Hotel Queensway - London

Great location close to the underground. Wide selection of resturants close by. The lift stops on half floors so you carry your bags up/down a level. Good continental breakfast.

Perfect location for weekend visit to London, very near to paddington tube station. Small clean rooms, nice continental breakfast.

This is an excellent budget hotel. The rooms are small, but they are exceptionally clean. The bathrooms are also small, but they are also clean and the water gets hot quickly. The service was very good -nice reception, responsive and helpful with questions about the area. And the continental breakfast was wonderful. This is a great value -I would absolutely stay here again.

Taking into consideration the type of accommodation one can find in central London at this price, I think this hotel is very good value for money. It's literally around the corner from Paddington. Staff friendly and helpful.Breakfast basic, but breakfast area clean. I booked a single room, but was upgraded to a double, which was relatively quiet. Room clean, but no remote control for the flat screen tv, which is quite irritating, especially after a long day. Tiny bathroom. Situted on a very nice and safe street. As a single woman coming back to the hotel late in the evening, I never felt uneasy.

Well with the price

Great location and friendly staff. But the breakfast closed too early (9.15 even on New Year's Day). The staff also switched off the heating for most of the day even though we were there in the middle of the winter. They were slow to change towels in the bathroom and the shower in our room splashed water all over the place.

Elevator stopped between floors so you had to lug suitcases either up or down a flight. The bathroom was teeny, tiny but clean. Towels left on floor were not replaced - had to call for clean ones. Walls in room were scuffed - could have used new paint. Very little space in room for suitcases & to get around the two single beds. Noisy street till after mid-night. Location is convenient to underground. Breakfast was adequate - service there was good.

Very good value for the money. As reflected from both the price and the hotel’s description, it’s not a luxurious hotel, but it’s a great hotel if you’re looking for a basic room in nice and clean surroundings without paying too much. Great location – 3-4 minutes walk to Paddington station (a good selection of restaurants, cafes, bars on the way there) and close to Hyde Park. Friendly staff. The room was quite small (but not claustrofobic), and was furnished with a big bed, a closet, TV and a desk. The bathroom was also quite small, but very nice and clean. The cleaning was very good both at arrival and during the stay. We didn’t hear any noise from outside or from other guests. I don’t understand why people complain about the breakfast. The hotel advertise with continental breakfast, and then you can’t expect a large buffet. You get coffee, tea, juice, yoghurt, croissant, toast and a selection of jam/marmelade, the breakfast staff are very nice and the surroundings are clean and hygenic. If you need a buffet or full english breakfast, there are many places close by the hotel which serve this.

Fantastic location for food, transport and sights. Breakfast was good.room was hot with no air flow and the bathroom was very small but very clean. There is free wifi you just need to ask at reception for the code. Would stay here again.

Great location. Clean, modern, but small bathroom. The room was also quite small, but enough for 2 people for 4 nights. A lot of noise through the window, earplugs needed. Breakfast was ok.

Clean, neat, rather small (by American standards) room. Very competent staff. Location made it easy to explore any part of London. Would stay there again!

6 nights spent in London : The nearby has excellent bus and metro connections to the centre of the town , as well as good places where to eat or shop food.

Very good location, very small rooms, quiet, WIFI did not work (most of the time), breakfast poor, service at desk friendly, at breakfast-room unfriendly. All in all: OK.

If you need just a place to spend the night and close to the tube, this is perfect for you. Otherwise there is nothing positive I can say about this place.

Regarding services - The listed wifi access did not work at all within room. Only at times withing the lobby. The staff was not helpful and just made excuses. As having free wifi is becoming a very common guest requirement, this is not acceptable. It is a very small investment in wifi equipment for a small hotel, so no excuse not to have working very well throughout the hotel. Also, I requested if ice available and was told to go buy some down the street from a market. As the reservation included breakfast and they have kitchen area, seems unreasonable not to have ice machine available to guests.

In the plus site I must say the hotel has a great location - station is just 2 minutes away, hotel is located in a nice neighborhood - you can sleep with an open window because there in no noise, the staff is frendly, i have reserved twin room and when i arrived got a room for three person with no extra charging, they changed the towel every time when i put it on the floor in the bathroom, the room was clean. I was only disaponted on the breakfast offer. I maybe have expected more offer and the container cleanliness was very poor. Sugar bowl, plates on which the jam is, table cloths on the tables -it was unclean, they should take better care of the cleanliness in the dining room, because the cleanliness in room, bathroom, receptions is very good. But i do recommend this hotel, because in general it is a good hotel in great location and with nice and friendly staff.

My only comment would be that my single room was on the 4th floor and they only have a lift to the 3rd. This meant actually dragging my luggage up a number of steep and very narrow stairs to get them to my room. A room on the 4th floor would not be recommended for the elderly or infirm.

We stayed in the hotel 3 days, the room was quite clean but very small. The breakfast was very poor. The location is excellent, 2 mins from Paddington station, perfect to visit the city.

Chambre trés spacieuse super pour quelques jour de visite car trés bien situé entre le métro paddington et hyde parc.

Good hotel, unfortunately no WiFi internet area avaible!

Good services, near metro station, clean and warm. rooms not so spacious.., breakfast till 09:20 and not extended.... at all... very helpful staff.

A very decent hotel for this price range, for London standards. The room was quite big, and seemed recently renovated. The staff was helpful and polite. The hotel is very conveniently located near Paddington station. The only complaint is that in the morning lots of noise was coming from the corridor.

The hotel does not provide for changing towels and sheets...no good thing.

The room was clean and spacious but the bathroom was very small. The receptionist was very helpful, she helped us with getting tickets for some of London's attractions. The hotel is very close to paddington underground station. Several good restaurants are very close as well. The cleaning and breakfast staff are not very friendly/hospitable.

We had a pleasant overnight stay at the hotel. It's in a good location and is quite close to Paddington Station. The inclusive breakfast was simple but adequate.

I'll start with the good. The sheets were clean, and it was a very easy walk to Paddington for the Heathrow Express. Now the bad. The elevator only worked for my first trip up to the fourth floor, but only to the third floor. The stairs to the 4th were nearly impossible to get up with any sizeable luggage. After that, the elevator was broken, so it was down and up and down four flights of stairs. The room was clean, but very small, including the bathroom. Water pressure was poor in the shower. Some neighbors came home around 3 am, drunk, and I heard every word of their conversation until they thankfully passed out. I guess all these Sussex Gardens places are like this -- and the Queensway may be better than most. You get what you pay for.

We stayed at the Queensway Hotel for a full 5 nights, which was at least 3 too many. The room was "decorated" in dark colors, and overlooked a tiny courtyard (more like a shaft).It had one window (which couldn´t lock) at the far end of the room, so only very little natural light could come in. The result was an extremely dark and drab room. More complaints: small bathroom without space to put toiletries, toothbrush and so on. Towels were not changed once during our whole stay. There seemed to be no cleaning during the stay -only the beds were made. At night there was a lot of noise from other guests. The safe in the closet didn´t work, and finally the breakfast was poor. All in all a hotel that we were glad to leave when the time finally came! One positive thing though - the location was good:close to buses and tube. And London is such a great city, so our trip was a success anyway, despite the stay at the Queensway...which will be the first and last!

I have stayed in other hotels in the area (good area for getting into London)and this was best so far especially for price. Good welcome at reception. Although early, room was ready and we could leave bags and head off. Good sized room for London standards, clean, and beds were comfortable. No view (back of hotel, ground floor) but not necessary since out of room most of the time. Really quiet. Would have liked a cooked breakfast but you can't have everything. Only complaint - the milk was 'long-life'. Yuk, I had yogurt on my muesli.

Good value for the money Excelent location! 5min walk from Paddington

Perfect location near Paddington station with a few very good restaurants in 5min walking distance. one of the best hotels I've been in London so far in lower budget level. breakfast very simple, lots of stairs with lift only to some levels. will stay again.

The hotel did not changed towels or linen during my stay ( 8 nights ) and one day my room was not serviced at all The room was on the 4th floor while the elevator reached the 3d floor so you had to climb with your luggage through very narrow stairs and it was very small.

Very nice and clean, completely redecorated/refurbished twin room (ground floor), good bathroom and quite spacious, especially for London standards. Only annoyance in the room: simple sheet and good new blanket, which however kept falling off the bed during the night. I think a hotel of that category should invest in some decent duvets. Professional but very reserved staff at reception (a smile wouldn't do any harm!). The staff in the breakfast room provided even more unfriendly service (they refused to toast my special glutenfree bread I had brought along, which I think is simply unacceptable in this day and age with so many people having special dietary needs!) All in all definitely recommendable if breakfast is not your focus. Much better than many a place I've seen in London!

Nice place to stay, good value for money with centeral location

Had a great stay. Room was downstairs, under reception. Not particularly noisy but would have preferred to have been upstairs. Brilliant location. Would stay there again.

Hotel veramente carino e confortevole (stanza numero 14), pulito e con un'ottima colazione situato nel quartiere medio-orientale di Londra. Stazioni della metropolitana vicinissime (Paddington ed Edgware Rd). Molto comodo per chi vola da London Stansted data la vicinanza con Baker St. (10 minuti a piedi o 5 sterline con un taxi) dove si fermano le navette delle Easybus o i pullman della National Express. Per un prossimo viaggio a Londra lo terrò sicuramente in considerazione.

Accueil sans aucune chaleur, chambres très petites mais bien aménagées... Hôtel plutôt moyen jusqu'au dimanche matin : Nous avons été réveillées dès 6 heures du matin par les innombrables va-et-viens des clients et du personnel... Portes qui grincent, claquent, douches qui s'écoulent... Nous avons tout entendu. Quand nous sommes finalement descendus à 9h30, le petit-déjeuner, compris dans le tarif, n'était plus servi (uniquement de 8h30 à 9h15) !!! Et personne, la veille, ne nous en avait informés... Bref, déjà que l'ensemble était plutôt moyen pour un prix élevé... Nous avons trouvé qu'il s'agissait d'un véritable manque d'esprit d'accueil. Nous n'y reviendrons pas.

Queensway is a very nice hotel. Quiete rooms, good breakfast, employees very kind!Near the hotel there are 2 tube stations, minimarkets and different pubs.Recommended!

NEGATIVO !!! Di positivo ha solo la posizione, ma nella stessa zona gli alberghi sono un surplus!!! L'unica cosa che mi interessava erano asciugamani puliti: per 2 volte ho dovuto fare richiesta per averli, mentre una volta sono stati cambiati con asciugamani provvisti di fantastiche macchie gialle!!! Non mi sento di consigliarlo a nessuno solo per questo!!! Il bagno era piccolo e il lavello visibile solo al microsopio. La colazione consiste in: caffé (acqua?) o té; yogurt (fragola opp. pesca); briosche a produzione industriale; corn flakes opp. muesli; 2 fette di toast; macedonia; e ... stop. Sovrapprezzo se si paga con la carta di credito e hanno chiesto il pagamento subito all'arrivo.

I am a very frequent traveler, staying in London 2 nights a week in average in various hotels. This hotel is on the top of my list. Very few other accomodation offer a very clean, cable tv, internet free, good location stay in london for the price. Definitly a very nice 3 stars witch could be competing with a lot of overpriced 4 stars.

Hotel recently renovated, clean, room was a bit small (the bathroom is very small and nicely renovated) but in good conditions and clearly refurbished recently. Nothing negative to report, average service compared to the category but the general status of the building/rooms is superior to othe B&B of the same level.

We got what we paid for - accommodation close to central London convenient for tube etc, it's expensive for what you get but I think that's the cost of convenience. Staff very friendly and rooms/bathrooms very clean. Very noisy as on main road.

Everything as described, no bad surprises. On the contrary, the room was very big, at least according to London standards. Bathroom very clean and with lots of space. You can tell that the hotel was recently renewed, as the paint job is still very neat. Short walk to two central tube stations and a plus: you have a large flat screen TV in the bedrrom. Could be a little cheaper, but it's well woth the price.

Very good small hotel, near by a subway station and restaurants. New equipments. Don't leave without eat in the restaurant in front of it.

Second day the heating was not working; after request they told that during the day they switch it off anyway. As it was not working during the night either they were only willing to deduct GBP 5 from the bill.

We did not find the reservation when we got to the hotel. Fortunately they could arrange a room for us. The room was clean when we got it, but the second day the bathroom was as we left. Moerover the service at breakfast room was rude.

I arrived early and my single room was not ready so they gave me a double room that was ready instead. I run up to London often and have stayed in 20 plus hotels- the best by far! Very close to Paddington station.

A sound hotel in a good location for exploring Madrid. Lots of goot bars and cafes around and 2 laundrettes within 5 minutes walk. We didn't eat breakfast in the hotel we had it in the Plazza each morning, it was cheaper.

Very pleasant stay at the Hotel Queensway. The room was clean, bath facilities clean and fresh and the staff very helpful. This hotel was just what I wanted and I would definitely stay there again.

These rooms are fairly reasonable considering the price and location. The bathroom was quite small, but it was all that you needed. I would stay here again, but remember that it's in London so adjust your expectations accordingly.

Albergo discreto, bagno privato abbastanza pulito, camere accoglienti niente di particolare, ma per il prezzo e la vicinanza alla metro e al centro va più che bene! Un consiglio, non prendete l'ascensore...sono rimasta due volte chiusa dentro!

Great location for sightseeing, especially if you like to discover sights on foot .

Overall the hotel was excellent and exactly what it said on the tin! Location was excellent, nice area, good transport on the doorstep.Reception staff also very helpful.Windows opened in the room and there was also an air conditioning unit which was ideal as it was very hot - I would not have expected this for the price we paid. Only a couple of criticisms: the bedsheets had small holes in them,looked as if they had been torn when cleaned. Also, there was a bit of traffic noise, but what disturbed sleep more was the fact that the staff from the hotels seemed to congregate outside very early in the morning on their breaks. The noise of their voices was quite loud and did disturb our sleep. Overall was very happy with the hotel and its location - definitely would stay there again.

Great location, short walk to paddington or oxford st.

Clean basic hotel which most of the neighbouring hotels fail to meet. Overpriced at 90GBP but all seem to be overpriced

Room was small but clean. Front desk staff was very nice and helpful but breakfast ladies quite grumpy. Breakfast was simple. Location was great, close to Paddington and near a number of restaurants, bars, cafes.

Clean, quiet and newly redecorated. Extra small bathroom which is not a surprise in Paddington and Bayswater area. I'll surely stay again!

Pros: close to tube station and Hyde Park, low price. Cons: toilette too small. hard to use the wc, not enough room for knees. Overall good quality for the price

Lovely room, small but very very good value for money in heart of London. Perfect location. Will stay there again, in same room if posible.

L'hotel come ubicazione è comodo, vicino alla metro ..però se non siete giovani campeggiatori ve lo sconsiglio.E' sporco (copriletto strappato e macchiato...peli\capelli sotto le coperte) bagno micro...rumore dalla strada...un hotel così in Italia non ha neppure l'agibilità...

The hotel is very basic. The rooms are super small but the bathrooms are tiny. We stayed there twice. The second time the room was terribly hot, but at our request, the receptionist, an extremely nice man from Egypt, provided us with a fan. Breakfast...it is England. Two toasts and jam served by an incredible rude lady. "Don't like it get out of the Army". The neighborhood is so so, but easy to reach. A friend of mine told me that the street was used by prostitutes and that explains the signs by the police warning motorist not to pull over. We didn't see any suspicious activity.

We found the rooms to be very small in particular the bathroom - one could hardly turn around in it

The twin bed room is not bad, they provide sufficient space for us also quite clean. Except for the glasses and spoons provided in the room, seems like unproperly clean. You still can see some trace of coffee or tea from the previous usage. The breakfast is also quite poor, they only serve bread and some sort of jams. The juice selections are also very poor with sour taste. The maid in the breakfast room is very rude in serving the guest. However, except for the breakfast things, everything else is not bad. The price is not that cheap, but what is cheap in London anyway.

Not a fancy place, but certainly well worth the price.

The rooms in the Queensway Hotel are relatively large (for London), clean and everything there as stated on the homepage like hair-drier, tv, phone... I think the relationship between price/quality is quite good.
