Great staff, clean bite size rooms

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.

Weather was very London. Stay was cozy and great for a close group of friends. Great location for getting some food or sightseeing. Perfect room for a busy vacation. The Athena hotel has a cute charm to it and would recommend to anyone traveling to the paddington area

Rodney, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Close to Paddington Station

Nice entrance and lobby - and friendly staff for checkin. I had booked a 2 night stay - and when checking in - informed me that i had to stay in two different rooms - one for each night (i had a number of bags, so unpacking and packing was not convenient; and the rooms were on different floors with no elevator close by). They DID offer to have their staff move my bags into the new room which went well. The rooms are very small, even by London standards - but they were both clean and well maintained. I would stay here again given the front staff support.
John, 2-night trip

Our stay was just for one night. The room extra small. Didn’t have hot water right away.

Great little hotel

3 day visit recently and we enjoyed our stay..clean, comfortable enough despite being a bit cramped for us 3 ladies but for the price and location- it's great 👍 And the staff were so friendly and helpful on our first trip to London.

Would have been perfect - but the mattress was far to soft and unfortunately I did wake up with back ache both morning Sort the mattress and I’d happily go back

This hotel is in a great position close to several tube lines, Oxford st and Hyde park. The accomodation is basic but cosy and perfectly fine for a short stay.

The rooms are a little on the small side but really this no issue. They're spotless, comfortable and the staff were absolutely lovely. Would definitely look to stay here again on our next trip to London.
