Easy to get to from the station. Looked after our bags. We were on the basement floor so could hear the underground a little. May bother a lighter sleeper but otherwise all good!

Good Short Stay.

I had another good visit to The Dolphin Hotel, where the greeting is good and helpful. For my overnight stay, the room is small but clean and, with a very comfortable bed, I slept well, followed by a good shower in the morning.

Very economic. Certainly not the fanciest but that’s the point. It’s a nice cheaper option especially for the location. Easy access to train station. Lots of shopping and dining in walkable area. Near Hyde park. The breakfast was just okay and the shower temp was a bit hard to manage. But price for location it’s perfect.

Lovely overnight stay at the Dolphin hotel, staff very friendly and helpful, the room was very clean, smaller than anticipated but this isn’t uncommon in London. Breakfast was good. Property was slightly dated but well maintained. Very close to Paddington station and tube, with lots of restaurants, pubs and shops in the vicinity. Would definitely stay there again.

Well located at Paddington with restaurants, mostly middle eastern in the area. Property undergoing renovations which are needed. As a low cost (for London) property expect lots of school groups. Only real concern was the bed which very much needs to be upgraded but which was adequate. Also a lot of stairs and no lift. Overall I was happy with the property and the staff were very accommodating. Breakfast was OK but nothing special.
