6/10 Good

Hmmm. Where to start. The staff was very friendly and should not be blamed for the condition of the hotel. However, we booked a room with a double bed and a single. It had three small twin beds. And really they had no business putting three beds in that room. We had no place to put our bags. We had to step over them the whole time there. There was a lift but it only went to the third floor. The room was on the fourth floor. The ceiling was so low and slanted that our son, who is 5'10" hit his head at least ten times. There was a small open wardrobe but no drawers of any kind. There was also a general odd smell in the entire place as well. For the amount of money we spent, I would expect just a bit more.

Nitin, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The location of the hotel was very good, the area was clean and decent, it was very close to the metro station. It was very good to have the breakfast option, we stayed in the family room for five people, the beds were large, the room was clean, it was so hot that we were overwhelmed at night. Brunel Hotel was a very good choice for us.

Value for money

Staff were lovely, breakfast was lovely. Room was small but had everything we needed, maybe the bathroom could do with a refurb. Only issue I had was the noise but it was good value for money and great location

8/10 Very good

Everything in this hotel is small - but in a great way. The rooms are small but comfortable. The elevator is tiny but fun - the kids loved it! Breakfast area is very small, but the staff is SO GOOD at keeping food flowing and keeping tables cleaned/cleared so everyone can sit down. The food was top rate - REAL EGGS which is a rarity in any hotel. We'd absolutely stay again!

8/10 Very good

The is a perfectly okay hotel! Nice staff, Good location, comfy beds and an okay breakfast! If you are in London to experience the city and only need a place to sleep, this works very well. Expectations is according to price. Close to Paddington station, some restaurant and polite staff.

Lovely location! However, room bathroom was smelly, safety box did not work and there was no view from window. Due to these no more stars.

I love the proximity of the hotel to public transportation. Having a free breakfast is also a plus for me. They need to fix that lift and their floor. Every step squicks.

Good little hotel

Great location at the end of the Elizabeth line, so made getting into the centre of London easy. Nothing major to complain about. Rooms even with fan on was hot and had to leave window open 24/7. Pleasant and welcoming staff, bag drop off and pick up were excellent. For a 3* hotel though I would've expected an English cooked breakfast to be offered.
J, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

It was a good location if you’re interesting in being close to Hyde Park and Buckingham Palace. The facility is old so it made a lot of noise at night and the road it was on was also extremely loud. Only one light worker in the room.
Alyxandria, 5-night trip

2/10 Poor

Do not stay at this property. It was dirty and moldy and the bathroom showers failed to work. The elevator was broken the entire time.
Thomas, 6-night trip

4/10 Fair

Something to laugh about later

When we arrived, the rooms we booked were not available and the next day they had changed rooms for us without informing us. as with all moves, things got lost in the move. Poor breakfast buffet, the toilet did not flush every time, hardly any water pressure in the shower, water damage in the rooms, extremely much in need of renovation, dirty carpet. A Fawtly tower experience
Camilla, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Basic, unhelpful staff not clean

Hotel was dated, run down booked and paid for a large family room and ended up with a single. On arrival nobody was prepared to do anything about it. Appreciated that it was fully booked but getting the refund was laborious and painful. On check in simple questions were also difficult too. Room was not great, shower head broken, shower not clean enough. For £135 give it a miss!
Thomas, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Deeply disappointed

I was disappointed. I had made the reservation months ago for my family, then tried to cancel minutes later as a Hilton property was the same price. I was denied by property management. But during our stay we had cockroaches in our room. I killed 6 and who knows how many others passed thru. Management was not available except seemingly extreme early hours. No consideration for our discomfort.
Robert, 7-night trip

4/10 Fair

Picked this property because they had an elevator in the description and this was critical for me and travel partner. They had a reasonable cost so I booked two rooms for they are limited for two bed options. Very disappointed elevator out of service and no estimate when it would be repaired. Excuse was it was near the holidays (17th Dec) and could not find a repair person. Were there 3 days and did not see anyone attempting to repair. They accommodated us with rooms on the second floor. They also had someone help carry out bags up and down. Did not like having to climb stairs up and down to restaurant and entry area.

8/10 Very good

It was a Great Stay!

What made my stay great were the staff members of this hotel. On the day of check in, I was advised that the lift is broken and there will be a team member who will take the suitcase up for me. The breakfast was a bonus and enjoyed it. What made such a big difference is the Receptionist Blessita who was very helpful and understanding. 10 minutes prior to check out, my massive suitcase was damaged and I had to buy an emergency suitcase immediately. She accommodated me by extending my check out so I can buy a suitcase. Once I finally checked out she was very kind to offer tea as she can see how stressed I was. Even the housekeeper was very understanding and helpful. Overall, everyone in Brunel Hotel were amazing even the night Receptionist and the guy who brought my suitcase up to the staff in the Breakfast room. My room was cosy and I enjoyed my stay! Thank you! 🙏❤️
