St. David's Hotel was a very nice surprise find! It's a block from Paddington on a quiet square. Our room was tiny - just big enough for two twin beds, but it was comfortable and most importantly, spotless. We slept well as the beds were comfortable and the room was very quiet. We had an ensuite room. The toilet, sink... More

Looking for luxury and space, then St. David's is not for you. However, if you're looking for a clean and comfortable place to sleep, at a fair price then you can't go wrong with this accomodation. Steps from Paddington Station and all the convenience that holds with train, tube, and bus options right out your door (and down the block).... More

I stayed there twice in March and April, first time 5 days, 2nd time 7 days. Spotless. Reception manned 24/7 by either the owner or 3 others, so they soon get to know you. Due to a disability, I had requested not too many stairs and they accommodated me. Bags are carried up by staff. Area is very quiet, with... More

Spent the last week of March at the hotel. It is well situated, close to Paddington Station and London Underground. It is also within walking distance of the hop on / hop off tour bus. Friendly, helpful staff who are always available. Breakfast is as good as they say it is although when we went the hotel was pretty packed... More

It is a small hotel with very simple rooms. highlights the excellent location, the bathroom spotless, the friendly staff and the breakfast plentiful. My room was on the fourth floor, walk up the stairs with a heavy suitcase could have been complicated but received help from the hotel. Near the hotel there are several places where you can eat, or... More

We stayed at St. David's Hotels based on reviews on Trip Advisor. We chose based on location, price, and that the breakfast is included. The staff at the front desk were always very warm and accommodating. They provided us recommendations for restaurants in the area, and also were willing to watch our valuables during the day while we were out... More

It was a great experience to stay at this family run hotel. My wife and I stayed here for 5 nights. Very close to Paddington station, good location, within walking distance of Hyde Park & Marble Arch, accessible from Heathrow easily by train. The staff were warm, friendly, helpful. The rooms are very basic with just enough space for two... More

The St David's hotel is on a park a block away from Paddington station. The location is good, especially if you want to catch an early train to Heathrow. The rooms are small, but comfortable with en-suite shower units available. There is an excellent full English breakfast included. Everyone on staff is very pleasant and there is 24 hour main... More

9 of us were looking for a London hotel--something not expensive, and not downtown as we were driving. Found this on Tripadvisor--and it was adequate. It's close by Paddington Station for the Tube--which gets us around town. A little hard to find if driving--and parking is a problem. They had us park at St. James Church--about 4 blocks away. No...
