This property was in a great location; very walkable to Paddington Station from where you can get anywhere in London. The staff were superb, the hotel was clean and very modern and the rooms quite spacious and comfortable. The area around the hotel was very quiet but within a short distance there were lots of lively dining spots. The breakfast had lots of wonderful choices for all tastes. We would definitely return to this hotel for future stays in London.

Slightly out of the way for our itinerary but that was our choice. Room was for 2 adults 1 child and room was only made up for 2 (happens in a lot of places and was quickly rectified). However, building work going on at the hotel, scaffolding up and some noise. When we got to the room, could not see out of windows due to scaffolding and covering. This was not explained on Expedia site or communicated by the reception staff at check in. We were glad we arrived on a Friday, as not sure who would be outside your window waking up on a working day!

Our second stay here. Would have greatly appreciated being told there was extensive renovations being carried out to the hotel exterior. Our view from our room (previously fabulous) was of scaffolding and tarp and tools. Nothing else at all. Very very disappointing. It was a special birthday surprise trip for my husband.

The hotel is currently under construction- they start drilling and banging very early. They don’t verbally mention this upon check-in. It is a small blurb on their welcome letter. You have to book a time to use the pool and it closes very early ( not convenient or spontaneous). Not good value for the money because of the above reasons. Otherwise, it is a good location and clean room.

There were several problems with the hotel. First, when booking with Expedia we were not told that the hotel was under construction. Our room was not very clean. The bathroom sink took about 20 minutes to drain after each use. There were only 2 usable electric outlets which does not work well for family with many devices to charge. I would not stay again.

The only reason I gave 4 out of 5 stars for Property Conditions & Facilities is because the outside of the hotel was under construction. And that’s only because I think I should have been notified prior to my stay. Otherwise, everything else was lovely. Constantly clean and easy to navigate layout. And though I had limited interaction with staff, any time I did speak to anyone, they were all great!

This property bis easy for access to Underground and Railways with a short walk of 10mins. The surroundings are attractive with the grand Union Canal. The staff there are helpful and the breakfast included is a very good quality English breakfast. The Ac worked very well and quiet. Our room was not cleaned daily during our 9 days stay. But once we asked the reception, it was cleaned. We killed a crawling bug - about 3cm on our room carpet. So we requested the room to be cleaned that day!

Good experience with some questions about the faci
The Novatel in Paddington is a reasonable place to stay. However, on this occasion work was being undertaken every week day, limiting our enjoyment. The bathroom/toilet is an interesting configuration. It is great that the toilet is separate. However, the bathroom is the only place to wash ones hands. Were there supposed to be hand basins in the toilet? COVID has introduced us to hand sanitizer which is an option for the individual to provide. Check in was ordinary, with noone coming to advise us our room was ready even though we had collected our laptops and were using the area nearby. The bed was fine, as were the towels, but not special. The lobby area is good. The bar area is great with power points, another excellent feature of the bedroom. This was a good size with nice hanging space and full length mirrors. So, for me a bit of a mixed bag. Probably I'd stay there again but feel I'd also look at other options.
