"The rooms are shockingly quiet considering the central location--there are double windows to keep the street noise out and they must have put in sound insulation because the noise from the pub was minimal."

“This Paddington pub offers surprisingly stylish rooms, post-renovation. Though the location is central and lively, soundproofing ensures quiet nights, which is a big plus in London. Overall, this spot makes a solid base for exploring, despite some service hiccups.”
