About Gresham Hotel
Sussex Gardens, close to London Paddington, is lined with modest hotels catering to travellers who want an affordable base within easy reach of central London, and the Gresham Hotel is one of the longer-standing options on the street. It has 57 rooms and sits within walking distance of local pubs, restaurants and other eateries, making it a practical choice for a short stay rather than a destination in itself.
Guests get a straightforward hotel stay with a restaurant and bar on site, free WiFi, a lift, a garden, and free on-site parking, which is a genuine advantage in this part of London. Breakfast is included and consistently singled out as one of the better parts of the experience, alongside staff who are noted for being helpful. The hotel also offers laundry service, luggage storage, and space for weddings and other events.
Some rooms show their age and can be poorly maintained, and there is no air conditioning, so it suits guests who prioritise location and value over polish. For sightseeing further afield, Chessington World of Adventures is within reach for a day trip, while Paddington station keeps the rest of London easily accessible.
What guests say
I had a great experience during my stay. The room had everything I needed. The location was perfect, making it easy to explore the town. Every morning, there was a choice of an English breakfast which was a nice touch. Everything exceeded my expectations. The area felt very safe, and I would happily stay here again.

We had a very pleasant stay at this hotel in London. The staff were friendly and professional, especially those working in the restaurant. Breakfast was excellent, with a good variety. The reception staff were helpful and answered all our questions. The location is great, close to many attractions and easy access to the underground.

Great location on Sussex gardens near Paddington station. . Small rooms as expected. Breakfast room included in our booking. Good way to start the day in London. Short walk to Hyde Park.

Our twin bedded room and ensuite was very clean and the bedding and pillows were pristine. Breakfast for an extra £5 each was amazing value for the centre of London and included a cooked meal and the lady in charge in the kitchen was all smiles and very helpful. This is a good value hotel and within about fifteen minutes walking distance from Paddington Station. We would not hesitate to return and thoroughly recommend it.
