Henry VIII - London, United Kingdom 

"Good, clean value"
Posted: Mon, Nov 23 2009
I read the reviews on this site before I went and, to be honest, I had pretty low expectations as a result. A friend and I booked last minute for an overnight stay to shop and go to the theatre. We got a great deal via the web and paid little more than ?60 for a twin room. The room was relatively modern, clean and comfortable. It was a decent size too. The view was generously called a 'city view' but was actually a wall. However, as I wasn't there to enjoy the scenery, this didn't matter at all. Reception staff were friendly and efficient. The breakfast was good - huge choice from ham, cheese, fruit, cereal and toast to full English. All fresh and plentiful. The hotel is within a short walk of the underground and Paddington rail stations. All in all, for the price I paid, I was really pleased. Why pay more for a comfortable bed to sleep in on a weekend break? I would go again if I could secure a good last minute deal.
