Well located hotel
We were 4 young people (aged between 23 and 28) and spent 2 nights in that hotel for a weekend trip. It is well located and the starf are friendly, helpful and even our wish to be on the seventh floor (to reduce noise from the nearby street) was fulfilled. What we did not like too much was that the toilet flush in our room did not work well and even though we metioned it at reception it was not fixed during the stay. Furthermore there was fungi behind the wallpapers in the corridor what caused a frowsty smell (but the rooms seemed fungi free). Moreover the hotel seemed a bit like a former first class hotel that has seen its best times and needs some investments. Besides these points the hotel is well located (tube and seger buses in all directions nearby) and 15mind from oxford street and next to hyde park. Value for money was okay but considering the above mentioned points compared to other hotels the four star rating is questionable.

Shopping trip
We enjoyed our stay in this very conveniently located hotel, and would be quite happy to book it again for any future visit to London. Our twin room was very quiet, pleasant and comfortable. The hotel is also ideal for people who like to go jogging, walking etc. as it is situated directly across the road from an entrance to Hyde Park.

Nice hotel, room, but far from the airport for just 1 night.
I needed an overnight hotel, and while this was nice, it was too far from the airport for just 1-night. Hotel staff were all nice, and you have everything you need. Room and bathrooms were updated, clean and luxurious. I would stay here again IF I had a longer stay.

Location is it
Overall,average. Here are some things that need work. All rooms should reflect 4 star rating, that's what you pay extra for. We were in 705 and found the room a bit worn and outdated. Carpet was very dirty looking. Bathroom was very small and had mold and cracking paint in the corner of the tub. On the positive the mattress was comfortable,mini bar fridge was nice to use for groceries,location is great for tube use and staff is friendly. Maid service was good except for the one who helped herself to my perfume on the last night. Despite the hotel issues, we had a great time in London.

Great Stay!
Our room was not ready when we arrived, so we got an upgrade to a deluxe room with a view of Hyde Park. It was a very comfortable room. The staff was friendly and helpful. The Island Grill restaurant was great for breakfast. Lounge comfortable and quiet. There are a couple other options for breakfast nearby. The location of the hotel is great, right around the corner from the Lancaster Gate Underground stop. Less than a 10 minute walk from Paddington Station and the pubs around there-Easy access from Heathrow Express.

FANTASTIC experience!
With one small exception, we could not have had a better experience in lodging in London (the wi-fi was the only issue... 17 pounds per day is far too much, but at least they give you 15 free minutes on their business office computers). We were so pleased with our stay... the people couldn't have been nicer, the room was truly amazing, and the location is truly perfect. Thank you for making our stay so pleasant... we'll be back as long as it's affordable as it was this time!

Hidden Gem
You are smack in the middle of it all. I mean the subway is right behind it, you are 5 mins walk from Bayswater, which has superb pubs and restaurants. another 5 to 10 mins walk you are in Nottinghill and Portabella Rd. head the opposite direction and you are walking into the shopping district! OMG i love this place!!! The hotel room itself will be larger than what you normally would get in a big city. Decor is a bit older but heck you are in London, its called History :)

I can't reccomend it
The superior room that we had at the Lancaster was a fairly average-sized hotel room for the price. When we asked for two beds, though, we were given only one. The bed itself was about as uncomfortable as it could have been (I could feel the springs digging into my back). You cannot get the news or weather on the television. Internet access - for which we paid seventeen pounds a day for!! - was an absolute joke! We kept on getting kicked off and the signal was weak when we were connected. The employee in the Business Office was not as friendly as I would have expected at a hotel of this supposed caliber. The only really exceptional aspect was the room service. Those staff members were always friendly, and the food was divine! My suggestion: go to lunch or dinner at one of the hotel restaurants, but don't stay the night.
