I originally wanted to come to Paddington simply because it is so lively and awake. Once I arrived I noticed that there are many places for coffee or tea. Because of this discovery I made a point to find a hotel that was near everything I wanted to do. The Brunel Hotel Bayswater London was rated one of the best hotels around.

The price of a room was very reasonable and well within my price range. I stay at this hotel for 3 days at the rate of $61 a night. When I checked in the desk clerk even made a point to tell me that I was right around the corner from the Paddington mainline station. This Victorian home turned into a hotel was a beautiful change of scenery from Southern California. My bedroom was perfect for one person and even included my own satellite television and hair dryer. I was also able to make telephone calls to my friends from my room without issue.

When you are on a budget and traveling, Paddington is a great place to nestle into. The Brunel Hotel had just about everything that I needed in a three start hotel. Even on a budget I was able to eat breakfast for free every morning at the hotel and enjoy a hot cup of fresh coffee or tea! This will definitely be my first choice the next time I find a window to come back to the city of London!
