Alexandra Hotel

Classic Charm Near the Beat of the City

Just a short stroll from the energy of central London, the Alexandra Hotel offers budget-friendly comfort in a classic Victorian townhouse. Nestled in the elegant Paddington neighborhood, this hotel is only a 5-minute walk from Paddington Station and a 15-minute walk to the buzz of Oxford Street. With Hyde Park just around the corner, you’re never far from green space—and even closer to London’s top live music venues.

Rooms are traditionally decorated and include all the essentials—TV, tea and coffee-making facilities, a hairdryer, and private bathrooms. A 24-hour front desk ensures a smooth stay, any time of day or night.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything, and Alexandra Hotel nails it. With quick access to Paddington and Lancaster Gate Underground stations, you can be at your gig—and back again—without breaking a sweat. The hotel’s central spot means late-night transport options are plentiful, and the peaceful residential setting helps with post-show recovery. 24-hour reception is a bonus for those coming in late after encore performances.
