London Elizabeth Hotel

absolutely perfect location is ideal so close to hyde park ,very clean and confortable ,excellent breakfast

Room allocated extremely poor if you have already booked ensure you are not given room 335 It is tiny, dark, smelly and mould growing on righthand side of bed. Fortunately they changed our room without hesitation and it was a lot better although the 3rd star allocated for having net curtains should be removed as they were ill fitting and dirty grey colour so unable to see through them. This is not a 3* hotel and not good value for money. No tea and coffee making facilites. I did not stay long enough to experience the hospitality the reviews i read mentioned.

My wife and I had a very nice stay of 8 nights at the London Elizabeth in September. This is an aging property, without particular frills, but it's a very good budget choice (for London prices anyway). The hotel is around the corner from the Lancaster Gate tube stop and an easy walk to Paddington Station. The street it's on is busy and the extremely busy road along the top of Hyde Park/Kensington Gardens is just around the corner, so do yourself a favor as we did and request a room in the back. The walls are a bit thin regardless, but we never had any particular problem with sound. Our room was small, but not tiny. Everything was clean, although some of the decor was a bit worn. The room had a safe, a trouser press, a television (only 4 channels, but we didn't vacation in London to watch TV), and plentiful hot water (if anything the pressure was too high) at all times of day. The bathroom was very clean, and my only issue was with the shower, which was high and a bit difficult to clamber into, and then so slim that it was difficult to stay out of the shower curtain while showering. The continental breakfast was adequate: four kinds of pastry, cereals, two juices, toast, tea, coffee, hard-boiled eggs, yogurt, and mixed cut fruit. By the end of eight days, a little variation would have been welcome, as would a bit of cheese, but everything was always fresh and service was good. A full breakfast was available for 6 pounds more. We didn't eat in the restaurant otherwise. We got good help with restaurant recommendations from the concierge, and there are plenty of options in the neighborhood, particularly if you like Middle Eastern and Asian food. Several decent pubs were an easy walk away. Don't be mistaken: this isn't the Ritz, but they took good care of us and we never had an issue in eight days that required remediation. This is a solid budget option in a good location in a city of expensive hotels. I would stay again.

Let's just call it ok. The hotel is old - really old, which is common in London. That said, my room was fine but the double beds are just two singles pushed together. The elevator fits one person and runs slow enough that taking the stairs is faster. The carpeting in the rooms needs to be replaced but generally the place is pretty clean, despite the worn look. My colleague stayed in a double room with two beds but his room was smaller and he said the beds were awful. End of the day, I wouldn't stay here again. The location is okay, but there are lots of other good location places to chose from.

We were upgraded to a very nice suite. There is Wi-Fi, but no computers available should one not be traveling with a laptop. Good value for London. Great location next to Lancaster Gate Underground

This is a pretty good hotel if you want a location beside Hyde Park and a tube station and you're not too fussy about having brand new decor and furniture. Main thing for me is, the sheets and towels were clean. Polite and helpful staff too. Big plus points for: free wifi, bath, breakfast included in what was a pretty good price for what seemed to be a fairly busy night in London's hotels. Big minus for: no tea/coffee-making in the room. Also minus for: tired building/decor, very cheap iron & ironing board.

Traveled all over London Room way too small, could barely turn in the bathroom Room needed fresh paint Check out was at noon and the staff started banging on the door at 9:00 am.

Very friendly, helpful staff. Clean, but old and worn furnishings. Great location, comfy bar, good value with included breakfast and free wifi (rare in europe!)

The London Elizabeth is a great value for the money. Don't expect the Ritz, but you can expect a friendly staff, a clean room, a nice restaurant and a bar that stays open late. Located just across the street from the Lancaster Gate underground station and three short blocks from Paddington Station, the hotel is a short ride to anywhere you'd want to go in London..... I will stay here again.....avoid ripoff prices closer to downtown. This is a great place to stay.

This is a quaint hotel with spectacular customer service. We travel frequently and are often disappointed with the friendliness of the staff. Not here. The staff is knowledgeable, and responsive to all our needs. The hotel is centrally located on Kensington park right across from Lancaster Gate. The bus and the tube are literally a few steps away. The food is top notch and reasonably priced. Try the bangers with mash and oinion gravy! The rooms are comfortable. This could be the best value hotel we have tried in London.
