Royal Lancaster London

London|1.51km from Nearby park
Be careful of being unknowingly charged with a ‘discussionary charge of tips’ (supposed to be A Conpulsory charge of tips, don’t be fool by the name, it is non-discussionary) AFTER CHECKING OUT of the hotel. I was being charged with a discussionary charge of the tips on the credit card automatically without being informed upfront after I checked out and left the hotel. When I checked out, i was informed at the counter that they were closing their account for previous day and they would help me check out my room and email me the invoice of my stay after they finished closing account. As a result, I innocently left the hotel since I thought a 5-star hotel would not have anything gone wrong. However, I was totally wrong until I saw extra charges on my credit card while not receiving any so called invoice from the hotel at all. I then reached out to Trip.com to request for the invoice that they have promised to send to me and it was then I was informed that the extra charges were from a discussionary charge of tips. I wasn’t happy about the way this was done hence I requested for a refund for this since it clearly stated this is a DISCUSSIONARY fee, not a compulsory fee. However, I was informed that this is a Non-refundable fee and my request was denied. Out of so many hotels I have stayed, it is unbelievable that in a 5-Star hotel, I was forced to pay something that wasn’t even being informed upfront. In addition, with the fee name suggested, it is a discussionary charge of tips NOT a compulsory charge of tips, the hotel has forced the customers to pay it as COMPULSORY CHARGE OF TIPS. In addition, the hotel services were very inefficient and lot of rooms for improve. We ordered for an in-room meal and we were told that it would take about half an hour to deliver. Hence we waited, and until an hour later, there was no update on our meal and we had to make a call again to check for the progress of our meal. It was then we knew there was a delay in the meal. By the time we done with our meal, we made the call again to request for someone to collect the plates, we literally waited for more than an hour and had to call twice before someone came to pick up the plates. This shouldn’t have been the service received in a 5-star hotel and the worst of all, the hotel should have more transparency in their charges and should have informed the customers on the charges upfront before the actual charging. When we signed for the amount paid for the meal, there were no statement on the discussionary charge of tips at all, and we didn’t expect there would be as we were not even informed. It is not that we are unwilling to give the tips and we did give the tips during the stay. However, it made us very uncomfortable that we weren’t informed anything upfront and it was charged to my credit card AFTER we CHECKED OUT of THE HOTEL. It made us feeling very unsafe to provide the credit card to the hotel as they can charge whatever charges they want after checking out the hotel. In addition, it is a discussionary charge, isn’t it should be discussed before I was being charged? If not it should be called a a compulsory charge of tips.

The Colonnade Hotel

London|0.28km from Nearby park
This is written with intent disappointment at the standard/ quality of the room we were provided, as well the manners of staff employed. I would like to note that at our insistence, we were moved rooms to another classic double room, but this was of an equally poor standard to the original room. Firstly, it came as a surprise that our room was in fact underground the main reception, this is not noted in any of the website descriptions or pictures. Not only was there an immense lack of ventilation resulting in dampness and mould on the walls and ceilings of the room, but you could audibly hear the underground trains running every few minutes. Even before reaching our room we had to step over communal laundry which had been left at the foot of the stairs. There was also a draft through the corridor as a result of a hole in the ceiling, filled with what appeared to be towels. Secondly, the lack of attention paid to the cleanliness of the room was outstanding. As you will note from the [pictures/ videos] there was an incredible build-up of dust on areas such as the headboard of the bed and skirting boards of the rooms. There was even chewing gum stuck to one of the skirting boards. There were noticeable cobwebs scattered across both rooms. Upon pointing this out to the ‘hotel manager’, we were told that the rooms were of the highest cleanliness. Thirdly, the maintenance of the room was in dire condition. There was wallpaper falling off both rooms we were given, the headboard had broken and the mattress had significant lumps and dips across both mattresses. Fourthly, the attitude of the hotel manager was our biggest problem. All complaints made about the standard of our room were brushed aside as if irrelevant without taking the time to come down to the room to observe our areas of concern. We were clearly told upon complaining that all other hotel rooms were fully booked and nothing could be done to assist us. This proved to be untrue as several minutes after our complaints sat with the manager, we were informed a room had been made available for us. However, this was of an equally poor standard, as evidenced by the attached. Finally, the manager remained insistent that he only wanted to talk to me, as opposed to my female partner whom he refused to look at the entirety of our exchange. When my partner tried to address the manager, he would overlook all her comments and refer only to me. He clearly took umbrage towards her by solely focusing on me, despite my partner presenting valuable points of concern with good grace and decorum. The culmination of these factors resulted in an easy decision being made to stay elsewhere that evening, at a significant personal cost.

Novotel London Paddington
4/545 Reviews
The hotel is very close to Paddington Station of which you can take tube, railway & Airport Express. It just takes 8 mins walking distance from Paddington station to the hotel. The internal facilities are maintained in good condition and the staff are helpful & efficient. It's a good experience and I will definitely reserve it again when I travel to London next time.

The hotel is very good, the facilities are complete, clean, the surrounding community is convenient, civilized, there is a garden behind, like the small Hyde Park, it is recommended to walk to Notting Hill, the scenery along the road is highly recommended.
Three Falcons
4.3/541 Reviews
Marylebone
I can highly recommend this place. If you’re looking for a comfortable low cost room in central London then look no further. Great value at under £100 for a Friday night. Try getting a Travelodge for that. The bedroom while on the small side was modern, well appointed and with aircon, a very comfortable king sized bed and an excellent recently fitted out ensuite with a great shower. I couldn’t fault it. It was also very quiet. Our only regret was that we didn’t have time to sample the Indian food in the restaurant downstairs. It looked and smelled great (although that didn’t permeate to the hotel area). We would definitely use the Three Falcons again.
Comfort Inn Edgware Road
3.5/540 Reviews
Marylebone
I chose this hotel for my family vacation based on the Comfort Inn name. We have always enjoyed the quality of Comfort Inn hotels in our previous travels. This particular hotel does NOT live up to the Comfort Inn name. It didn't feel structurally sound nor safe. The floor felt like it was crumbling under our feet in certain areas of the room. It sounded like people walking above us were going to come through the ceiling. The carpet was filthy. We could not see out or open the window -- it appeared to be nailed shut and there was something hanging over it on the outside. Breakfast options were extremely limited. So disappointed! BTW, we stayed in room 101.
Space ApartHotel
4/536 Reviews
Small hotel in a residential area, the room decoration is a bit long, but the area is not very small for two people to live. The bathroom is very small. The boy feels very small. Especially the hair dryer stops for 30 seconds. The impatient person must bring their own! There are several supermarkets around, heating, that is, the food that may be eaten can also be brought over and easy to eat. The subway station has two stations very close. Walk slowly for 5-10 minutes.
