Excellent location only a couple mins, easy flat walk to Paddington station. We had a king bed located on the ground floor which concerned us at first but the street was mostly quiet so sleep was generally fine (could be noisy when people were arriving/leaving as you’re right beside the main desk so avoid if this is irritating). Bed was very comfortable, coffee machine supplied was much appreciated! Room was very clean, though a couple of minor maintenance issues could be tended to easily (mirror light not working, drape unhooked on one side allowing light in, spout of tap diffuser needed replacing as water sprays everywhere). Staff were lovely and friendly and initially we were happy to rate 5 stars until the last night when we were woken at 3am by the young guy at the desk on the phone. He continued for an hour on speaker phone until we had enough and my husband went out to ask him to keep it down. He did, slightly, but continued on and then started playing games/watching YouTube (?). Really rude and affected our day as we flew to another country exhausted. Aside from this staff member rate would recommend Sonder

Not a hotel, false advertisement. The room is so small you can’t even comfortably have luggage in the room. Shower and hair dryer broken. Wouldn’t come back or recommend. Luckily we only stayed 1 night, but this is not an actual hotel so this should be advertised. There was no real check in/check out.

The location is convenient for sightseeing, with Paddington station a block away and plenty of restaurants and coffee shops around. The hotel itself is decently renovated but in an old cramped building. Slow elevator, narrow corridors, and no amenities or common spaces beyond reception. The room was very small but well kept. It was a little awkward to share a room because the bathroom is just behind a glass divider instead of a separate room, offering little privacy. The app never worked for unlocking the front door so I had to use the key code every time, and neither the app or code worked for the room door but I was promptly given a physical key by the staff. Overall, you get what you pay for - this is a good option if you need a clean and reasonable place in central London, and don’t plan on spending much time in the room.

Avoid at all costs, pictures are completely misleading, upon arrival to my shoebox of a room I had to clear out the fridge as someone’s food was still in it, there was paint falling off the walls, the bathroom sink was stained, there was yellowing on the walls, the air con puffing out dust when turned on as it clearly hadnt been cleaned in a long time, the radiator thermostat fell off so when the heating was put on in the building full blast I couldn’t turn the radiator off, having your room convert to a sauna was an experience. I burned myself trying to fix it because there was no one on site maintenance wise to do so, then to top it off there was no hot water on the last night. Several guests complained about their rooms but couldn’t be relocated, our friend staying in a separate room left to stay in another hotel. The front desk staff were nice but that being the only positive from a £750 stay feels like I have been robbed, when notified off the above they have taken it as “additional learning”

Lovely place. For two adults the room was a tight fit. The bathroom was built into the room which takes up a bit of space. The bed was also rock hard and with pillows that were super flat. THAT SAID the staff were lovely when we saw them and the location is great. I would qualify this as a “do it yourself” type hotel. If you are looking for room service, etc, you probably want to look to a larger hotel. But location and for the price it was great. (But seriously, prepare your back for that mattress.)

Good value(for London).Clean,modern. Good location
Check in and access is simple with the access codes. There is a front desk with helpful staff. My room was on the 4th floor. clean and modern. Very small room, some might say ‘cosy’. However it was very well equipped with fridge, coffee machine, hairdryer. Lots of outlets and usb charging points. The shower had great pressure. The shampoo/conditioner supplied was good quality and smelt great. The hotel is very close to Paddington station with multiple restaurants, cafes, bars within one block. I would stay at the Sonder again.

Avoid this hotel. The heat was broken in our room, so they moved us to a room where the heat worked but the shower didn’t drain and was unusable. It took four days to fix (4/5ths of our stay without a functioning shower!) The hotel would not give us a refund or reduction in the rate. Total crap. Never going back.

Perfectly situated adjacent to Paddington and nearby Hyde Park. Redefines efficiency in the tiniest room, but you didn’t come to London to stay in the room did you? Elevator doesn’t go all the way up, might not be best accommodations for senior travelers.

Much room for improvement with maintenance
On the plus side: - excellent location for Paddington - Newly renovated - well priced - Nespresso machine in the room - staff were lovely - spotlessly clean On the downside: - bathroom door had either broken hinges or was catching on something as it made a noise like mound nails down a call board when opened or closed. Not ideal when the other person goes to the bathroom in the middle of the night - room was very warm and the window barely opened. When it was then opened it was a game of luck and physics to get it to balance just so so that it stayed open - due to the issues with the window, we turned the air conditioning on - which then proceeded to beep incessantly. When mentioning this is at checkout we were told that it was broken in all rooms and we should have been told not to use it. Such a shame that for somewhere that’s been so recently renovated there are so many small but very irritating issues.

Room to small for our needs but a lot of ppluses.
This hotel is a fine hotel but I did not get the sense of how small the room was. A couple with two suitcases was too cramped. No chair to sit on at all. That said - if you are traveling with less baggage or you get a bigger room than the double, this is clean, quiet and helpful staff. The bed was good as well. Convenient to Paddington.

property was conveniently located at Paddington station which made travel super easy. No room service was included in the price, but you could get clean towels, & supplies as needed at no extra cost. They told me I could get clean sheets too if I wanted, but I'd need to put them on. Bed was very firm and pillows flat - would have been more enjoyable with a bed topper and fluffier pillows.

I enjoyed my stay here. The only issue was the room was very hot the heating air conditioning unit was not functioning. Also the refrigerator was not working. The hotel did make an attempt to fix the refrigerator but it still failed to work. Room was extremely small but I had expect this when I booked the room. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
