This is our first time to London, and our first choice of hotels was booked, they recommended the Mitre House Hotel. Looking on line at pics, and comments we decided to stay here for 4 nights. Positives - very near Paddington Tube Station, Kensington, Nottinghill, wifi worked, roomed seemed clean,but that is about it. Negatives- our room. Very, very small,... More

I lived and worked in London for 25 years and must have driven past this place dozens of times, it is superbly central, with Hyde Park a stroll away, Oxford St, Paddington Station, Soho, etc within walking distance. Lancaster Gate tube is just around the corner, busses ply their trade at the end of the street etc. The room we... More

My partner and I missed the last train from Paddington and rather than pay an extortionate taxi fare we decided to try and find a room for the night. After trying several hotels that were full we came across this one. The night receptionist clearly thought that my partner was a hooker and that we were getting a room for... More

I stayed here twice for two nights each. The first time I chose the cheapest room and it really was very small. The second time I paid just a little extra for a larger room and it was so much better - I recommend you do this if you have the option. The location is very useful - so easy... More

Positives: 5 minute walk from Lancaster Gate Tube station. First floor rear room was a reasonable size for a London hotel and very clean. Bed linen and towels were spotless, soap, shampoo etc provided and a hairdryer. Tea, coffee, whitener sachets provided with gleaming kettle. Wardrobe and a chair in the room. Flat screen TV wall mounted. Window opened to... More

I recently stayed in a single room on the 4th floor. I've never slept on a worse hotel bed. Ever. I awoke with back pains and had fitful sleeps as the mattress sagged so badly that I could probably have pinched it together on one side. The window was single-paned and the weather has been cold, translating to gusts of... More

Stayed Friday / Saturday weekend. Ideal spot with 20 parking places - leaving on Sunday we wanted to drive round Twickenham & Wimbledon. Whilst the hotel could not guarantee a parking spot they informed that at weekend it should not be a problem. On arriving we we given a newly painted/decorated room - the staff were very welcoming and concerned... More

we needed a room for one night in london at short notice and didnt want to pay too much as it wasnt a special occasion as such, we just needed a bed for the night thats all. i booked our room through the trivago last minute site,every hotel i looked at was fully booked so in the end when i... More

Still a five star rating, nevertheless. Why? Despite being categorised as a 2 star hotel - we had the best simple stay at the most affordable rate. Rooms fitted with the most basic needs of a toilet with not much problems with shower (as how some had complained earlier). Bed was comfy, and I think the television was rather small... More
