Royal Park Hotel

I booked a room with a queen four poster for my parents (a 49th wedding anniversary trip) based on the reviews here. While they are a bit hard to please, I was very disappointed to learn that they did not get the room I booked. The bathtub had a hump in the middle that made it difficult for my mother (5' 4") to stand upright. Worst of all, for most of their 12 day stay, their sleep was interrupted by people stomping around in the room above theirs (my father thought they had a card game going on). No accommodation was offered when they... more

My daughter and i stayed here for 2 nites. i chose the hotel based upon trip advisor reviews. this hotel was a great value in a very expensive city. our room had adequate space, was efficently laid out, and had some nice extra touches (bathrobes, slippers). the staff was friendly, helpful, courteous. the location is good...walk easily to the tube and to paddington station. my daughter and i also stayed at a 5 star hotel in rome on the same trip. it was nothing but a hassle from the moment we checked in. the royal park was a much... more

Just got back from three nights at the Royal Park. I'd stay again and recommend it highly. With the prices in London so high, this hotel was a very good value. We stayed at this hotel October 9-12, 04. I booked it based on reviews on this website and we were not disappointed. We've had mixed luck in London in the past and we we both breathed a big sigh when we entered our room. The room was beautifully appointed, just enough space. Everything was high quality and five star standards. Great beds, Frette sheets, soft robes, good fixtures,... more

Completely agree with all the other rave reviews! Beautiful hotel, great location, excellent, friendly staff! Stayed for 3 nights in 3rd week of September. Their weekend package for an executive double room inclusive of continental breakfast was a good deal for a good-sized room with a king bed. We're only sorry we spent such long days sight-seeing that we missed the afternoon tea and evening champagne!

We stayed at The Royal Park Hotel for 10 nights in September 2004. The hotel was really beautiful, full of antiques. Our room was a nice size and very romantic. At home we have a very expensive mattress and its hard to sleep in hotels. My husband and I slept like babies! They have really good mattresses and their bathrooms are really nice. The fixtures are top notch. The water pressure was great. The flat screen TV was a treat. The staff was incredible. Every time we walked through the door, they smiled and were soooooo nice.

Spent three days in the second week of September, and found the Royal Park to be the perfect place to unwind after long days exploring London. While the rooms are smaller than usual by American standards, they are so perfectly appointed and maintained that I would bypass other four and five star hotels with larger rooms to stay here again. The rooms highlight the wonderful bed(s) and linens, and then surround them with antique furnishings that are both beautiful and functional. The staff was always gracious and helpful, and I found the... more

Found a great rate on the Royal Park Hotel from Luxurylink.com and found it was easy to book. The hotel is only a few blocks from Paddington Station, which hosts the train from Heathrow (the absolute best way to get into London). That alone give the hotel a leg-up. It was further convenient to the Tubes for Paddington Station and Lancaster Gate. The only drawback was the room we had was rather small and the place is not super-equiped for business, but given the small size, it was easier to make sure faxes did not get lost.

This is a wonderful hotel, very conveniently located, although a little hard to find at first since it is set back from the street. My husband emailed that we would arrive early, but we never expected a room to be ready at 8AM on a Sat.; yet they had one ready for us when we arrived. The room itself was very comfortable with a big bed and deep tub and very clean. Breakfast came with our package and was very filling. Staff there was incredibly helpful. Location is easy for everything, with two tube stations nearby. Nice neighborhood,... more

My mother and I stayed here in the beginning of September 2004. Everyone else has said it all. This place is wonderful! We got a weekend rate of 135 pounds (+vat) including breakfast. All rates include afternoon tea and scones from 3-5 and evening champagne and canapes from 7-9 (either in your room or the drawing room). This is definitely a 5* hotel. The concierge actually showed us to our room (a twin-executive room on the fourth floor with windows overlooking a nearby street/houses). Everytime we walked into the lobby the staff would... more

We stayed here on August 2nd for 3 nights with our 4 year old daughter. Hotel was fabulous - Spotlessly clean, beautiful beds, robes and slippers for us all, flat screen t.v., complimentary champagne in the evening, tea and scones in the afternoon, newspaper in the morning, friendly and efficient staff.... need I go on!! definitely recommend this hotel to anyone. We will definitely return. A true gem in London.
