 The lift was very slow and didn t like the voice saying doors open etc Movement in the room above could be heard and one night it was especially bad about midnight for over an hour That was rather annoying 
 We loved the location being close to Kensington Gardens Hyde Park Bus stops and Paddington Railway Station We enjoyed the variety offered with continental breakfast but didn t try croissants as they cannot be compared to those we had in France The lounge was a very nice area and the restaurant was very good also
