Location is great. Very close to edgeward road and oxford str. Staff were very helpful. The single room is too too small. Room size was 2.5 X 3 meters. Bath room is too small also 1.5 x 2 meters. |

The location Reception staff were polite, I think they need to be more frendly. Good knowlage of the area to recomend restaurants, things to do. They need to be more proactive with the guest. They are just correct. Hospitlity makes a big difference. |

The room given at check-in was very small, but the hotel manager was very kind to upgrade us to a larger room, after our request and he even gave free breakfast for the last 3 nights. Staffs were extremely helpful. |

The hotel is conveniently situated between Paddington and Edgeware Road stations. Nice lobby, clean rooms, attentive staff. Nice flat TV in the room. Electric pot with tea supplies in the room. Good WiFi coverage. Elevator (though I did not need it). Miniscule rooms - no place for the suitcase. The door of the toilet hits the bed, no space to walk around the bed. There's a wired internet connection, but the table is too small to accommodate a laptop - luckily WiFi coverage is good. For 100+ pounds per night (without breakfast!) I'd expect more comfort. |

No service room service or facilities, as i was told by the staff, there is a pub round the corner! i was upgraded, so i would have hated to see the standard of the room that i paid £199 for? |

It was a good experience. The room was small, as expected, but tidy and comfortable. Housekeeping visited every day to change towels and restock tea-coffee. In our second floor room there was even wireless internet connection. All in all, a good choice. Internet connection speed and quality could be improved. |

The room although small was very comfortable and the bathroom was excellent. I would stay there again. Bed linen was spotless and the room was quiet. I would have liked breakfast to be included in the price of £79 per night. £15 extra to pay for breakfast I thought too much and went out locally for much less. Apart from this I really thought this a good hotel for the money. |

Free upgrade to a Club room, good quality TV and free internet reception, a decent breakfast buffet including full-cholesterol English fry-up. Room sizes generally pretty small, but that's London for you, especially at this price point. Wouldn't let me eat breakfast 20 minutes early on Sunday (leaving for a plane) because it "wasn't ready". I was looking at (and smelling!) the bacon in the serving trays! |

The location of the hotel was excellent. Very close to paddington station. The hotel was classed as 4 star, and although everything was of high quality, the room was tiny!!! It's ok for a night or two when you're just using the hotel as a base, but it was a very small room. |

Staff were very helpful, I forgot something in the room and they found it and kept it for me to retrieve Room unbelievably small. Should not be allowed by law! (Probably isn't!).It was 2.5 mt x 2! The bathroom was 2 mt by 70 cm! The bed was just stuck against the window. I had to put the coffee and tea tray on top of the closet, or there wouldn't even be any room to put my briefcase in. Absolutely unacceptable. To reach the room, you had to go through so many narrow corridors and level changes (3 steps here, 2 steps there, etc.) that to do it with two bags was a complete nightmare. I don't even want to imagine what it would be like if you were in any way challenged in your movements. |

Staff was OK although they did seem to me to be a little unexperienced. The hotel room was promoted via the internet as a "Deluxe Double room". Although the price was relatively low I have lost the trust in ordering hotel rooms via your web-site as this room was the smallest and most cramped hotel room I have ever stayed in over the last 15 years in my career and staying in London. The room was so cramped and small that you nearly could not move around without feeling. The desk in the room was so overfilled with glasses, tee pot etc etc that you could not see the desk and the only place to move it all to was the cupboard. The toilet was so small that you almost should go backwards onto the toilet. Shower cabin same. Basically a bad internet booking experience! |

Only 2 minutes from Paddington station, Hyde Park and close to Lancaster Road and Bayswater Road, this 4-star hotel has a convenient but quiet location in a private terrace. |
Superbly situated, Best Western Shaftesbury Paddington Court London is an elegant Victorian building, a 5-minute walk from the Heathrow Express Terminal at Paddington underground station. |
Just 400 metres from Paddington Station and the Heathrow Express, the Shaftesbury Premier is close to Hyde Park and has air-conditioned rooms with free broadband. |
Close to Hyde Park, Paddington Train Station and Whiteleys Shopping Centre, this hotel is a modern, well-located London base. |
