I didn't expect too much but the Rhodes was comfortable, quiet and the staff were friendly - which is just what you want.
The rooms are small but not tiny and, for the location, the price is good

This location does not have an elevator/lift. If you have issues going up and down stairs then do not stay here. Great location. Close to Paddington station and Hyde Park. This hotel does not allow visitors or guests so if you are in town visiting family or friends then probably not a good hotel for you to stay at.

Might be good for a single or couple but essentially a bedroom with a bathroom built in. Pedestal sink right inside bathroom door needs to be sidestepped to get to shower or toilet and getting changed is a chore. Bending to spit in sink is barely possible with door closed.

Staff was very nice. Way overpriced for what they provide. Space and room was super tight. Could have gotten a brand hotel for the price. No elevator. We were unlucky enough to get the only room left, which was on the top floor and they cleaned. It was only four stories like more.

Great location right outside of Paddington station.
Vivian was the receptionist that checked us in.
She was courteous, knowledgeable, patient and helpful.
Will definitely stay here again and I highly recommend this place.

The Front Desk guy who checked us in was very nice.
I didn’t like having to walk more than a block on the nice but uneven street to get to our building schlepping our suitcases and certainly didn’t appreciate the basement bedroom which was way too small or probably poorly appointed (no, this is not my first time in Europe, not my first time in London either, so I know spaces are more compact than what we are used to in the US, but this was too small). I didn’t like not having daily housekeeping and when they came, they didn’t change the bed linens (my son had a bloody nose on our first night there and some of it felt on his bed - the linens were not changed throughout our stay). I left a post it on the bed and it was missed. Some of the bed covers had small holes in them and the bed frames had this frayed fabric - not a good look regardless how “budget” this hotel was. The area is lovely

Highly recommend
Wonderful stay. The lovely gentleman who checked us in (I’m sorry I don’t know his name) took care of all of our needs from the moment we walked in. Very clean and safe. Convenient location. We did get a room on the top floor with no lift but our luggage was brought up for us while we were out which was fantastic.

Perfect London overnighter
Incredible location just a quick walk from Paddington. Staff were so friendly and happy and the room was small but perfectly functional. Considering the location, we didn’t hear a peep all night of traffic or nightlife and our room was attached to reception. Lovely walk across Hyde park to The Ritz. Definitely return.

Tired
The hotel is on what I would see as the budget end though Wimbledon fortnight it was still over £150 per night. The location is convenient for Paddington Station and the restaurant and fast food places in the area.
The hotel has a tired appearance. The double bed was against the wall, so the person on the inside needs the stronger bladder. The mattress was very uncomfortable for me, there was no give. The room itself had space and a desk top with plug sockets. The en-suite door didn't shut properly and there was very little control of water temperature from the water tap for the shower, and the pressure was weak (long haired folk washing be warned).
The hotel does not offer a breakfast.
There are steps up to the hotel, with no alternatives for wheel chair access. I was not aware of a lift in the hotel either.

I lovely old building with high ceilings and openable windows. It was hot in London the week I was there and the staff brought me a fan since I prefer to have the window open and leave the air conditioning off.
I was on the 2nd floor street side with lovely views of trees. Traffic was over a fence so never too loud.
The only drawback for those who need an elevator, there is none.
Only one problem with the room was that the light fixture cord over the bathroom faucet was frayed and when I tried to pull it on, the cord broke. I notified staff so I hope they will fix it before the next client.
Otherwise a delightful stay!

14 June 2024
I’ll start with the positive - the bed was surprisingly comfortable with comfortable linen. That is the only positive with this hotel. The floor was dirty and sticky. I couldn’t walk around in my socks or bare feet. The spoons for the coffee were also sticky and looked like they hadn’t been washed in awhile. I was on the 3rd floor and to get there it’s like climbing to the attic. The steps were so narrow my feet didn’t even fit on them. I had to place my hands on the steps to climb up. Getting my luggage up and down was a nightmare. And the walls are paper thin. To check out you have to physically return the keys to the front desk.
