Reviews of Railton House (Paddington)

M. A. H.

Time for an update review! So, Railton House has been recently refurbished and now it's looking better than ever before. Rooms: bright and airy, with cute wall shelving units, proper long and thick curtains, modern wardrobes with doors that don't slam, bedside units and there's even a mini-fridge in every room for all your cold drinks! Facilities: apart from refreshed and repainted toilets and kitchens, most shower rooms were built from scratch and now sport brand new, modern and roomy shower cabins. Common areas: premise has been thoroughly repainted inside, with all carpets replaced. Internet: super fast, secured Internet access (>100Mbit Wi-Fi/1Gbit LAN - Ethernet sockets for each bed for those more demanding) so you can stream, download and upload without limits. What hasn't changed is price-to-value, central location and the professionalism of the staff and management. I've been here for quite some time now and I'm planning to stay for a while longer.

Best stay ever! Stay there whilst i was studing and would recommend 100% . The hostel is clean and people are friendly. The reception staff are great but a special Thanks to Laura who is extremely helpful and made my stay even more enjoyable.She helped me with my CV and gave me great tips.Anyone in a hostel knows that she is the person to talk to in any situation.

First my bed was very comfortable, nice room (with safe, desk, drawers, wardrobe, sink, etc) roommates and housemates: the kitchen I was using was large, sunny, nice and clean, with all utilities clean and perfectly working, a lot of clean toilets and showers. I really enjoyed my staying in Railton House also because everything is well organized and managed by staff and management there, so that I could take advantage of every second for my business while staying in London. Special thanks to all staff for that!

Thank you so much Railton for this fantastic stay. The hostel in general is clean , staff is amazing as the location. Great customer services but a special Thanks to Laura who is extremely smart , helpful and friendly. Every hostel should have a staff like her !

Railton House has amazing staff; they've been friendly and very helpful all throughout my stay there. The accomodation flexibility and pricing is great - even on the long stay, I was billed by the day (so I did not have to pay for any day I wasn't there), and I've also had a significant student discount. The location is also great - a quiet area 5 mins away from Paddington station. The house is a bit old however, but given the price, it is well worth it.

I enjoyed my stay at Railton. Location of the property is great. There are plenty of restaurants and takeaways around, that remain open till late and Paddington station is 5 mins walk away. The management and the staff are also very cooperative and friendly. I plan on staying here again next year during my summer vacations!

I stayed for 1 month in Railton House and my experience was brilliant. The recepcionists, Laura, Alcina and Isabel are very kind, polite and helpful, and the facilities are great. They offer single, double and triple rooms which they clean every morning and are very comfortable. It’s just 5 min from Lancaster gate and 10 min from Paddington station, which makes it really easy to move around the city. Definitely recommend to anyone

I lived in Railton for few months. The hostel is located in a great and relaxed area. Hyde park and Kensington Gardens are just by 5 min walk. Oxford cicrus just at 10 min. The hostel is great , there are a garden , kitchen in each floor, study room , Tv room. The saff is amazing, they always a nice word. They speak different languages. Resident are quite and friendly. I recommend the hotel for students there Universities and colleges are situated arround the Hostel (Westminister, Imperial, UCL..) and professionals : Great connection to the city and Tourists : It is a safe area in central London. Thank you Laura for your adices I got a job :), Isabel thank you for your kindness and Alcina thank you for feeding me . I am missing your cake. N.

Absolutely loved staying at Railton. The manager Laura light up the room. Her positive energy is infectious. The building is extremely clean . All the Covid regulations that they put in place make you feel safe. All the staff from reception to cleaners are extremely wonderful. Isa is great and Jose are great too. They are ALL very helpful. Thank you guys !!! Keep the good work.

A kitchen on each floor for the residents, rooms with only 3 single beds (no 10-15 bunk beds in one room like at other hostels), friendly staff, excellent location near Paddington (access to Circle, Hammersmith, Bakerloo tube lines only 5 minutes away by walking), Hyde Park (only 5 minutes away by walking). Each resident has their own small security container. Cupboard and drawers were not 100% clean and the shower took some time to produce hot water in the night (after 11 pm).

Booking this property on an accomm site. Couldn't travel due to sickness and even though I'd booked a non-refundable room; the property kindly resold it and refunded me. I would be encouraged to stay in future with that kind of service.

C. M.

As a student studying in London, the price, environment, convenience (e.g. taking subway, bus, train all are within 30 mins) is optimal. Good place, I will remember this~

E.

Unbelievable high quality hotel and staff. I lack words to describe how beautiful is this place, along with the genuine staff. Great place.

C. M.

Once again, it has been a great stay at the Railton House, just like the last time, which was about 2 years ago. The location is perfect, the staff is awesome and the prices are great! Thank you Railton House :)

M. S.

Good place close to the center, staff is very nice, we enjoyed our staying! I forgot there a shirt and they let me know and arrange to give me back it! Good!

L. K.

I'm sure you will feel at home while you are staying at one of the nice hostels that can be preferred due to being close to the city center by underground and being 2 minutes from the hypark. thanks for everything Best Regards. Nayden M. Naydenov

I stayed at Railton for almost 8 months. Excellent location, very clean bathrooms, toilets and kitchens, a couple of minutes walking distance to shops, Hyde park and underground. Volunteers and the management team are very hospitable and nice. Thank you Alcina, Laura and Isabel for helping me move to the Railton that I am really happy about it, thank you all for everything.

Great service

Excellent service from the staff, they were very cordial and attentive to every question I had about the city. Railton is located just a few meters from Hyde Park as well as the tube station. Also recommend it for its cleanliness, since there are people constantly doing this task. Thank you 😊. If I return I would not hesitate to go to this place again.

C. G.

I'm very happy with the experience. From the very first minute, they helped me with the language and everything I needed. I 100% recommend it as a cheap and well-located travel option. It's important to me when traveling, everything is clean. Overall, a good experience.

M. C.

The room is 4 meters high, the window is 3 meters, without the Greek Orthodox Episcopate, with a small chapel, where from time to time the priests hold services and allow 3-4 people to participate, inviting them to say Our Father, in their mother tongue. The beds in the room are narrow but the cupboards are tall and roomy. On the ground floor of the building, there is a bathroom with a bathtub long enough for tall people like me, who they like to relax in warm water.

E. T.

Can only be recommended. Very good atmosphere and very nice workers. The rooms are comfortable and there are good local transport options nearby. Big praise to dear Isabel, who made my time there so enjoyable. Thanks again!

J. E. B. A.

An incredible experience! The service was very pleasant, I felt right at home. I hope to return soon. Thank you so much for everything.

L. D. M.

Excellent accommodation, I lived there for a few months, nothing to complain about... Hostel staff are great, especially the Manager Ms Alcina and Isabela!

N. S.

Very well located and close to the metro, and since the hostel isn't very big, there's not much noise. Isabelle, the receptionist, was very nice. Highly recommended.

I stayed for more than 2 months at Railton. It was a great experience for me. I enjoyed a lot while staying there. Firstly, Location is amazing. For instance, nearly all the museums are just walking distance. Central line and other underground lines are just 5-10 mins far away. there are more than 5 24 hours bus passed 5 mins away. Secondly, It was very clean. All common areas had been sanitised 2-3 times per day. They were so careful to follow government guidelines. They provided some quarantine packages that enough for 15 days quarantine if u come from restricted countries. Thirdly, All stuff was friendly although covid restrictions. You can talk to them, share them and befriend them. I know this is not the biggest pro's if you stay just 1-2 nights. But If you are new in the city like me that was great, especially in lockdown times, their friendship might be substantial. Lastly, Prices are very very very affordable. If you are below than 29 it is very very very very affordable. I am just missing my London days, such as portobello market trips, hyde park walking, the little Venice sightseeing. All of them were 5 mins close to me when I was there.

After living there for 5 months, it's my first option when I'm travelling to London, specially for long term. The place is constantly being cleaned, the staff is friendly, and the residents are professionals that keep the place quiet. It's located in a well communicated and safe area, with nearby stores, underground, train and airport buses.

A very worm welcoming. Good atmosphere, competent staff, assured safety and just wonderful people, who will make sure your stay will be a top experience. Rooms are being regularly and precisely cleaned. The place is quiet and the residents are respectful. Great location in the heart of LonDon. Don't hesitate and stay there anytime you stop by!

The stay was very good. I was lucky to have an amazing roommate which made my stay even better. This property is very well situated. Very close to the Hyde park and just half an hour walk to the Regent´s park. The rooms were clean, the showers and toilet most of the times too. I did not have any problems. Thank you very much
