Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Gresham Hotel is well-located, just a short walk from Paddington Station and near Hyde Park, making it easy to reach major attractions via the tube. Many guests found the hotel clean and affordable, especially appreciating the quad rooms with two double beds, along with the convenience of a fridge and microwave in the room. Some guests have mentioned the lack of variety at breakfast. However, the hotel offers luggage storage and a 24/7 front desk, adding to its convenience for travelers.

Paddington station stood a short walk away, providing easy access to transportation. Hyde Park was also nearby. Many buses and the underground are just steps away, really convenient.

weak shower limited cutlery

The room was smaller than I expected. It was difficult to move around the bed. The shower had weak water pressure and inconsistent hot water. Breakfast was disappointing. The full English option had limited items that seemed precooked. There was no cutlery available initially and a knife was not provided upon request
