    Modern Twist The trendy "Carbon" bar attached to the hotel is free entry to residents but the drinks are really expensive! 9 quid for a vodka and coke - ouch!

    Great location, I would stay here again. I enjoyed my stay here very much. The rooms were clean with a comfortable bed and a flat screen Tv even though they were small and a little tight for two people. The bathroom was great with a standard size tub and shower, glass vanity bowl and glass entry door. The concierge staff were very knowledgeable and helpful with directions, transportation and restaurant info.The internet is very expensive but you can go across the street to a small convenience store for a better rate. There are several good restaurants in the area and fast food nearby if you like.I give this hotel a thumps up! Traveler's tip Location, Location, Location. Convenient to the Tube and buses. We took the train from Heathrow to Paddington Station and walked to the hotel. No problem.

    Unless your spending silly money they just don't want to know! Ideal place for shopping, Close to bond street, Harrods & salfridges. Close to the tube station (marble arch)

    Very Standard A standard room , small size , you have to wait half an hour to have help with handling your luggage in or out of your room , wait in lines for 15-25 minutes to check in or out and breakfast . BUT good location , clean room . Traveler's tip on saving a few bucks Try another place if you don’t get a very special rate . DO NOT use the internet too expensive . go to internet-cafes out side ( an hour for 1 pound) .

    Comfiest bed ever Make sure you get a breakfast inclusive rate like I did, or eat breakfast out. It's £18.95 otherwise which I think is ridiculously overpriced. It was OK, but certainly not worth the best part of £20!

    Hip hotel with boutique feel Hip, quiet, good sized rooms, close proximity to tube stop and shopping, and excellent service. The rooms are modern and the colours are cheerful. Stay in the executive suites if you want the feel of a cool, boutique hotel with large windows. The staff are very helpful and friendly - they make you feel at home. The gym has all new equipment and is very clean. Make sure to ask for a robe - it is only provided upon request. Also, there is WiFi and it reaches all the way to the park - get a few 24 hour WiFi cards when you check in. Hyde park is directly across the street too if you like the idea of a stroll away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Traveler's tip on saving a few bucks Pret a Manger is right next to hotel and provides healthy, cheap meals if staying on a budget. Marks and Spencers also has good eats on the cheap (it’s located about 3 blocks east on Oxford street).
