With the extremely high prices for London accommodations, the Castleton Hotel was a great find and the room rate included wifi and a full English breakfast served 7am-9am which we made one day and missed the next. The location is great; two minutes walk from Paddington underground station and it was wonderful after a long day of sightseeing to only... More

Staying at the Castleton at the moment and finding everything good. Typical small London hotel with small rooms and narrow stairwells but the lift makes life easy. Room is clean and bed is comfy. Breakfast is basic buffet style with bacon, sausage, eggs, tomato and beans. Fills you up for the day. Close to the tube station and bus lines.... More

Though this hotel is in a great location, a block from Paddington Station and two blocks from Hyde park, don't bother. The beds were small and I could feel every spring. The retrofit baths smelled like a porta potty and felt like something from a cheap RV.

Thank you for posting your review of our hotel. You rightly pointed out that our hotel is superbly located for Hyde Park and the West End. I am not sure which room you were allocated as the majority of the beds were replaced in the last year. We do have modular bathrooms in some of the bedrooms as advertised. They... More

Stayed for 3 nights in a triple room during the Paralympics. Had a good stay overall, since the hotel has an excellent location, within a very short walk to 2 underground stations and Hyde Park, with lots of restaurants, fast-food joints and mini-markets down London Street. The room was tiny - something to be expected in London for this price... More

Stayed for one night for £84 in a double room. Clean and comfortable. Well located. Usual small room as you would expect in London. But bigger than many. Friendly, helpful and knowledgable staff. Nice breakfast.

Stayed for one night in the Castleton in a quad room as there were four of us going to a concert. It was perfect for what we needed, 2 minutes from the station, somewhere to put our heads down. Not sure i would stay again if I was staying for more than one night, but perfect when on a budget.... More

This is the second time I have stayed at the Castleton Hotel and it is always a pleasure. The staff are very friendly and helpful and nothing is too much of a problem. Each room has its own airconditioner so you can adjust it as you like. On the cooler days, the staff turn it on for you so that... More

Location is great, tube literally 2 minutes walk away, Hyde Park also. A choice of restaurants just across the road (Italian very good, Sawyers Arms or something, a pub, really great and authentic). My only problem with the place: the room! We had a quadruple room (family with 2 kids), and the Hotel has two of these. Both are located... More

The descriptions and pictures on booking sites give a bit of a false impression, the rooms are very small with double bedshaving one side against a wall making it difficult to get in and out for one person. The descriptions also said all rooms have large windows, but in room 108 you would need to be a highjumper just to... More
