Baohui Z. Couples - 7/1/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

Dear Baohui, Thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed our convenient location, clean room, and the friendly and efficient service provided by our team. It is especially rewarding to know that your previous stay with your family in June 2025 left such a positive impression that you chose to return with your wife during your recent visit to London. Your continued loyalty means a great deal to us, and we are thrilled that we were able to provide another enjoyable experience. We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back for many more memorable stays in the future. Warm regards, Ihjas Abdulla Guest Experience Manager

Carolyn G. Couples - 6/30/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

Dear Carolyn, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are delighted to hear that you found our staff helpful and that you enjoyed your room and breakfast. Your kind comments are greatly appreciated and will be shared with the team. However, I would like to sincerely apologise for the disturbance caused by the drilling and hammering you experienced on Monday morning. We understand how important a peaceful night's rest is, and I am sorry that the refurbishment works impacted your stay, particularly while staying in Room 303. As part of our ongoing refurbishment programme, we are investing in upgrading our facilities to enhance the guest experience. While all works are restricted to Monday through Saturday between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., and every effort is made to minimise noise and disruption, I regret that this affected your stay. Your understanding and patience during this period are very much appreciated. We hope you also had the opportunity to visit our leisure centre and enjoy the swimming pool, sauna, and steam room during your stay. Thank you once again for your valuable feedback. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back once the refurbishment is complete and provide the flawless experience you deserve. Warm regards, Ihjas Abdulla Guest Experience Manager

Jen S. Families - 6/29/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

Great location, though it was a little difficult to navigate to on foot from Paddington. It would help to give better walking directions from the station because all of the various exits and different levels of pathways coming from the station - we relied on Google Maps and went wrong a couple of times. It's great to say you're a 5 minute walk from the station, but perhaps advise which exit to take and some practical walking directions on the hotel website. Following a little blue dot on google wasn't very helpful when dragging luggage across in the heat. The staff were absolutely wonderful, very friendly and helpful. A man tried to cut in front of us at check in and the lovely lady on the desk very politely told him that we were first and saved any awkwardness. The room was clean and comfortable, and we slept very well. Would've preferred a more efficient A/C, but it still felt considerably nicer than the past week of a heat wave in our non A/C home. Lack of plugs was a problem for a family of 4, this isn't very well thought out and probably the biggest niggle. All in all, we'd happily stay here again - great location, nice facilities, and lovely staff.

Dear Jen, Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review following your stay with us. I am delighted to hear that you enjoyed our location and found our team to be friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout your visit. Your comments regarding our colleague at reception are especially appreciated. It is wonderful to know that a potentially awkward situation was handled professionally and helped make your arrival experience a positive one. Thank you also for your valuable feedback regarding directions from Paddington Station. We understand that navigating the various station exits and walkways can be challenging, particularly when travelling with luggage during the recent heatwave. For the easiest route, we recommend exiting via the Grand Union Canal/Kingdom Street side of Paddington Station and following the canal walkway directly towards Novotel London Paddington. It is a pleasant walk of approximately five minutes and generally the most straightforward route to the hotel. I am pleased that you found your room clean, comfortable, and conducive to a restful night's sleep. While it is encouraging to hear that the air conditioning provided some relief from the exceptionally warm weather, I appreciate your comments regarding its efficiency and the limited number of power outlets. As part of our commitment to improving the guest experience, the hotel is currently undergoing a comprehensive refurbishment programme. I am pleased to share that our family rooms are scheduled to be refurbished in an upcoming phase of the project, which will help address many of the points you have raised, including additional power outlets and enhanced in-room amenities. I hope you also had the opportunity to visit our leisure centre and enjoy the swimming pool, sauna, and steam room during your stay. Thank you once again for your thoughtful feedback. We are thrilled to know that you would happily stay with us again, and we look forward to welcoming you and your family back to Novotel London Paddington in the near future. Dear Guest, Warm regards, Ihjas Abdulla Guest Experience Manager

Eric S. Business - 6/28/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

I've been a regular guest at various Novotel hotels in London over the last 18 months and generally find them excellent value for money. In principle this was no different but that's twice I've now stayed in a Superior Room the mini bar is empty. On this occasion as it was stifling hot it was a bit of an issue. At check-in I was asked what I wanted in the mini bar and was advised that would be sent to the room but it never materialised - was only looking for a soft drink. Use of water stations is also understandable but not as convenient.
