I got a real deal on the price through booking.com paying only £44.00 for a night. So everything was good. Had I paid the normal going rate I wouldnt have been so pleased. The room was comfortable and warm, with an en suite shower and toilet. There was tea and coffee making facilities but no biscuits, but for £44.00 you wont hear any complaints from me lol.

Unable to park near the hotel

If you need a cosy place to stay and to explore London, than Barry House is a superb option. The cost benefit ratio is very good. The Lodon Paddington Tune station is 3 minutes away, lots a restaurants nearby. My favorite was the Paramount Lebanese Restaurant in the same street, just 2 minutes down the road, next to the Subway station. The hotel as such is cosy and clean and very quite. Don't expect luxuries. My room had no fridge, but the window platform served as a viable alternative. The hotel staff loaned me an adapter for the British socket. Bring your own, in case the Barry has all loaned their spare adapters. The Hilton Paddington is just 3 minutes down the street. If you are ready to spend 8 times the Barry House rate, stay with the Hilton. I would always prefer the Barry House and spend the savings for things that you can take home as souvenirs or gifts.

The remote control did not work properly. 2 lamps did not work.

A five minutes walk from Paddington tube and railway.. A very pleasant and helpful young man on reception. I was allowed to upgrade from a single with lots and lots of stairs to a double on the lower ground for a small fee and no fuss. A very clean room, en suite shower and wc. Clean, fresh white bed linen and towels and soap provided. Lots of hot water to shower. Comfortable double bed.

The room had a French door/window leading onto a tiny decked 'courtyard' . The door would not lock. IT NEEDS FIXING PLEASE. I slept with a chair in front of it although it opened outwards. Tea and coffee making facilities in the room would have been wonderful.

Brilliant location! Exceptional staff - kind and attentive. You will read a review below from someone staying the same time I stayed where the reviewer was complaining about a staff person knocking on his door - this was because he was flooding his bathroom which trickled down to mine. The staff did there very best to deal with this unfortunate chap and had the issue rectified in no time (much to his embarrassment given he flooded his own room). Overall, you get what you pay for - this is a budget hotel. One that is clean and one that gives you a great location!!

Noisy in the room by the front desk, but very quiet past 10.

I was travelling alone, and booked a single room, but was given a spacious room with a double and single bed, so perhaps I got lucky, but it was very good value. Good hot shower and water pressure, sheets very clean and comfy bed. Tea and coffee and kettle in the room and a hair dryer too.

Furniture and decor is a little tired but for the price this did not matter at all to me.

simple room with one double and one single bed. very good value for miney

location and value for money

We really liked the location. The room was clean and private. It is a traditional European style room, meaning it is a little on the small side, but has the necessities for a nice stay - comfortable bed, en-suite bath.

Room on the fourth floor was a lot of stairs to hike up with bags. If you have a lot of bags try to get a lower floor room.

Lovely staff, larger than average room (they gave me a twin even though I only booked a single), comfortable and quiet room at top of building, hairdryer provided, tea/coffee-making facilities provided, clean bathroom with powerful hot shower, great value-for-money (£45 a night). Definitely one of the better budget London hotels I've stayed at - the overall rating by others is a fair reflection.

Room was up 4 increasingly narrow and steep flights of stairs, so may not be suitable for infirm. Rooms on lower floors better in this respect.

I've stayed at this hotel numerous times. Its in a great location, staff are friendly (the owner is a good guy) and its really well priced. Old fashioned hotel but you can't complain for the money.

The only thing people should be aware of with this hotel is that there's no lift, and it can be challenging for some people to climb to the top floor. But that's no slight on the hotel. it's an old building.

TLDR: Great location, helpful and lovely staff, okay sized room. The location was amazing, a brief 3 minute walk from Paddington station where multiple underground lines are available; less than 10 minutes away from Hyde Park (Victoria Gate) and 15 minutes from Oxford street (all by walk). Many coffee shops, restaurants and grocery stores are available in the area, mainly in the station area which makes it really easy to grab a coffee and some breakfast in the morning. On the other hand, the staff was amazing, they were really helpful and made us feel comfortable during our stay. I’ve stayed in many places in the area so far, as we visit the city multiple times a year and the triple room’s size was okay, we could fit in with all our bags, it’s safe to say that it was a great value for the price we payed.

On our first night, when it was raining, the rain was really loud outside our window (on the ground floor). The window could not be opened which would have been good to refresh the air in the room. Also the room was very close to reception, therefore we could hear louder guests check-in even at midnight.
