e autobus e vicina a Paddington Station, utile per i collegamenti da e per l’aeroporto. Anche Hyde Park è facilmente raggiungibile ed è un parco bellissimo. Lo staff è stato molto gentile e disponibile, e ci hanno permesso di mangiare in camera o nella lobby, cosa molto apprezzata. La struttura è semplice e un po’ datata, con camere piccole ma funzionali per soggiorni brevi. La stanza era leggermente stretta per tre persone e qualche centimetro in più avrebbe aiutato a sistemare meglio le valigie. Le finestre erano leggere ma isolavano comunque bene dal freddo. Il cuscino era molto sottile, tipo “sottiletta”. Pulizia e comfort nella media. Colazione non disponibile.
- Stephan (5/5): Good location - The location was perfect, next to Paddington Station and Hyde Park. The room was not very clean (dust in the cupboard, for example), though the bathroom was clean.
Everything looked a bit old, shabby. The TV remote and two lamps didn't work at the beginning. The issue with one lamp and the remote was solves on the day I reported it though.
The rooms weree extremely small.
- Albandari (10/5): - Everything was nice , I like how Nabil helped me, I feel like a home, and sure I will come again
- Caitlin (7/5): -
- Almubrek (10/5): -
- Duffy (5/5): -
- Alison (4/5): Good location, tiny tiny room. - Good location. Tiny room. The 4 of us were quashed in with no place to put our bags. I kept bumping my elbows into the walls in the bathroom bc it was so small. No place to put wash bag. TV didn’t work properly and faced a random wall.
- Chen (4/5): סביר מינוס. לפחות מצאנו מהר חדר טווין כשהיינו במצב חירום - השירותים נראו משופצים, מעודכנים ונקיים החדר היה קטן וצפוף, החלון קטנטן, הריהוט ישן ומגעיל, השטיח מוכתם, הווילונות מגעילים.
השהות בחדר הייתה ממש לא נעימה
- Yu An (6/5): -
- Anita (10/5): -
- lisa (10/5): -
- Renato (8/5): Ottimo, tranquillo e pulito - Ottima zona, tranquilla, hotel a 2 minuti dalla metro, e tutto quello che serve a portata di mano. La struttura è decorsa anche se un po' vecchiotta. Ma rapporto qualità prezzo ottimo! Wi-fi gratuito (e sempre funzionante) bollitore con te e caffè sempre disponibili in camera. Nulla di che, la struttura e un po' vecchiotta ma per gli standard di Londra a quel prezzo non si batte
- Erkan (6/5): Good for the value but no good to stay more than one night in small room - Location Mattress was so soft and very uncomfortable room was airless couldn’t open the window . Front desk agent helped me to open the window.
- Doris (8/5): - Gute Lage nicht weit von der U-Bahn und dem Bahnhof Paddington. Pubs und Restaurants in unmittelbarer Nähe. Sauber und nette Lobby. Unser Zimmer war etwas klein und eng.
- Laura (8/5): 3 jours à Londres - La proximité avec les transports, la station Paddington (bus, train, métro) se trouve au bout de la rue. L'accueil à été rapide et la chambre prête dès le matin afin d'y déposer nos bagages. La chambre quand à elle simple mais pratique. Le seul bémol à été la fenêtre dans la chambre au niveau de l'isolation.
- Tassanat (1/5): - None
- Kimmie (8/5): I'd come back if in London. Nice location and staff. - Clean room with a walks distance to the subway.
Staff members were incredibly nice and informative. Very good service from the staff. Rooms are very small and hairdryer wasn't available. The small rooms are probably what's to be expected of such a nice location and for British standards.
- Melanie (9/5): I would recommend Hotel Edward - I stayed here when my son was in St Mary's hospital. It was very convenient and the staff were very helpful
- Nicoletta (8/5): -
- Sonia (9/5): Paefait - Emplacement idéal proche métro et bus
Confortable, chambre séparée pour notre fils
Bien équipé et propre
- Rina (10/5): - There was no toothbrush or toothpaste as part of the hygiene requirements. Those with luxurious hair should bring their own shampoo; they provide sachets. A kettle with tea, coffee, and sugar are provided in sufficient quantities. Towels and bed linens are changed daily. Thank you for the wonderful days.

- Antonio (10/5): -
- Shermin (6/5): Pleased with the cleanliness and it’s location is excellent - Location The mattresses are grossly uncomfortable and in need of replacement
- Rachel (1/5): Don't book this Hotel it's awful - Nothing the hotel was awful. The room was dirty and when I complained at asked for a refund this was refused despite the inconvenience of having to cancel my plans and go home a day earlier. Everything the hotel was shabby, my room was very dirty and grim
Their was not adequate bedding and the toilet constantly gurgled. The shower was unclean the whole experience was awful. The website has lovely photos of the hotel but this is false advertising don't be tricked. Avoid.
