Due to late booking issues, I did not have much of a choice when I was searching for hotels/B and Bs around Paddington station. I was able to book a room with shared bathroom at the last minute. Before booking, I had checked out the reviews on tripadvisor, and found that although there were bad reviews, there were also many... More

Definitely not for everybody but can work if you understand what you're getting. For me, I was on a very tight budget and I needed to be as close as possible to Paddington Station for the three nights I spent in London. The Metro Hotel is probably about the best you'll do on both of those counts. The room was... More

I stayed here for six nights with three friends and overall we enjoyed our time at Metro Hotel. It's location right near Paddington train station which was a massive plus for us, as we could catch a tube to anywhere in London with extreme ease. There are also a number of shops, pubs and restaurants nearby. The rooms themselves are... More

Went in the Metro Hotel in February 2013 with three friends (4 nights stay). So yes, this is not the hilton, it's a minimal service, but you have what you pay for. And for the price I was surprised, especially having read comments of people who had a bad time there. It wasn't our case. The room was good, beds... More

We booked a 3 single bed en suite room. We needed somewhere close to central to stay while we checked out London. And let me say this place did not disappoint. The staff were friendly. We stayed in room 6. This is a great little budget hotel. The room we was given was awesome. The beds were clean and fresh.... More

The room was quite small but it was exactly as showed on pictures at the time we made the reservation..so we were not surprised. The hotel is extremly well located and the neighborhood is really nice you can find pretty much everything there. This is... More

We stayed here for two nights in September (2012). It is very close to Paddington rail station and the tube stations (the website gives directions, but this all depends on which exit you come out of and whether this is rail or tube, I still don't know now which exit we came out of!). We received a warm welcome from... More
