Novotel London Paddington

Nice clean comfortable rooms with close location to rail and tube station. We needn't have worried about being disturbed by the trains no noise at all in the room. Would definitely stay here again.

The only small gripe we had was the room only had one spare pillow.

Very efficient, clean, comfortable and excellent location

Arrived in uk, (Heathrow, terminal 5) following long-haul flight and took Paddington Express train. 7-Minute walk with heavy luggage to hotel from train - only about four steps to climb when exiting station. Nice quiet room with bath and shower, tv, hairdryer, complimentary toiletries, tea/coffee making facilities. Liked location very much; close to a mini- Sainsbury's, cafes, bars and restaurants and dry cleaners. Lovely oudoor, amphitheater style relaxing area. Easy access, via short train journey approx 25mins, to Wembley Stadium (best route is Ham./City line to Bakerloo then easy change to Chiltern railway to Wembley). Fabulous breakfast in our room, delivered hot and on time.

Overly expensive internet access. Although there were two computers available for free Internet in the lobby, these were normally occupied by children playing games.

The bar staff and daytime front desk staff were superb.

The gentleman staffing the frontdesk in the evening stayed on the phone with peronal calls making it impossible to call down to request a wakeup call. I eventually just walked down to take care of this.
