Admiral Hotel

Very good

Liked: The staff were kind and polite, especially Kevin, who was very helpful and supportiveThe location is excellent
Disliked: No varieties in breakfast. However, the ladies in the kitchen made an excellent english breakfast.

Convenient location, but somewhat dated.

Liked: Location- proximity to Paddington and Hyde park couldn’t be beaten
Disliked: Decor was a little dated and property could have been cleaner. Check in was in a completely building, this would have been good to know. Also worth noting there was no lift to the top floor.

Super cool

Liked: Clean, comfortable and easy to find
Disliked: We couldnt find our room

Avoid!

Liked: Very close to Hyde park and tube station
Disliked: - Booked admiral hotel, however we were then given a room in a different hotel next door- Attic room, very hot, up multiple flights of steep stairs, not suitable for anyone with walking difficulties -Outdated decor, broken furniture, dirty walls -Damp, odour from bathroom was very bad.-Tiny old bathroom, no bigger than an aeroplane toilet. Huge limescale build up on shower head.-Water pressure was 0 and the shower trickled. There was also only one temperature- cold -Paper thin walls -This one room cost £300 for a night and was not worth it at all. The pictures shown on booking.com do not match what you are met with in reality, especially the bathroom!!

We loved the personal homely...

Liked: The location was outstanding. Just a five minute walk from Paddington station and Paddington tube station. We booked to go to Hyde Park for a concert which was also a 5 minute walk. Kevin the manager of the hotel was exceptionally helpful as we needed advice on directions to major London attractions and he was extremely knowledgeable and spot on everytime. Nothing was to much trouble. He also gave us complimentary drinks on arrival. Top man. The breakfast was nice with everything there required and we were even offered more when finished.
Disliked: The hotel room had no air con and it was too hot. Although there was a plug powered cooler in there which did help. A lack of toilet roll but was redeemed when we asked quite efficiently.

Shocking.. would never return.

Liked: The staff were nice
Disliked: Very poor aesthetics as basic as you’ll get, the room was on top floor in the loft absolutely not ideal when carrying luggage up with children. Wasn’t the cleanest either, ok at best. The room was ridiculously small apparently it was a family room, No it wasn’t. It was boiling hot and the fan blew warm air… I don’t know about you but 34 degrees to try and sleep is beyond uncomfortable, it’s unbearable. That’s all I can say really by this point we checked out and drove 5 hours home after paying £300 for 1 night for absolutely nothing.
