Convenient to move around. Nice apartment and would like to recommend others to book this. The team was fast in replying to the message. Requested for late check out and it was delivered. Thank you 1. sound of the train.
- Barry (5/5): Passable -
- Dada052 (9/5): Superb - Accommodation our expectations, we were traveling with family and friends and this one met everything we needed for our stay. Handing over the keys and communication was very helpful and prompt. The apartment is on the 4th floor with elevator. It should be pointed out that there is a subway line under the house and a huge opening where you can see the subway going by. We didn't experience any noise though as we all slept fantastically in the beds of the apartment. The kitchen equipment was so everything a family needs. The apartment was clean, except that the carpets in the rooms were not well vacuumed.
- Izham (10/5): Great location and great value for money. - Close to train stations, shops, and restaurant. The place was clean and comfortable for us, a group of 7 adults. Highly recommended.
- Warren (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lucienne (8/5): Very good - Great location, 10 minutes walk to Paddington station. Hyde Park is within walking distance. The apartment we were given is located on the fourth floor and is served with a lift. It is clean, spacious, bright, airy and well-equipped. Local amenities, pubs, and restaurants are nearby. The service staff are very responsive. Note that if you’re sensitive to noise, you can hear the trains from Paddington station, that pass below the building, but this did not affect us much.
- Laura (8/5): Perfect location for wonder wonderland. - The house number wasn’t easy to find. And you didn’t tell us about he keen side lock box to collect keys The lights “blew” and went out. No kitchen light after the first night. Myhe lost didn’t spelt on our departure dsy
- Elisabeth (8/5): Very good -
- Sami (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mohammed (9/5): Will book again if come to London!! - Good location, very clean, prompt replies to the messages. It would have been nice if windows would have double glaze 😉
- Derek (7/5): Good -
- Tanya (1/5): Bad - I paid for two nights via booking.com. I then received details from the proprietor on how to enter the property on the morning of my arrival via WhatsApp. (They had requested I communicate with them that way)
I travelled up to London on the train, followed the check in instructions and entered the property at 4pm. I then received a message on WhatsApp to say my booking had been cancelled as they had double booked with Airbnb and I had to leave. The proprietor became extremely verbally aggressive with me when I said I had already checked in. He also said he would not refund me and I would have to sort that out with booking.com. He would not let me talk and talked over me. I became extremely upset.
I called booking.com and they tried calling the proprietor but they did not answer. They then emailed the proprietor and asked me to wait 45 minutes. I waited an hour feeling very anxious that the proprietor would arrive (I was a woman alone) and I left the apartment at 7pm. I booked another place in London at great expense. I am still trying to get a refund. Feeling very let down by both the proprietor and booking.com.
The proprietor sent me a message after I left to say I could stay but this was after he had shouted at me and made me feel very uncomfortable and it was already too late.
I use booking.com a lot and have always had good experiences but this was truly awful.
- Muhammad (3/5): Unfortunately, when I reached out for assistance, the property did not provide any viable solutions, and my request for - I recently stayed at CHARMING APARTMENT By HYDE PARK and was extremely disappointed by the numerous issues encountered, which significantly affected the comfort and quality of my stay.
1. **Noise Levels**: Despite being on the 4th floor, the apartment failed to provide any sound insulation from external noise. The constant noise from nearby train operations made it impossible to have a peaceful night's sleep.
2. **Mechanical Disturbances**: There was an intermittent drilling-like noise, possibly from the heater or pumps, which occurred every 10 minutes and was quite disturbing.
3. **Privacy Concerns**: The shower window lacks adequate coverage, compromising privacy, especially in the evenings. It’s unsettling to feel exposed in one's temporary living space.
4. **Maintenance Issues**: The apartment's general maintenance was subpar. Broken bathroom door handles and non-functional toilet exhaust fans were just some of the problems that shouldn't be present at any hospitality establishment.
5. **Lack of Basic Amenities**: The absence of blackout curtains or any form of window coverage was a significant oversight that impacted my ability to rest due to the bright early morning light.
- Chris (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dr (9/5): London home for tourists - The location was prime.
Very close to tube.
Also gardens
Good apartment for a family.
Well equipped kitchen.
Prompt resolution of minor glitches.
The staff, though we did not meet personally, helpful on phone. Would have been great if they also provide a parking space
- Samar (8/5): Very good - Apartment was clean and had everything needed from towels to kitchen utensils. Very bright and spacious.
- Pattariya (9/5): Superb -
- Rémy-pierre (9/5): Perfect apartment for a family trip - - great location
- spacious apartment and bedrooms
- equipped kitchen
- early and self check-in - sound isolation
- Jennifer (10/5): Excellent - The check in process was exceptional. There was a check in video sent to us in advance and we were also given permission to drop our bags off before our check in time. This is just perfect for families who need a stress free option You will get a little noise from the tube but not enough to disturb your sleep so isn’t too much of a concern
- Pasadena (10/5): Exceptional - The place is clean and close to station
- Mogharbel (10/5): Perfect - Everything was amazing , three bathrooms ( one without shower ) and all are clean with water hoses ( sha66af ). The train was only loud for a bit but it stops at around 12 at night so it doesn’t affect sleep at all. The sofa bed is very big and comfortable. The check in and check out is very easy and simple and the location was so close to central by metro and there was the main station Paddington and Lancaster to get anywhere. Mr Ronnie is a very good host who’s very attentive and made sure everything was good.
- Hazlina (10/5): Awesome - Everything. From the staff (Mr. Ronni) who was very attentive. The property is very clean, they have all the facilities including lift, close to local amenities and location is superb too, near paddington station which you can take train Elizabeth line direct from Heathrow Airport, Hyde Park and Bayswater. none
- Samer (7/5): Good - Central location . Close to paddington , there’s alot to do in the area. Clean apartment , if you are not too sensitive about old wood and mold in the bathroom but that’s standard for London. Friendly communication. We were satisfied. Nada
- Amy (7/5): Good - Location worked well. Very expensive for very basic accommodation.
- Fairuzah (8/5): Very good -
- Laura (9/5): Superb - Great location, paddington underground less then 10 min walk
- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sabina (10/5): Excellent location, check-in/out, spacious & clean - The flat is perfectly located in Paddington, a 10-minute walk from the Tube and the ride to central London is anyway 5 to 10 minutes.
The check in and out, as well as all the information about the flat before and during the stay were the best I‘ve ever experienced. Everything flowed smoothly! The beds were very comfortable and the shower reasonably modern and big. If you’re very sensitive to noise, you may hear the trains from the Paddington station. I was not annoyed by that and slept like a baby in the very comfortable bed.
- Xin (2/5): It is not worth the money! - The location is fantastic, especially being close to Paddington Station and Hyde Park. The kitchen and bedrooms are very spacious. The place is stocked with many essentials. - The carpets and the bathroom tiles are extremely dirty. The windows are broken, so they are very difficult to open.
- The sound of the trains are very loud and clear, as the windows have no sound proofing.
- Walking in, the toilet is broken in the first washroom on the left. Also, there is no where to hang a towel for that washroom.
- The living room is fine, aside from the broken clock and broken light bulbs.
- On the right in the kitchen, the boards covering the bottom of the dishwasher have fallen off and the kitchen counter is broken in a few places. The garbage can has no power.
- Among the first set of rooms on the left, the hallway light is broken.
- The fan in that area’s small bathroom is broken, so places like the door and shelves have moulding issues. Also, the lowest temperature for the shower is extremely hot, and the shower head leaks water and will drip non stop. The bathroom is designed poorly and it feels suffocating being in there.
- For the first bedroom on the right, the backboard is peeling and the closets are rundown. The light in the room lacks cover.
- For the second bedroom in that area, the table is in a horrible condition, and there is a small window where light from the bathroom can shine through. Also, the mattress is uneven and the headboard is peeling. Moreover, there is a lack of nightstand.
- For the en-suite at the far left end of the living room, the hallway light is also broken.
- For the bathroom in the en-suite, the toilet seat smashes down whenever it is let go, and when showering, the water splashes all over the window. The design of the washroom is better compared to the other ones but still very underwhelming.
- For the bedroom in the en-suite, the bed moves around very easily, and the headboard is peeling. There is also a lack of nightstand on the right hand side.
- Ainon (10/5): Will come back here again. - The apartment was spacious, very friendly and clean. Its so convenient n they make it so easy and simple to check in n check out. No hassle at all. Ronni is very helpful. Almost none
- Benjamas (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent place to stay London. The location is great near the tube station such as Lancaster, Bayswater, Queens Way, and Paddington station or buses. The apartment is clean, spacious, and has everything that we need. The service is very good. Nice and safe area. Good for family . Highly recommend 👌

- Jones (7/5): A great location, easy to walk to Hyde Park, local shops close by, tube station just up the road . G - Location was excellent, bedrooms were spacious, beds were comfy. Bedding was poor quality , cheap pillows and doonas, mould on shower floor, detract from its otherwise very good rating.
- Tira (8/5): Very good -
- Cieri (7/5): Pleasant and comfortable - The Location! It’s near the Underground.. about 5min walk. Nice neighborhood and good space, size of rooms for London. The train noise underground.
- Omaya (5/5): location was great it’s a shame about the cleanliness of the apartment - location and space / accommodation for a family
washing machine it wasn’t clean eg: rubbish appeared from under the bed.
kitchen was very dirty including the cooking equipment, not that we were cooking. The kettle had lime scale in it.
the shower drain wasn’t draining so water was overflowing on to the floor
it was very hot there was no air conditioning
