Park Avenue Inn Craven Hotel

7/10 very good kemlo haka

The room was very small for 2 people, but we did get what we paid for. I travelled to London with a friend as we were going to Wembley the next day and given we just needed somewhere to stay for one night it more than did the job. On the negative side of things: The bathroom handle was very loose and couldn't be locked, the shower fluctuated between freezing and boiling hot, the breakfast consisted of a sandwich is a tupperware container along with a yoghurt, an apple and a boiled egg. The positives include: great location, right next to Hyde Park and a 5 minute walk from the closest tube station, TV in room, easy to get to Wembley and back to Euston, comfy beds and cheap price. Would have no problem staying again but would maybe keep an eye out for other, more roomy places.

The best thing about this hotel is the location and upon arrival the staff were helpful and friendly. Apart from that I don’t really have anything else positive to say. I was staying in London for a training course so wasn’t expecting 5* luxury but was expecting more than this hotel offered. The room was in the basement which as you walked down the stairs you can smell the damp. The room itself was a good size and the bed was comfy enough but the walls were damp with mould on them. There were 2 remotes for the TV which neither worked. The shower and toilet were just about big enough for me to squeeze in. The room was next to a metal staircase which was In use from around 5 in the morning. You could hear the other guests and footsteps above the room from the floor above. The kettle was missing and I could go on. We were due to stay 6 nights but left after 2. From my experience I would avoid this hotel.
