"Standard rooms at this friendly hotel face the bustle of Oxford Street. It’s worth paying a tiny bit more for a garden room which overlooks the courtyard and swimming pool."
Rough Guide
"Medium-sized hotel in a trendy location, run by staff tuned into the local scene (free guided walking tour of Paddington included)."
Fodor's

"All rooms are simple, compact, and very motel-like, but are fine for a few nights. Standard rooms have two single beds, and the garden rooms have queen-size beds and pleasant garden views."

Rooms are open-plan with see-into showers (you can request a frosted one) and, in higher grades, great feature bathtubs.
Mr & Mrs Smith
"The hotelier’s assurance can be seen in the daring integration of old (the former pub’s seedy band-room posters and the brewery’s urinals) and new: the world-class dining, buzzing bar."
