Hotels in Paddington, London

Paddington is the W2 district west of Marylebone, built around Paddington Station — one of London’s main terminals and home of the Heathrow Express. The station links directly to Heathrow Airport in 15 minutes, which makes the area a common choice for short stays, business trips and early flights.

The neighbourhood stretches north and east from the station through Lancaster Gate to Hyde Park, and west into Bayswater. Hyde Park is a five-minute walk across Sussex Gardens — Kensington Gardens, the Serpentine and Marble Arch follow along the park’s southern edge. Edgware Road and the Lebanese restaurants of Paddington Basin add variety close to the station.

Rooms in Paddington cover a wider price range than in Mayfair or Knightsbridge — Victorian townhouse conversions on Norfolk Square and Sussex Gardens offer mid-range and budget options, while larger chain hotels on Lancaster Terrace and Bayswater Road sit at the four-star level. Below are 67 hotels in the Paddington and Lancaster Gate area.
