Guest Access: Guests have access to the entire property during their stay. The Neighborhood: Unusually for somewhere so central, Paddington has managed to avoid becoming a tourist hub in the way of Marble Arch and Oxford Street, with most visiting the area purely to get on and off the Heathrow Express (which departs conveniently from Paddington Station for any residents heading off on holiday). There are still quiet streets to be found, independent cafes, good schools and even the two-month-long annual Paddington Festival to celebrate the area and bring the residents together. What else? For world-class shopping and European cafe culture, Oxford Street and Marylebone are only a short distance away, while if you’re looking to get away from big-city living, the canal is the perfect place for a weekend walk or even a leisurely tour from one of the many canal boat operators, and there’s always Hyde Park too. If you’ve got deep pockets, a thirst for travel and the desire to be in a lively, central area, you’ll be hard-pressed to find somewhere better. Getting Around: Paddington Underground Station covers four lines, the Bakerloo, Circle, District and Hammersmith & City, making commuting across the city fast and easy. A journey to Kings Cross takes just 11 minutes, while nearby station Lancaster Gate offers the Central Line, with a trip to Bank taking 14 minutes. The area is also well connected with buses, and from 2018 Crossrail will offer a direct train from Paddington to Liverpool Street in just 10 minutes. As for national and international trips, trains depart from Paddington to locations throughout the South of England, and the Heathrow Express will get you to Heathrow Airport in a mere 15 minutes!
