A Luxury Hotel Just a Stone’s Throw From Paddington

The imposing Georgian facade of the Shaftesbury Paddington Court Hotel creates an impression of glamour and luxury and it’s an impression which the interior of the hotel more than lives up to. To begin at the beginning, however, the location of the hotel, just around the corner from Paddington train station,

makes it the ideal place to choose when you want to sample a variety of the attractions which the centre of London has to offer, not least because it minimises the stress involved in actually travelling to London in the first place. At the end of a long journey from somewhere else in the UK or even a different country altogether, the last thing any traveller wants is to have to undergo one final time consuming trip in a bus, train or taxi. The fact that Paddington station is a shirt walk away ensures that this isn’t the case, and makes for a relaxing and stress free start to your stay in London.

The location also means that getting out and about in the rest of London is easy to arrange, since several Tube stations are just a short walk away, and the underground system, once accessed, can be used to travel all over the capital, between places, which, if measured simply by distance, would be too far apart to see in a single day. The use of the tube, however, ‘shrinks’ the city to a much more user-friendly size and makes it easier to tick off all of those tourist attractions you’ve arrived determined to see.

Despite this, however, exploring London can still be an exhausting business, and that’s why it will be so good to know that you’ve got a stylish, comfortable room waiting for you at the end of the day. The Paddington Court is a 4 star hotel, which means that you can take certain high standards for granted, but that doesn’t stop everyone concerned going out of their way to provide those little extra touches which will turn your stay into something truly memorable. When you arrive in your room, for example, you’ll find a bottle of complimentary mineral water waiting for you, to stand beside the complimentary tea and coffee making facilities which are available throughout your stay. All of the rooms are air conditioned which, combined with the large and comfortable beds, will help to ensure that you get a good night’s sleep, as will the luxurious bedding provided. Each room has an en suite bath or shower room, free WIFI, a flat screen satellite TV and a safe in which you can store your valuables, as well as a telephone, an iron and ironing board and a selection of free daily newspapers

The staff working at the hotel are all multilingual and the reception is open 24 hours a day, meaning that somebody will always be ready willing and available to deal with any problems which might arise. Guests also have the exclusive use of a fitness room, which might come in handy when it comes to burning off the effects of the daily complimentary full English breakfast.
