Corus Hyde Park Hotel

Fantastic location across from Hyde Park - underground only 200 m from hotel, shops, cafes, restaurants on the same street as hotel Great cooked breakfast Lovely helpful staff especially Dante at the desk and the young man behind the Concierge. Booked far in advance so I only paid £110 for two people with breakfast in mid August - great deal

Lovely staff - shoutout to Stella and the team, who had smiles and were happy to help! Excellent hot/cold breakfast with great buffet choices and fresh fruit/pastries. Good to have luggage stored outside of check-in/out times. Room was fine for a four-night stay - clean and comfy bed (pillows bit hard for me though) with a shower that was really powerful. Decent size towels as well. All the lifts worked (how often are hotel lifts out of order?!) and plenty of them so didn't have to wait long when called. The lobby area is lovely and spacious and the conservatory where we had breakfast has a 'faded grandeur' about it; large windows overlook the bustling road and Kensington Gardens outside. A short stroll from Lancaster Gate tube on Central Line is a big bonus - you're in central London within a few minutes. Perfect for leafy strolls in the park opposite and within half-hour's walking distance from Notting Hill, Kensington etc.

Great value for money, all the staff we interacted with were friendly and attentive (inc front desk, kitchen/catering and cleaners), walking distance to Paddington area (10 min), we walked from Marylebone Station in just over 20 mins, Plenty of places to eat within 10/15 mins radius. Buffet breakfast kept us going most of the day, was able to get more milk for tea/coffee quite late on at night, fresh towels dropped of each morning.

Had a problem with very noisy, inconsiderate neighbours well into the early hours on the first night of our stay. This was handled very tactfully, professionally, discreetly and efficiently by the hotel staff and there were no issues for the remaining nights of our stay. Lead in room type was compact but comfortable and adequate for our stay and room serviced every day. Breakfast had good choice of continental and full cooked items with table service tea and coffee. Location excellent overlooking Hyde Park and very close to tube station and bus stops.

We booked two rooms, of which one was upgraded for a small fee to a business room and the other we kept as standard twin room. The upgraded room was small, but comfy and nice as it was done up. The standard twin-room was tired looking though and in need of an update. Upgrade your room for a small fee is worth it bearing in mind the price you pay for this hotel, its is excellent value for money. The staff were are very friendly. The rooms were clean and quiet.
