Modern hotel in a good area near buses and tubes, other museums and a pub where random chavy men go for there pints shouting and blocking up the day. Good views of inner courtyard and gorgeous breakfasts with bacon and fresh fruit, as example. Welcoming and very welcoming staff at reception desk and breakfast, compact standard twin room.

By and large, it was reasonably priced place with incredibly welcoming staff at reception desk and breakfast. The location for London was lovely, next to Garfunkels restaurant next door, numerous restaurants, cafes and Hyde park, the Natural history museum, the V and An and the science museum, which saved money and time in transport. Also, a world-famous museum was 1 km away, perfectly reachable.

We stayed here for 4 nights and loved the place. Everything was really good, including fairly friendly and superfriendly staff at reception desk and breakfast. The view of courtyard was particularly good, as well as very central location next to transport & Earl Court, Paddington and an exhibition. Cafe Brownie Box located 1 km away was a nice surprise. The English breakfast was marvellous.
