The staff did not understand English very well. No elevator, extremely steep stairs. My room was in the basement. Rooms & Bathrooms - terribly small and dirthy; Breakfast - poor (consisting of bread, jam and yellow cheese only). Location - close to Paddington Station (10 min. by walk) and Мarble Arche (30 min. by walk) - the only nice thing... More

We booked 2 double rooms, were allocated one on the 4th & one on the 5th floors & the lift was broken. (over 70 steps to the 4th, over 90 to the 5th). When we arrived, they required photo ID for all guests, we had only travelled from Wiltshire! Luckily we had driving licenses & various membership cards between the... More

My wife and I booked the Prince Edward Hotel online a few days before arriving in London. We wanted to stay in Paddington, so we came across hundreds of hotels and this one popped up and looked to be very good in the photos. The price was about 40 Australian dollars more than want we anticipated paying but we thought... More

Buyer beware! Please listen to the majority of reviews, which correctly describe the appalling standard of this "hotel". We booked this hotel to allow us to spend an extra couple of days in london. Upon checking in, we had to climb 8 flights of grubby stairs, to scour the maze of rooms, unaided to reach our cell. Unable to find... More

Me and my 2 friends had read some of the reviews of this hotel before we arrived and were expecting a dank, dirty, noisy hotel with tiny rooms and unpleasant staff. However we were pleasantly surprised. The staff were friendly and our room was a perfectly adequate size, enough room for the luggage of 3 teenage girls. Admittedly the hotel... More

Do not stay in this hotel even if you're on a tight budget. The rooms are very old, almost crumbling and dirty. There is no isolation, so you can hear everything happening in the corridors. On the first night we were put in a basement room that was next to an Indian restaurant. It was so old and dirty and... More
