Maida Vale, London hotel rooms at the onefinestay

"Really nice new hotel. Literally brand new it’s only been open 3 weeks on my visit. Lots to do here - I used the pool which was really nice. Although the changing rooms are bizarre. Seriously someone needs to report the architect to RIBA! I wasn’t told that the changing rooms were communal. I had my arse out getting changed and realised there’s a glass panel in the door so anyone could look in. Odd design. Then on leaving the pool to get changed I realised that the changing rooms are communal. There are no dry cubicals to change in, only 2 shower cubicals which aren’t ideal to change in as the floor is wet. Large area used for 4 hair dryers and large mirrors. Honestly the most bizarre use of space I’ve ever seen in a place like this. It won’t be long until they realise they need to rip it all out and re do it. I’m not that fussed personally but it would put women off having to change with men. Might wanna change in your room. I’ve been back since and booked again next week so will stay here as first choice while the price is affordable. The ground floor is a nice place to work in the morning too, although the coffee is pretty poor. Doesn’t live up to the pastries on the counter "

"Lovely clean and tidy place would definitely use again "

"Horrible check in experience, no elevator, bad neighbourhood, room did not match the photos in any capacity"

"Staff was very professional. Check-in was easy. The flat was very nice. A/C worked wonderfully as it should, heated floors were pretty cool. The shower was great. Not a lot of shelf space/lighting in the bathroom. The kitchen had a basic outfitting of utensils and dishes and cups. The water and coffee were complementary. There was no dish towel or paper towels. The only complaint we had was the washer/dryer combo was not that efficient. It might have been operator error but I turned on the dryer 3 times for about 6hrs and clothes were still damp. So we asked the staff if they provided a laundry service. They said they could take care of it in which they did. However, what they didn’t tell us was that it was gonna be €79. Location was about three minutes from the tube station, which was also convenient. There were a variety of stores with a block to include restaurants and a market. Would recommend staying and would stay again. "

"Great first hotel experience travelling from NZ to London. Affordable room price and nearby stores for supplies."
