Albro House Hotel

Very friendly owner, location is short walk from Paddington Station, very very convenient!! Rooms are cosy and comfy, only con was no lift, so if you get a room on the above floors, will need to lug the luggage up the slightly narrow staircase. Overall, will definitely stay there again my next visit!

I stayed here with my young son for 2 nights and it was perfect for what we wanted. A stones throw from Paddington and the owners were very friendly and obliging too. Our bedroom was on the 3rd floor (we counted 70 ish steps), so no good for anyone with a dodgy knee or with mobility issues as there's no lift. Breakfast was another flight of stairs to the basement so we certainly got a good workout! The bedroom was small but clean, as was a very small WC with shower cubicle with incredible water pressure! Our twin room was perfect for the 2 of us but a couple/ family would want bigger. It had TV, drawer space, wardrobe, cabinet, kettle/ cups, milks & coffee sachets. The "full English" was a bit lacklustre with a small tepid polish type sausage, dollop of beans, egg, bacon and 1/2 tomato but was enough for me as I didn't want toast. It was swimming in grease though and I saw another guest dabbing his breakfast with a napkin. No brown bread/ decaf options were available. My son had toast / cereal / croissant and he was happy with that. I was also able to put my rucksack in their office space until I needed to pick it up. I'd absolutely recommend it as a no frills option and you can't beat it for station proximity. 4/5

Very polite and friendly staff! Central located with good connections to town and airport. However: Dirty carpet in our room! Pen graffiti on the wall, (made apparently by earlier guests)! Boring breakfast, if one chooses English breakfast then there is charge of £7:00 … This was not mentioned in the advertisement, so I complained and got it for free…. (It wasn’t worth the hassle … So, if it was cleaner and tastier, I would have given 5 stars… For now it deserve not more then 3 stars…

Albro House is a great place to stay. Cosy, clean and very friendly staff. We had a small issue with hot water and the owner immediately responded and tried to fix it. The location is also great, close to Paddington and Lancaster Gate Underground station. I can absolutely recommend it, just be aware that there are no elevators in the building.

Stayed 1 night before flying home after solo trip to England. Manager was very helpful, great breakfast included (continental, extra cost for more). Had great rate for (as expected) tiny room up many many stairs (no lift, which I was aware of and had no problem with, but could be an issue for others). Was great value for the cost for me, I've stayed in a few other properties in the area (Sussex Garden near Paddington), this one was one of the better ones.

Nice little hotel, great situation, close to Paddington station & Hyde Park. We stayed for one night as attending BST Hyde Park. Room was on very top floor, so do check when booking as quite a hike up there! But room was clean, shampoo & soap provided & bed was comfy. It was hot, but small fan provided which was a god-send. Breakfast was right down in basement and very wide variety of foods offered. It would of been easier to have a menu tbh, as the owner simply asked 'what do you want?' Which kind of leaves you flumoxed! You pay for the location, but compared to other hotels around there, it was very a reasonably priced budget hotel. Don't expect the Ritz, if you ain't paying for it!

My arrival was much delayed, so the host telephoned to make sure I was coming, was altogether very understanding and waited up to check me in. A cosy quiet room. Good bed and breakfast. Recommended!
