Crownwall Hotel

Excellent Position of the Hotel close to Paddington Station. The cost of the hotel was lower than other ones in Zone 1.

Rooms and bathroom - as said previously - are extremely small, It can work if hosts are flexible and plan to spend most of the time in the city. It can become problematic if you need to use the room for a long period of time . When we arrived on Saturday 17th at 3.00 am at Liverpool Street, we phoned the reception to ask which night bus was operating towards Paddington. The answer of the guy was " I am not paid to provide guidance". I hope the management of the hotel take actions against such unprofessional behaviour, which violates all basic rules of courtesy the hotel personnell should have with guests and foreign turists. Other than that, the other personnell of the hotel was ok.

The Crownwall is convenient to tube stations at two locations. It was clean and a good value compared to other London hotels of the same class.

clean, quiet, good location

Location was good: close to Paddington Station, Hyde Park, and convenience stores.

The room and bathroom were so tiny that they were really dangerous; the bathroom was precisely 27 inches x 81 inches, there were about 8 inches of space between the bed and the wall, and there was no space to put a suitcase on the floor other than in the passageway to the door or bathroom. Reviews mentioned the small rooms, but I had not idea exactly how small! I could not recommend this hotel.

location, cleanliness and friendly hotel staff

small shower area ( but v clean)

The staff were very friendly and the room was clean and tidy

The room was very small and you could hear people outside in the early hours

Proximity to Oxford Circle shopping area and Hyde Park

No AC in the room

The location is very sentral. Clean sheets and comfortable beds after hours of sightseeing and shopping.

Very small bathroom

I liked the proximity to restaurants Paddington station and Hyde park. The hotel was in a quiet streeet, which after a hectic day of exploring in London was quitesoothing to come back to.

Im afraid I found the room very cramped with almost nowhere to make the tea! No outlook and a bit stuffy at night. The shower curtain needed a good wash.

sehr gute Lage - als Ausgangspunkt füe eine Städtereise sehr geeignet.

Room was tidied everyday. Location was good but any hotel near a subway is just as good. Had booked this as a surprise and felt like I had spent alot of money on this hotel compared to other options available.

On arrival,the person at reception didnt tell us anything about the hotel. Eg.what time breakfast was or where to go for it, what the hotel had to offer and no welcome pack in the room.So didnt know when towels etc would be changed etc.You couldnt hang around at the hotel as it had nothing to offer to stay part from the bed.Had asked for a double room and ended up with a twin room.Breakfast was toast or conflakes. One of us had to sit on the bed while the other moved around the room.Next time I go to London, I will book a chain hotel which are cheeper and know what to expect.

Great location close to public transportation and sights in London. Clean, reasonably good breakfast.

The rooms are very small. The street below is loud, so it's hard to sleep past 7am if you keep your window open.

The hotel staff was friendly and there was a mini kitchen area in the room with microwave, which was very convenient. The hotel is also situated very near Paddington underground station.

The room had no fan/air conditioner and can get a little hot in a summer afternoon.
