I have stayed in this hotel for three nights and I'm very disappointed with the quality of service for the price I've paid. At the moment (April 2012), there is an ongoing construction site inside the hotel (I haven't seen this being mentioned anywhere), so they're builders and contractors trespassing. When I've mentioned to the receptionist that I've smelled cigarette... More

Chrysos is one of the better hotels of its kind. The rooms have a fair size (meaning you can pass easily between the wall and the beds), bathroom was fresh and the personnel very friendly. English breakfast is included which is unusual. It was ok to switch fried egg to scrambled egg. The geographical position is excellent close to Paddington... More

Good hotel for a quick London stay. Located 2 1/2 blocks from Paddington station on a quaint block of hotels, it provides easy access to the metro, buses and direct trains to London Heathrow. The room itself was comfortable, spacious, though not incredibly modern and was fairly clean. Excellent heating! The bath had fresh fixtures, but could have been a... More

We wanted a smallish hotel, at a reasonable price, with a neighborhood feel and we got it all with the Chrysos Hotel! It overlooks an adorable park, is just a few blocks from Paddington Station, Hyde Park and Marble Arch. Nearby are plenty of pubs and restaurants, several neighborhood groceries, a Barclay's bank, and shops. Even so, it's a quiet... More

Did I like it? Yes! Did I like everything about it? No! This hotel is in a great location. I found it to be, fairly clean, quiet & comfortable and very convenient to Paddington Station (great for getting around the city and transport to and from Heathrow). My room was very small with one twin sized bed. That was no... More

The first thing we noticed as we arrived was the friendly and helpful staff at the Reception. They allowed us to store my daughter's wheelchair in a very convenient place and helped us to make our way to the lift. The hotel itself is very attractively decorated, and despite being New Year's Eve, very peaceful. Everywhere was clean, warm and... More

I used airline miles for my stay. Had I actually spent money, I'd probably have some different things to say. The place was very clean, I will say that. The public areas and my room were spotless. It could've used some fresh paint here and there. I stayed in a standard single. It was small, certainly by American standards, but... More

Excellent location but very poor standard indeed. Room was very uninviting and looked like it had been furnished from a jumble sale. Dimly lit and cold. You are unable to turn the heating on or off and the room is very cold. Bathroom was ok. Great for Paddington station and lots of restaurants and cafes nearby. Breakfast was provided but... More
