the hotel is one of new HILTONs in London and it is nt as shabby as that one in Notting Hill for example. Art Deco decor in rooms is very tasteful and roomes are equipped with everything one may need in travel.
it has a separate exit to platforms of Paddington Station - it is a great plus if you are going to use Heathrow Express

This hotel is ideal if you care about the room itself not the hotel. Clean brand new rooms with great bathrooms (walk-in-showers only without a bath tub in all the rooms). Some rooms have patio (in case you want to smoke as this hotel is smoke-free entirely). The only bad thing about it is that its staff is not professional including the duty manager I had to speak to.
I broke a business trip to Europe with a weekend in London, and the newly-opened Indigo scored well enough here on TripAdvisor for me to give it a try. I'm very glad I did – the hotel is a delight, especially if (like me) you like to stay in small boutique designer hotels as an alternative to the usual 'business' hotels - even if they're five star ones, their sheer size and machine-like nature can get a bit much.
Indigo, on the other hand, is small enough for a personal touch. The rooms aren't large, although that's par for the course for London, and even the top-level 'king' is best described as 'cosy', but it's a cosy that works due to the attention to design, the colours and furnishings (indeed, if you're travelling solo you could so fine with the 'standard superior' room which has a queen bed, smaller flat-panel TV and slightly smaller room, and save some money over the king deluxe room). Bring your own iPod and drop it into the bedside clock-radio docking unit to enjoy your own music.
The location is tops, not just for the access to Paddington station but the #7 bus which in one direction takes can you to Portobello Road in Notting Hill (around 10 mins), and in the other whisks you to Oxford Circle (in maybe 15-20 minutes).
The staff are all incredibly helpful and genuinely nice; and yes, the Aveda toiletries are a wonderful touch.
A few tips for those contemplating a stop-over here:
* the rooms facing the street (London Street) can be a little noisy, at least mine was during the weekend nights – not from cars but from people. There's a surprising amount of foot traffic along the street, I suppose much to and from Paddington station but also to/from the many nearby hotels (the square opposite the hotel is almost full of mid-price and 'budget' hotels favoured by many young people).
* be wary of the heated towel rail in the bathroom – it's very hot, and in such a somewhat cramped space you could end up with burn marks on your buttocks. Drap a bathtowel over it and save your skin!
* if you dock your iPod into the bedside radio unit, don't forget to remove it before you leave!
* finally, before you book using any online service - even a discounter like LastMinute.co.uk – check the hotel's own rates. For my two night stay I found the hotel's own rate was 75 pounds ~cheaper~ than LastMinute.co.uk for the same room and included breakfast, which LastMinute did not.
A very clean hotel with excellent taste in decoration (actually, it gave us a lot of ideas for decoarting at home!). Stuff was very professional and polite. The overall feeling throughout our stay was that everything and everybody worked in order for us to have a nice time. If the price rermains reasonable, Indigo will be our hotel for every future trip to London.
My husband and I had a great experience at this hotel, everything was clean, staff very friendly and greeted us each time we went in or out of the hotel. Location very close to Paddington station, about 1 1/2 blocks from the station. Plenty of food, within a short walk from hotel. Wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.
We had a first floor room facing the front and did not hear any noise from the street.
Can anyone recommend a quiet hotel near Paddington station? I'm going to be in transit to Africa with a day in London on either end. I'd like someplace clean and pleasant, but I don't want to pay for the Ritz.

They have hotels arounf UK & IOR, and they are pritty dicent in price and decor.
Unusual for UK, they rent a room per nite not how many people are in the room. They also do family fooms, wich is very good value for money if you are traveling with family.
Happy travels,

You could try the Euro Hotel. I don't think there is a Premier Inn in the area. Paddington is not the quietest of areas, so you should ask for a room at the back, if possible. There are a lot of hotels in the Paddington area and I'm sure other VTers will come up with names.
shakespeare hotel -norfolk square - 5mins walk from outside the main entrance to the station
We liked the Hyde Park Radnor very much. It is quiet, has a nice breakfast (included) and a helpful staff and is about a 5 minute walk from Paddington. It is also about a 10 minute walk from Hyde Park. Their website is:
