Only good thing about the hotel is it's location just next to Paddington Station. Reason I booked this hotel was they have couple of reserved street parking which I could book (GBP 15 per night). I had a 10 day family trip Paris-London-Amsterdam-Brussels, had stayed in this hotel 3 nights, got a family room with 3 twin beds and a double bed through Expedia. We had 2 adults 2 big kids and a 5 years old and they charged another GBP 45 for 3 night without providing any extra amenities for the 5 years old kid. No other hotel did that in that trip or ever in my 25 years of travelling anywhere in the world. Free Breakfast till 9 AM is joke, just cereal and bread, but the ladies in the kitchen are awesome (does not speak English much though). You can use their Iron 10-6 only in their basement. Shower is so tiny that a fat guy wouldn't fit! They have AC but another GBP 10 per night to switch it on, they don't mention such things in Expedia. The day receptionist, a young brown boy is very pleasant but the night receptionist is terrible young guy with lot of attitude, not sure why but I would have fired such guy on first day from my business. And the manager, an old British lady, seems living in 18th century ruling the world! I would not recommend this hotel to anyone neither I would go back there.

Great location - only 5 minute walk from Paddington Station. Great for rail and underground access. Triple room was small but clean and comfortable and the bathroom was spotless. Breakfast was ok - coffee was not great, and no fresh fruit, only tinned peaches, but there was plenty of continental breakfast options. All the staff were kind and helpful. It was a hot summer night in our 4th floor room, so we called down for the AC to be switched on and this was an extra £10, but was worth every penny. Beds were comfortable and shower worked well. Thankfully there is an elevator in the building which we were very grateful. Overall good value for money in an exceptional location and I would happily book here again.

So close to Paddington and across the street from Hyde park. Very close to some amazing restaurants...our favorite was a place named Mimo's and Wahaca 😋😋. Walking distance to Carnaby, ... approx 40mins but the walk was good; we walked it numerous times. The hotel has the bare essentials, but for a spot where we were just going to sleep it was perfect. We were safe; the place was clean, rooms were cleaned everyday. The staff don't go out of there way to chat, but we liked that. To get air conditioning in the room is was 10£ extra a night...worked too good and room got pretty cold very fast. We will more likely book here again!

The Olympic House was a great place to stay for so many reasons. The proximity to Paddingtom station was key as this tube/train can get you anywhere you want to go. The service at the hotel was excellent and the people who worked there kind and considerate. Just a great place to stay for your visit to London.

The property is not the worst in London, sure. It is clean although there is a rat infestation outside. Rooms are fine, but you need to pay extra to use the air conditioning which then runs without temperature control. The breakfast is maybe ok but the room is noisy, windowless and closes at 9am on Sunday. The fire scape route is not kept free at all times.

The location of the hotel is great - it's a 4 minute walk to the Paddington station, and a 10 minute walk to an area with tons of restaurants, shops, etc. The hotel room itself was clean and comfortable. The only reason for me giving 4 stars for the property condition & facilities is that they charge extra for A/C (it seems this is quite normal in the UK ; we just had the bad luck of being there during a heat wave, so it was harder).

Hidden charges and bad wifi.

As expected was a small room only fit for sleeping in. Which was fine for my needs. A very simple breakfast is included. Two major issues though. They charged an extra £10 per night to turn on the air conditioning, which couldn’t then be controlled or modified. So, the fan and air temperature were centrally controlled. The way they tried to argue it was fair and not a hidden charge was extremely annoying. Having air conditioning was one of the criteria I book on. Second, in the evenings the wifi strength was very poor. I wouldn’t stay here again.

This is a tourist hotel in an excellent location. This hotel is minimalist and functional. One would only want to sleep and dress here. There is no room for anything else. Breakfast is substandard.
