In der Lobby und auf den Bildern sah erstmal alles toll aus. Unsere Reservierung wurde zunächst nicht gefunden - das Personal an der Rezeption war jedoch freundlich und hilfsbereit, sodass das Problem schnell gelöst werden konnte. Das Zimmer war wirklich winzig, dafür aber recht hübsch eingerichtet. Der erste Eindruck war positiv. Das Bad hatte sogar […] eine Wanne. Auf den zweiten Blick fielen ein paar Sachen unangenehm auf: - es zog sehr (!!!) stark (Fenster schloss scheinbar nicht richtig) - es gab keine Seife und Zahnputzbecher - auf den zweiten Blick war das Bad nicht grad blitzblank - sehr hellhörig (Morgens lautes Geklapper aus dem Frühstücksraum auf gleicher Etage, sowie Treppen-/Laufgeräusche aus umliegenden Zimmern) Ich war mit meinem Freund für 2 Nächte während einer kurzen Städtereise aufgrund der Lage dort. (ca 2 km zur Oxford Street, Rest mit Tube von Bayswater gut zu erreichen) Wir fielen abends ohnehin total groggy ins Bett - dafür ist es in Ordnung. Wer aber einen leichten Schlaf hat, bzw, häufiger Pausen im Hotelzimmer einlegen will, ist hier nicht so richtig aufgehoben... Mehr

Wie sehr Häufig, ein preisgünstiges sauberes zentrales Hotel in London zu finden ist sehr schwer. Der Gran Royale London Hyde Park kann diese erwartungen ausreichend ausfüllen. Das einzige Makel, das Doppelzimmer war klein und der Dusche sogar sehr Eng.

Authentische Hotels.com-Gästebewertung

Positiv: Super Lage!!!!! (Underground Bayswater 2 min. zu Fuß erreichbar); Freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal, Zimmer waren sauber! Negativ: Zimmer sind sehr klein, nur ein kleines Fenster im Doppelzimmer (dies lies sich nicht richtig öffnen). Sonstiges: Sehr netter Pub um die Ecke!!!! Fazit: Für einen Kurztrip würden wir dieses Hotel jederzeit […] wieder buchen!! Mehr

super Lage, sehr gute Verkehrsanbindung, viele Sehenswürdigkeiten auch zu Fuß erreichbar. Hotelpersonal kennt sich aber in London bzw. der Umgebung nicht aus. Die Zimmer sind sehr sehr klein, aber was soll man in dem Zimmer auch außer schlafen, also vollkommen ausreichend.

Ein gut geführtes und ih ausgesprochen zentraler Lage von London liegendes Hotel. Das Zimmer war für zwei Personen sehr klein. Auf dem einizgen zur Verfügung stehenden Schrank war schon etwas längere Zeit nicht geputzt worden. Wir bemerkten es erst, als wir eine Tasche, die wir zu raumsparenden Zwecken dort hinaufgestellt hatten, wieder herunter holten […] und zunächst in einer Staubwolke standen. Aber das war auch der einzigste Wermutstropfen. Sonst ist dieses Hotel sehr empfehlenswert. Wir würden es gern bei unserer nächsten London-Reise wieder nutzen. Mehr

Location is great - near Kensington Garden, 15 mins from Paddington, 30 min transfer to Heathrow. Rooms are nice. Lobby has old-fashioned wooden style.

Authentische Hotels.com-Gästebewertung

We really liked the stained glass/dark wood look of the hotel and the lobby did not disappoint- an enormous flower display does wonders! The bar is a little small but has interesting history. It is a shame the hotel does not make more of the history of the building- it would have been nice to know some of the past it has. The rooms were small but had […] everything that was needed for a decent night's stay. Very helpful staff on hand to help. Very accommodating with a room problem. Mehr

Pleasant staff gave me an upgrade to a club double. Though very, very small, the room had everything I needed. Would not be comfortable for very large people, but it suited my needs really well. Very helpful and pleasant staff.

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. I have stayed at many hotels in London, and for the price, this was fantastic. It is a really beautiful old hotel, and although the room was a little small, it didn't feel cramped like most London hotels. I would absolutely stay here again, for business or fun.

Authentische Hotels.com-Gästebewertung

The single room in the hotel was on the ground floor in the corner - a very small room (had 3 steps to get to the bed!) but it was clean, the bed was comfy. Fire alarm went off at 3am in the morning which was a bit of a rude awakening, apparently someone forgot that the hotel was a non-smoking one! The location of the hotel is fantastic, a stones throw […] away from Hyde Park, Queensway and Bayswater tube stations and great bus links into Oxford St. Mehr

i liked the hotel and area fine, however, the window in my room was broken (literally pulled away from the frame at the top) and it was a bitter cold, very windy night. The wind and noise of the road came right in but I was too tired to ask to be moved. The heating made up the difference for the most part. The good news is when I made a complaint and […] showed them the issue I got a personal email from the FOH manager thanking me for letting them know and offering to make good on my next stay. I would go back and give them a second try. Mehr

original room was fine but the wardrobe was badly designed/installed which meant there wasn't enough room to hang shirts or jackets from the hanging rail which was very odd. I raised this with reception who moved me to a larger room with better wardrobe space.

My wife and I had a very pleasant stay in a beautiful hotel in a great and convenient neighborhood. Yes, our room was small but we knew that going in. Great lobby, cute little bar, and everyone was lovely...

Do not what ever you do stay in any basement rooms unless you want a six am early morning call as they throw the laundry down the steps directly outside your room ....Not sure that was a queen sized bed more like a standard double Basement windows seriously in need of double glazing

Authentische Hotels.com-Gästebewertung

Hotel is around the block from the Bayswater tube stop, very convenient. The neighborhood is quiet, near some restaurants and a shopping mall. The lobby is ornate and the rooms are modern. All pictures that I saw online were accurate. The room had just enough to space walk around the comfy queen sized bed, so its small. Like step over your suitcase […] to get into bed, small. There is a wardrobe with some hangers but the wardrobe is about 6 inches deep, so you can't hang up clothes and shut the door. The bed had some hairs in it, mirrors with fingerprints, dirt smudges on the light switches and bathroom door. So it was more dirty than I expected. The shower, which had good water pressure and heat, has no curtain but a 6 inch glass partition and water can splash out easily. The room above us had issues with this and water dripped into our bathroom. It's a no smoking hotel, but our floor and room smelled smoky many of the nights we were there. The room key card also deactivated itself everyday. The wireless internet is only in the lobby. Wired internet is in the room and cord is included. Hair dryer is in the desk drawer. No lock on the pocket door into the bathroom and no deadbolt on the room door. When telling the front desk about the smoke or key issues they were dismissive, saying that just happens sometimes.

Friendly and accommodating staff, as I changed rooms upon arrival. The room I got was comfortable and had everything I needed for a good nights sleep. No restaurant to speak of, but great location for central London business. Will return.

Our room was in the basement. Really small as many hotel rooms in London. The shower emanated sewer smell. After asking to change it they told me there were no other rooms of that price category. After opening the windows the smell went away but not my anger.

(1) the room was too small; (2) desk staff did not seem to have the authority to discuss amending the terms of our stay in include breakfast ... we wanted to know how the inclusion of breakfast would increase our daily cost; (3) the bathroom was clean and comfortable ... the water was hot; (4) one night we were awakened by the strong smell of something […] burning (it smelt a little like electrical wiring) ...when I approached the desk, the night staff advised that staff who were on duty earlier had noticed it, gone outside to see (or smell) where the problem was and concluded that the problem lay outside the building. The staff did offer to have our room checked the following day and offered us another room... I believe an adjustment was made to our bill to provide a complementary breakfast - the issue was that we were not provided with a comforting assurance that there was no problem. Mehr

good location 2min walk from Bayswater, rooms were clean, I'm afriad that's the only good thing I can say.Night 1,Nov 28th, our room on the ground floor, had no heating, a huge draft blowing in the window, someone had tried to fix with selotape, unsuccessfully, was so cold couldn't sleep very well under our thin duvet.Night 2, asked for heating/window […] to be fixed, or new room, were given a sheet/blanket which helped somewhat but was still a draft blowing on us, on a very cold night of freezing temps.Morning 3, asked again for new room, was told it would be sorted by the time we came back later that evening.Night 3, was assured it had been fixed, but it wasn't, then told it was too late to get another room,so we were transferred to a sister hotel in Notting Hill, and had to come back the following morning to leave our bags.Night 4, given a nicer room, with heating/no drafty windows, and a bottle of wine/chocolates to apologise, which was a nice touch.Morning 5, woke and electricity gone, tried to shower in dark bathroom but no hot water,no phone,no internet,no hairdryer,no iron.while going down the stairs instead of the lift, came across a breakfast room, full of breakfast, noone had told us about. Checked out amidst many unhappy people with wet hair! Everytime we were at reception there were lots of other people complaining. I feel sorry for the people who work there, it could be a great hotel. Mehr

Pretty, old-world style inside, more modern rooms. Fine for basic needs - not more than one night, creaky floors, noisy neighborhood, hostels around each corner. Had the tiniest room in the world at first, could barely move around the bathroom (shower stall only) and woken up by dishes/noises as right next to the kitchen. Switched rooms to nicer room […] on higher floor with balcony, however extremely noisy throughout the night, uneven bed and each floor board seemed to make more noise than the last. Staff was great to switch rooms, very helpful. Though will not be staying here again. Mehr

Lovely facade, but felt like a dim, recently deserted night club on entry. Staff uniformly miserable. Public spaces potentially lovely, and my room was really well appointed / decorated (close), but drains, aircon and sink plug didn't work. Everything impossibly cramped, e.g. needed to move table to either sit down, or open wardrobe. WiFi (claimed to […] exist) didn't. It is nearly very good, but let down by crowded tiny room, poor maintenance, and dismal staff = (No cigar). Location convenient, but a bit too far down Bayswater for real "comfort and security" Mehr

This hotel had easy walks to two underground stations and Hyde Park. Lots of restaurants and shops nearby too. The lobby was as lovely as pictured but our room was in the nondescript basement. Upstairs would be nicer but it was clean and fairly quiet in good location.

Authentische Hotels.com-Gästebewertung

It's a nice old building, updated tastefully but showing signs of wear and tear in some areas, particulary the skirting boards and tiling. My room was in the middle of the building, which meant that I had no 3G connection, but you do get free wifi. Location is very convenient for central and west London but it's not the most salubrious neighbourhood; […] seemed safe but it's not posh. Service was fine althoug they had to be reminded about my request for the ironing board! Mehr

The Grand Royale was in a nice location. The room was small but it was fine for one night. I personally did not have any problems with the hotel, but as I was waiting to be checked in, I heard two different guests that has to be relocated due to overbooking.

Never got past the lobby which was dingy and old. Some problem with the rooms--had to be moved to another hotel wasting about 1 1/2 hours of precious time in London.

Great staff. Room was small; however, based on research we expected this, besides who goes to London and stays in their hotel room. This was our first trip to London and England. Would not hesitate to stay at this hotel again.

Fortunately, my stay was for only one night. The room would have been impossible for any longer. I was totally ripped-off. Unfortunate. The location was what I wanted and the rest of the hotel semed acceptable. This hotel was in no way up to a four star rating and the value was terrible. Two star would be more appropriate; avoid this hotel at all c […] osts. Mehr

Despite requesting not to be in the basement - and to have a double bed - my reservation was for a twin in the basement! The staff seemed permanently harrassed by other guests who all had something wring with their booking, so there needs to be some kind of change at the top is my guess. The building is amazing however, with superb Edwardian interiors […] and a nice bit of history about the place, being Lily Langtry's home. The rooms, or certainly the few I've stayed in over the last few years all appear to have been laid out and designed to fit the maximum number into the building so everything feels very cramped. So much so that its not actually possible to fullly open the bathroom door. Even only 2-3 years since the last refit, bathroom fittings are a looking a bit ramshackle, suggesting they were trying to achieve the 'boutique look' with budget materials. Breakfast was good - though with the usual 2nd string hotel appalling and vile tasting plastic scrambled eggs. Does it really take that much effort to cook real eggs that are worth eating? Mehr
