Set on a quiet stretch in the trendy shopping precinct of Paddington, this small, friendly, family-run hotel has simple accommodations at an outstanding price. Garden rooms overlook an Italianate central courtyard and pool; the corner rooms, Numbers 116, 216, and 316, are the largest and quietest. Triple-glazed windows mean rooms overlooking bustling Oxford Street aren't bombarded by traffic noise. Those on the third floor have harbor views. Extras include free in-house movies. The location, close to shops, restaurants, and nightlife, is a 15-minute walk from the city center.
