Dolphin Hotel

2nd time stay .. Room 264 !! Location 3 mins walk to Paddington..easy for home after an overnight stay. I've stayed in central London many times previously but dreaded the morning travel to Paddington. This is far better. Lovely spotlessly clean quirky hotel off the main road. 264.. Small single room on its own so no "neighbour noise" Comfy bed and duvet, tv, wifi, fridge, kettle tea/coffee (I buy a pint of fresh milk), shower hot and bouncy. I love the old fashioned pull flush on the loo !! What more is needed ? I want to relax not hold a ball !! Staff I've met have been lovely and helpful Breakfast is more than adequate !! Good selection.. Lovely creamy greek yoghurt, fruit, cereals eggs toast etc juices, coffee .. and again lovely staff x It's now my first choice for an overnighter .. it may not be the Ritz... but its not Ritz prices either. It's excellent value for money xx till next time .. Many thanks x

Great location

Perfect location

Brilliant for late flight in to Heathrow and train back to Wales from London and lots of cafes open late around it.

Good breakfast.Good location.Nice room.

I'd read negative reviews so was a bit wary. I stayed just for one night. I'd booked an economy single .. I was just going to sleep there not host a party ! I had room 274 .. up a couple of flights of stairs and sort of set on its own. It was small, had a single bed with pristine white linen, towels and a snuggly duvet. A tiny shower room..the toilet had a chain pull I haven't seen one of those for years! and very importantly a kettle! Stayed close by before so aware of train rumblings and packed earplugs .. no problems there I'd opted for breakfast, I'm not a cooked breakfast person but what i saw a family tucking in to was freshly cooked and looked lovely!! What was on offer otherwise was more than adequate.. I had a big bowl of muesli, Greek yoghurt fruit and honey, egg, cheese and toast, 2 big mugs of coffee and juice... and lots of other choices like cakes and biscuits were available I was happy with this hotel, economy yes .. but with an economy price. Sometimes people want luxury at low price hence all the negativity All the Staff were very helpful and pleasant, check in /out easy . I'd certainly stay again without hesitation x It's perfectly located for Paddington Station x Thank you Dolphin x

You need to pay extra for some sausages & backed beans. Otherwise good breakfast. Limited towels supplies, no towels for face wash, no face cloths.

We recently stayed at the Dolphin Hotel as a family of five, and while it may not be the most luxurious option, the location truly made it worth it. The hotel is just a short walk from Paddington Station, making it incredibly convenient for getting around London. We were able to easily access the Tube and train services, as well as explore the nearby areas, including Hyde Park and Notting Hill. It was an ideal base for our family to enjoy the city. The hotel itself isn’t fancy, but it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Our room was located on the top floor, which came with a bit of a challenge—there’s no elevator, so we had to carry our luggage up several flights of stairs. It wasn’t a huge issue, but it’s something to keep in mind, especially if you’re traveling with heavy bags or little ones. Despite the stairs, the room was perfectly fine for our family. It was clean, spacious enough for all of us, and had all the basic amenities we needed. The staff were friendly and helpful, and we appreciated the quiet, relaxing atmosphere after a busy day of sightseeing. Overall, this hotel is a great, no-frills option for families visiting London. The location makes it a solid choice, and the room suited our needs just fine. If you're looking for a comfortable and convenient place to stay without the luxury price tag, this hotel is definitely worth considering
