Its location by far outweighs other negative points. Its located 2 minutes walking distance from Paddington station (underground and railway services). The staff were not as friendly and helpful as I expected from Londoners. Price is a big issue. Overall it was a nice experience.

Well placed hotel, with good breakfast facility but expensive @40.00 a head The air con was hopeless in the room and it was an executive room, so it was an uncomfortable stay, I don't think we would use it again.

This is not a 3 star hotel. The general level of cleanliness in this establishment is not very high. The bedspread was quite grubby and for the entire length of our stay -3 nights- there was a bathroom towel on the floor just outside our room. The reception staff were polite enough, in their own way, but a request to... More

We stayed at the Kinsgway for 2 nights as part of a theatre break. It was in a very quiet location with parking nearby. The hotel was luxurious but had a very relaxed atmosphere - it didn't matter what you were wearing (within reason!) you didn't feel out of place. The breakfasts included everything you could think of and the... More
