This is a very good hotel, as long as you know what to expect. It is on a street where many town homes have been converted to hotels like this. I believe that this is one of the better ones. It is very clean and well kept. The breakfast is exceptionally good. But don't expect larger rooms or much beyond... more

We stayed here for 4 nights. The hotel was comfortable; the room was small and the bed okay, but the best thing is the breakfast which is cooked for you. This hotel is a good base for getting around London and there is a good selection of eating places around the hotel. Not the best hotel I have been in... more

This is one of a series of hotels on the same street that used to be Victorian homes. It is one of the nicer. The room was nice, but small. The bed was very comfortable. We unfortunately didn't have much of a view. The breakfast was included in the rate and was pretty tasty. The staff for the most part... more

Yes, if you want a spotless clean hotel with very helpful and efficient staff in a fabulous location, this is the place to stay. We just loved the Darlington. We stayed in London for 4 days prior to a tour and booked a suite which gave us plenty of room to relax. Well worth the extra cost. This was one... more

We stayed her for 5 nights in June and found the staff very helpful and friendly. The rooms where clean and breakfast very nice. Great location to Paddington station and walking distance to Oxford St. Would stay her again. more

We recently returned from a 13 night stay at the Darlington. There were 6 in our travel party. We stayed in the triple twin room #3 and the family room #5. Both rooms were well equiped, clean, and comfortable. We had stayed in room 3 before and room 5 was new to us. We loved room 5. It is a... more

If you are looking for a great hotel located near Paddington Station, this is the place! Very clean, nice rooms, quiet, helpful staff and a fabulous breakfast! The hotel is situated on a boulevard with beautiful trees and lovely old buildings. It's close to the tube, bus and within walking distance of Hyde Park. I would definitely stay here again! more

As a solo female traveller I think The Darlington was the perfect hotel to stay at during my time in London... Firstly, it is very easy to locate. Catch the Hawthorw express train from the airport to Paddington Station & you can either walk or catch a cab to the hotel as it's around the corner. I took a cab... more
