Tune Hotel - Paddington - London

Enjoyed our stay at this basic services and yet clean and convenient (location-wise) hotel. Easy access to/from Heathrow with direct and fast train service from Paddington station which is an easy 5-minutes walk with luggage. Use of both Paddington and Edgware Rd Tube stations to other parts of London. Would stay at this hotel again if visiting London […] again. Read more

The value for the stay was very high. Low rates combined with clean accommodations in a location easily accessible to public transportation. One problem: the rooms do not have a telephone and therefore no wake up service available.

The stay at the hotel was great. Close to the center of London. Easy to grab the tube(subway).

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Pros: The hotel is very clean and in excellent shape, close to two underground stations, staff is really friendly, very small but comfortable rooms.. Cons: the beds are turned up every 3 days so if this is anoying for you better look somewhere else, personally I have no problem since I only use the room for sleeping and I make the bed every day, for […] the price this is a great place to stay in London.

Very pragmatic, and convenient. Ideal for the brief stay - very courteous and helpful staff, very clean and accomodating. Would stay again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Pro's: pleasant / helpful staff, great location - walking distance to Oxford St and to 2 tube stations. Very clean hotel Con's: rooms and bathrooms very small. Noisy hotel overall: automatic door closers for rooms slams the doors shut. Trains passing underground shake the hotel every 15 mins

Genuine Expedia guest review

I was looking for an inexpensive hotel that was clean and safe for a single traveler, and the Tune Hotel fit the bill. The hotel is new (open since summer 2012) so everything in the room was fresh and well kept. The room was small (just a few feet around the bed), but worked fine for a single person (room 201). Double Bed, TV, a few hangers, charging […] shelf for phones, and 2 side tables. Laminate floor, no carpet. No phone, no chairs, and no desk. Normally to keep it inexpensive, you pay for everything separately above the base price. Thru Expedia, the price included everything: Wifi, hair dryer, TV reception, shampoo/soap, towel, etc. Works well to save some $$ if you were only staying for a quick stop. My room was very quiet, with the only intrusion being a vibration when the tube would pass under the hotel every few min. It was odd enough to keep your head away from the headboard/wall, but, not enough to wake you up. I faced the interior courtyard, so no street noise. The desk said they give quieter rooms to guests staying longer days. 5 min walk from Paddington Station (tube or Heathrow Express train) or the Edgewater tube station. I would walk to Oxford shopping street or Hyde Park in 15/20 min. The walk to Oxford is through a nice busy middle-eastern neighborhood. Felt safe even late. 24 Hour Tesco supermarket across the street - good to get breakfast for mornings. Its a smidge from being central, but because of the tube (or enjoying walking), it was not a problem. Read more

Great value hotel. New since June 2012. Rooms are basic but functional. Room service every 3 day. Central location and easy access to Heathrow. Very helpful staff.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This hotel, in a bustling neighborhood east of Paddington Station, is run very much like the airlines. Most services are ala carte. You pay separately for TV, towel rental, daily cleaning, etc., though, since I booked through Expedia, TV and towels were included with the price. Lack of telephone was an impediment, however.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel is fairly modern. It is a budget hotel, so they charge for every service, but most things were included when booking through Expedia. It was very close to public transportation which made getting to and from the airport very easy. The room was a very good size. We only stayed one night (actually only about a few hours due to the early hour […] we had to get up to get to the airport), but the beds were comfortable. Considering how expensive hotels in London are, I felt it was a good deal. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel is conveniently situated for Paddigton station and the Edgeware road tube station. I stayed fro 3 days in Dec 2012. The rooms are clean and confortable. The Hotels.com rate includes everything, but the way the hotel works is the room rates are low and then everything is a chargeable extra, e.g. towels, cleaning, TV, internet. The internet […] speed is fine, supports Skype with only an occasional hiccup. The beds are comfortable, and the room is simple and easy to keep clean, through as you would expect in London small. I hope this model for hotels in London thrives as its great value and delivers exactly what most busy business travellers need, clean room, good bed, internet and no fuss. Read more

Size of room was very good considering it nis London. Bathroom small--makes you think of a ship's bathroom. Had a problem with outlets not working and no one from maintenance was working. Front desk gave me a key to another room for me to charge up my devices.

Early check-in is 5lbs but worth it. They will also keep your bags for 2lbs each if you want to do a last minute shopping spree or what not. The hotel is clean, the room is clean, and people are nice. The place is very convenient and there is a 24-hour Tesco Express market just across the streets. Many shops and restaurants just down the streets as […] well. We used the hotel to sleep and shower and it fits the purpose well. Read more

Excellent place and conveniently located. The Paddington Station is less than 5mins and you can get to anywhere from that station. Room is clean and the hotel is surrounded by many places to eat. This is a basic room for you to sleep and shower so you can go all over London to sight see. One advice, take the Heathrow Express from the airport to Paddington. […] Cost is 19 lbs and you will be there in less than 15mins. Read more

If your looking just for a place to sleep while you tour the town, this is it. The hotel is a brand new. But the Rooms are very very small . The location is awesome thou. Its located between Paddington and Edgeware station. Its within 5-10 min of shopping, marble arches (historical sites) and can catch pretty much any bus or train within walking distance […] from here. There is a grocery store, restaurants, pubs within 2 min. The staff was very helpful and super nice. Use them! They will book you shuttles for the airport ect. Now here is the down fall!!!! It is located by a Hospital, so ambulances do drive by with sirens . Your room may shake a little do to the trains. The hotel only cleans your room every 3rd day. You can have it cleaned or get new towels for a fee. But even with some of the negatives for the price and location this place is the best. SOME ADVICE! Buy the oyster card. It will get you on the trains and city buses for a week. UNLIMITED! It DOES NOT include the city tour bus. Read more

I liked the idea of a very nice hotel with limited service-it was a great value! I don't need my room cleaned and linens changed every day. Every third day was perfect. The location of the hotel was really nice, right in-between Paddington and Edgeware Rd undergrounds and very near Paddington above-groud. Lots of restaurants within walking distance […] and 2 drug stores and a Tesco express within a couple of blocks. My one complaint was noise heard from the hallway during the night. It also came with a "desk" but be aware, my 13" MacBook pro barely fit on it, hanging over the edge a bit-be prepared to sit on the bed to work :-) Read more

Nothing much to rave or rant about since the hotel just covers the bare essentials. Nice location since it's near a couple of Underground stations (Paddington and Edgware Road)

Genuine Expedia guest review

The room was clean. The location convenient. The room is very small. Everything is extra.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Hotel has a no frill-policy, meaning that they provide you the basics and everything else is an extra you have to pay for. This is not a bad thing considering that in London hotels can be very expensive. I liked this hotel for it's location: 5 minute walk to the closest tube station, 24-hour supermarket just across the street, the staff is very kind […] and helpful, and the room has enough space so you won't feel you are sleeping in a match box. Despite some reviews saying the bed was awful, we found it very good for our 4 night-stay. Shower was great; good pressure and temperature. You won't find any fancy stuff normally present in other hotels such as bathroom amenities or TV channels: everything has to be paid for. Even the hair dryer!. Fortunately, when booked by expedia all those add-ons were included. Even Wireless internet access. The hotel is surrounded by many great places where you can eat, even if you travel on budget. The neighborhood is entirely Arabic, as you can see from most of the stores offering it's products in that language. The hotel doesnt provide laundry services, but you can find a self-served Laundrette service just around the corner. Read more

I stay in this hotel for 9 nights! It will be a good hotel for a short stay like 1-2 days, but definitely not a choice for a long stay like me. When I check in, I was told that my room is on the first floor. I asked the receptionist immediately for a room change because I want higher level to avoid the tube noise. However, the receptionist told me even […] on the highest floor, you can still feel or hear the tube running. Ok well, I will see how it goes The rooms were only clean every 3 day! I am ok with that because I just take out my trash and used towel out the door everyday. After the cleaning was done after the third night, I see a towel was hang on the hangers in the toilet and I see hair on it. I was thinking was this the towel I put it outside my room this morning? Then I remember there's some dirt on it and I start to look for it and I found it!! They put a dirty towel on the hangers and pretend it is new! I was so disappointed at their service! Read more

The hotel was in a good location, close to the underground. There were restaurants in the area and a grocery store across the street. The room was small, but we had no problem moving around. The room was extremely clean, which is the most important thing to me. The staff was nice and helpful. The only negative was the bed, it was extremely hard.

Great location. 5 min walk to Heathrow express, metro and all bus routes. There was a small grocery store and drugstore right across the street. Staff was so welcoming and helpful. I felt safe in the neighborhood even late at night.

Stayed in a twin room on the 4th floor. Lots of space in the room. Pros: Good wifi internet. Comfy beds. Good price. Great shower. Quick walk to Edgeware Road and Paddington stations. Cons: No phone in room. No chair.

room was very well organised, but the bed was so uncomfortable and the noise from the hallway so loud, that I could not sleep very well, and checked out three nights early

This is a new hotel that opened in June 2012. Everything is clean and new. It is in a great location and just a short walk from the Edgeware Tube station. There is a 24 hour Tesco Supermarket directly across the street and several restaurants within walking distance and a Mark and Spencers at Edgeware and Praed St. This is a very affordable hotel and […] you get good value for the price you pay.

The rate on hotels.com included (slow) wifi, TV, towel rental (!) and use of the room safe, but we had to pay extra to check in an hour early. Oddly, the front desk only took cash (no cards), which seems strange for a no-frills hotel which expects to take lots of small payments for extras, so be warned. The room was very tiny for two: we couldn't have […] both our suitcases open at once so constant rearrangement was required, and there was no chair, but the bed was comfortable and the shower was good. Temperature control worked well, and everything was clean and modern. Location was also very convenient for our trip. Read more

We stayed in a large sampling of hotels over the course of our stay in London. Tunes Paddington was the least expensive hotel that we stayed in and probably our favorite thus far. The rooms are very small- room literally for just the bed and the bathroom- but unless you are planning on hanging out in your room on your trip to London, you really don't […] need anything more. The room had plenty of outlets to plug our various devices into, it was very clean, and very convenient to the tube. Only complaint would be that it would have been great to have just a few more square feet as our suitcases basically had to block us into the room because there wasn't room to put them anywhere else. Nonetheless, it was the best use of our money. The hotels that we spent more money on didn't provide us enough more that it was worth it. If I return to London I will without a doubt be staying in one of the Tunes hotels. Read more

The rooms were clean and well-kept, and if you book through Expedia you automatically get the add-ins like the towel pack, 24 hours of internet connection, and an in-room safe. They also have relatively cheap luggage storage, which we found very useful, as our train left a long time after the 10 AM check-out. We stayed here twice - the first time our […] room was extremely pleasant, with no problems at all. The second time, we were in the basement with no elevator access, and you could hear the trains in the Tube rumbling by every couple of minutes, but it wasn't loud enough to keep us awake. The hotel was very nice and well-situated to Paddington and Edgware Road Tube stations, so it was ideal for getting around London. Read more

Customer service not the best. Room very small, you must rent towels for your stay. One night stay only, I survived

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

First, let me start by saying that it is within near walking distance to Paddington Station, a tube station, which has the primary lines running through it. This convenience alone was worth the stay. Also, a 24 hour grocery store is located across the street making it easy to pop over if you forgot something. Upon entering the hotel and your room one […] can tell that the hotel is brand new. They did a fantastic job making the rooms comfortable. Knowing that rooms are quite small in Europe we were not expecting a large room; however, we had ample amount of space as we had a set back area in which we could fit all four large suitcases with room leftover. It was nice to be able to walk around the room and not be tripping over the suitcases. If one is used to American rooms, as I am, you may not like the fact that the room is only cleaned every three days, but this did not bother us. The fire alarm went off at 4 AM one morning during our stay, they had us back in the hotel within the hour and offered us complimentary services on our next stay. The hotel staff at times had difficulty understanding our requests, but were extremely helpful. If you are going to book this hotel book through Expedia. Our rate included all of the services that they charge additional fees for (towel rental, blow dryer, Wi Fi, and TV), which was nice to not have to worry about that upon arrival. Read more

The location was great - although a bit more of a hike from Paddington Station than we had anticipated. The room size was small but just fine. The room and bathroom were immaculate. My only real concern was that I found the bed was quite uncomfortable (hard) and the pillows were very thin with very little support.

Ideal location if you need to get to LHR via Paddington stn. The only downside was the uncomfortable bed but saying that would stay again

The Tune Hotel in Paddington was fine for an overnight 'crash. However, the room was described as 'Queen Room' when I booked it but we only had a small double bed.

But the hotel is surprisingly quiet, clean enough and […] convenient for Paddington so not bad overall. Read more

Room was small bt was clean and had modern finishings. We loved that the bathroom was spotless albeit tiny. If you wished to have housekeeping services; note- it was chargeable! Having booked our room at this website; wifi, towels, toiletries such as shampoo were free. So were the use of the safe in the room. Otherwise, I understand it was chargeable […] if you book directly with the hotel. The downside was that, as with most hotels in the UK and Europe, there were no kettles in the room to boil water. However, you may purchase a cup of hot water at the lobby along with coffees and teas. Staff were friendly and helpful. There was a Tesco express that stayed opened 24hours across the street. M&S, Valerie Pattiserie, several cafe's, fast food outlets were within walking distance. There were also 2 Underground stations in the vicinity. Overall value for money. Better than some budget hotels that we have stayed before. Read more

We stayed here for 5 nights in late March 2013, overall was an OK stay. Pros: Close to Paddington Station Underground, fairly cheap for a modern-ish hotel in London. Very nice and helpful reception staff. Comfy bed. Cons: Everything costs extra (TV, Internet, Towels, safe ect) and they are strict on this. Didn't make up our room until our 5th day, […] after requesting it. Built on an underground tunnel, so you get the regular shake and noise of the tram until the wee hrs of the morning, especially if you get a room on the lower ground level (like us), maybe request a room on an upper level. Small room (expected for London) but there is nowhere to put your luggage and nowhere to hang any clothes up. Would possibly stay here again if we couldn't get somewhere else cheaper. Read more
