Darlington Hyde Park Reviews

Stayed here for a short break to celebrate my birthday. We stayed in room 303 at the front of the hotel, which was very roomy, clean and comfortable. The weather was extremely cold during our stay, but the hotel was warm everywhere. Not too noisy from the street below at night so we had reasonable sleep. No bar at the hotel but a good breakfast room at lower ground level. All the hotel staff are extremely friendly and helpful and the breakfast was buffet style with cooked options too and was acceptable. The location of the Darlington is ideal as it is within a few minutes of great bus links (which we always prefer to use) and is only a 5 minute walk from Edgware Road and also Hyde Park. Would certainly stay here again.

A breath of fresh air amongst a sea of London hotels offering poor service and pokey hotels at silly prices.
Only criticism is, I'd rather pay a few pounds more for better quality ingredients in the cooked breakfast, which was mediocre.

This hotel came highly recommended by a friend and I was not disappointed. Smart hotel in a quiet location but very convenient for Paddington station and underground links. Excellent breakfast, nice room and staff very helpful. Would definitely stay there again.

Having stayed in some less desirable London hotels, we were pleasantly surprised here. Location was excellent-- close to Paddington Station and nice restaurants, and yet still quiet. Room was impeccably clean, breakfast was a nice combination of hot & cold options. We'd definitely stay here again.

Reasonably priced, clean, comfortable and quiet. Within walking distance of Paddington and close to Oxford St.

For price paid accomodation was comfortable and clean, only drawback was not overlooking the front of building and room was fairly dark,deue to lack of natural light.
Good choice for breakfast.

One of the better hotels I have stayed at, which is convenient for Paddington Station, and is reasonably priced. Like most, it does not have a restaurant, so I tried the 'Room Service' scheme which they subscribe to, whereby local restauaranrts deliver dinner for an extra price. It took over 1.5 hours to arrive and was terrible, because a) it was cold, and b) the various packages had been turned upside down a couple of times by the delivery person, and they provide no cutlery!!!!. Do not use this service.

We stayed at the Darlington Hotel due to it's location (close to Paddington Stn) and the positive reviews of others. We would echo what has generally been said before. The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was plentiful, tasty and set you up for the day ahead. The hotel was very clean and had a welcoming feel about it.. My room (a single en-suite) was a little small but it was fine for the duration of my stay. The other room we booked (a double en-suite) was quite a bit bigger. We are hoping to visit London again soon and will use this hotel for sure.

We stayed with my sister overnight in a twin beds room. The room was clean, new furniture, the bathroom was clean, enough towels, room not too small. Breakfast was OK. The staff was very helpful, leaving our bags in storage after check-out the next day was no problem. Also we wanted to check in earlier than their standard check in time, that also was not a problem. Generally for the price we paid I would say the quality was quite good. I would recommend this hotel.
