Lovely hotel, excellent location and friendly staff
2-night trip

8/10

Stayed at the Athena many times during visits to London. Its in a great location and we always enjoy our stay. My only criticism is that they have now stopped serving full English breakfast and only offer continental for an additional charge.

Lobby is under renovation and the breakfast was more than a bit lacking, but the bed was really comfortable and the bedding was high quality. Also, this hotel is walking distance from Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park. Overall a comfortable stay.

A nice clean hotel with an accommodating and friendly staff. Special thanks you to Mel and Hadi for your hospitality and making my London experience much better. Much appreciate their patience and willingness to be of assistance with any questions I had.
3-night trip

8/10

The value for money for a hotel of this standard in London was quite good, with very welcoming and accommodating staff. The only improving point is the quality of the breakfast (no scrambled eggs, low-quality industrial products, ...). It would be better to offer a slightly more expensive but better-quality breakfast.

Very small room. Comfy soft bed and blanket. Yellow stained bath towels (big turn off). Good for one night in Paddington. Very convenient for walking or train access.
1-night trip

8/10

Convenient to anywhere. Clean and staff friendly offering check out baggage storage with no charge. A little pity is that Five nights stay but the room floor was not cleaned thoroughly in the small size of the room. A soap is only given one for long stay. Overall I would recommend this hotel.

10/10

We had a great stay at our hotel near Paddington. The room was bite size but exactly what we needed. The beds were comfortable, and there were extra blankets which is great as my mom tends to run cold. The desk staff were friendly and helpful with questions about transportation.
3-night trip

8/10

We needed a hotel to stay just one night before flying out of Heathrow. This place is clean, simple, convenient, and comfortable. Beds were super comfortable and the heated floor in the bathroom was nice. The room is small and as basic as you can get, but a great value for the small amount of time we’d be there. Location is so convenient with its proximity to paddington station. Would recommend to people looking for just a bed and a shower and planning to spend most time out exploring London.
