Overall it was a good stay for 2 nights. Carpets are stained, which that's why I didn't leave a higher rating on cleanliness. Staff don't always greet you when you arrive, it seems a more impersonal hotel.

Nice, easy, convenient stay after an event at Wembley. Check in was a bit odd, the staff are on a table. So there’s no clear queue which caused a little friction between people. But they let us check in at 2pm no issues. We had an executive family room (2a & 1c) which was clean. However no bed for the child. Had to call housekeeping to have the sofa made up which took about half an hour. Then we realised the following morning that there was no extra towels etc for 3rd person so do double check. Lovely nespresso machine which sadly didn’t work. Only one small bottle of water in fridge which seems strange for 3 people. Hotel covered in scaffolding but doesn’t affect stay at all. Area itself is GORGEOUS. So close to Paddington but idyllic, the canals boats etc are beautiful.

First time at Novotel, was impressed. Lovely room and facilities, although I didn’t get to see swimming pool. Lovely quiet location, with shops, cafe and diners. Closely located to station although I did get lost to find it. Staff were helpful, the only thing that seemed awkward was that Reception were seated very low on table. Definitely recommend for solo travellers and their dogs. Thank you.

Pet friendly is not the word I would use pet surcharge £50 for a 4 kg dog to stay in the same room. No bowl provided nothing for the £50 not what I would Call pet friendly do not profit from pets

There was ongoing construction during the day 9-5 and scaffolding in front of our windows. We had to keep drapes closed. We were not in the room during the construction hours so did not impact us. Hotel was clean and conveniently located and reasonably priced. We had a good stay.

The rooms are dated, specifically the carpet was stained. The room we reserved was not ready upon arrival, after 5 pm, as they booked the wrong room, however, the staff worked hard to mend their mistake.

We had a wonderful stay! The staff was so friendly and welcoming. They went out of their way, whenever possible, to meet our needs and make us feel comfortable. The hotel was clean and we had everything we needed. The room was comfortable, clean and quite spacious. (Though the sofabeds are probably best on a short-term basis.) We were pleased with the location - very central and in the immediate vicinity of Little Venice, which is an area that we are drawn to. We also love the immediate neighborhood with the inviting garden walkway to the hotel entrance. The only reason for a slightly lower score on property condition was the current renovations. The renovations were a slight minus, though we found that this did not have a great effect on our stay. (There is notice of the renovations on the hotel website. And the situation is temporary.) All in all, a great hotel option! - and we will be returning.

Be aware: there is building work underway on the outside of the hotel which means scaffolding and workmen outside windows, and drilling noise from 9am until 5pm. We did not find this out until we checked in! The official Accor website only shows this if you open the "Hotel Information" box, and states this will be the case from January until November 2024. It is NOT MENTIONED in the Expedia details, only in the customer reviews (which we unfortunately did not read before making a last-minute booking!). Having said that, the staff were extremely friendly, patient and helpful, and the noise did not affect us as we were out all day. The location in Paddington Central is ideal for accessing the tube, with all central tourist attractions within a few stops. There is an excellent selection of bars, coffee shops and restaurants around the picturesque canal setting. The bathroom faciltiies in our room were a bit dated and could do with modernising. However when we reported in the morning that our shower door was leaking it had been dealt with by the time we returned for dinner.
