Average
Average - cheap price and good location (shops and cafes by Bayswater are good). Clean room. I was kept awake into the early hours by doors banging on the corridor and creaky floorboards in the room above. Could hear voices from the room above very clearly. Breakfast very cheap- advertised as continental breakfast but the only cereal choice was cornflakes and only toast -no pastries- included.
My mum and I really enjoyed staying here. You don’t feel like you’ve overpaid, and the staff were really friendly and helpful. Our room was in a separate building to the main reception which did mean a quick walk to breakfast but given that breakfast was included, can’t complain too much! Overall, a great stay!
The receptionist is not accommodating enough. Asked us twice to go back and forth to the main building as the key card is not activated. To have a good breakfast, you have to pay as the free breakfast has a very limited option.

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
I have stayed at Lords a number of times, always quiet and friendly hotel: recommended
Espacio de la ducha muy pequeña, no instrucciones para la calefaccion, sabanas limpias. Area tranquila y residencial cerca. No elevador, escaleras incomodas.
Family of 5 from North Yorkshire . Room was very sufficient for our needs basically just to sleep in was out exploring. Breakfast was good purchased 3 full Englishes at £8 each was really good value. The free continental breakfast was also good as me and mrs didn’t want full English. Hotel staff very friendly and helpful. Felt really safe in the area as we got back late both nights. You have most shops within an 5 min walk tescos McD’s Starbucks etc. tube station is same 5 min walk. All in all very happy with our stay and will be using again when we visit London.

Beds were uncomfatable and very noisy through the night
I was really disappointed with the stay here, it is no more than a backpackers hostel, the stairs are very narrow and dangerous, the coffee/tea machine was always out of order with the bin beside consistently overflowing with rubbish. The staff don't know how to smile, perhaps they're not paid well enough. Overall I wouldn't recommend.
Beds are quite uncomfortable and rooms are tight. The building also had a plumbing issue that forced us to switch rooms, though we were upgraded due to the inconvenience. So no real foul there.
Great location. Quiet. Safe. A good home base if you’re looking to spend the bulk of your time exploring.
The breakfast experience was disappointing and ideally should come with a detailed menu outlining the offerings. Additionally, it would be beneficial for the accommodation to be conveniently located near the station, allowing for effortless exploration of the surrounding area. Furthermore, the shower facilities were inadequately small.
The hotel staff were polite but never smiled, except for one person at the reception. The hotel seemed to prioritize making money. There was no safe box in the room, and guests had to pay to use the safe box near the reception. Towels were only changed every 4 days, and there was an additional fee if you wanted them changed earlier. The sheets were not changed during our one week of stay. Breakfast only included 4 complimentary items. The fruits and eggs provided were very small, and the portion of orange juice was hardly 50 ml.
The room and bathroom was very small but the place was in a convenient location close to all the places I wanted to go to. The breakfast was okay. But I would stay there again.
