The room was a good size and it was clean. the hotel is in a good location. good price.
Staff tried to enter our room without knocking. there was no one at reception when we wanted to check out. our room was situated on the basement floor near the staff facilities room and breakfast room so it was a little noisy in the morning. hair dryer was broken.

The piccolino is ideally positioned for use of paddington station with an excellent selection of eateries on your door step. rooms are large and clean and decorated to a good standard. staff are always friendly and helpfull and there is room to leave your luggage on day of departure if you want to do a little last minute shopping or site seeing.
Rooms have bare floor boards so if you're not on the top floor the noise from rooms above can be annoying, also no double glazing so if staying at the front of the property road noise can also be annoying.

Front desk staff was very friendly / helpful.
Towels were mildewy and reeked of cigarette smoke. bath mat was so worn it was a rag, with a big hole in the center and the rest in threads breakfast staff were smoking as they were putting together the items for breakfast. the rolls were stale, other items unappealing. a great location and a place with a lot of potential, but currently not worth the price of the room.

Staff is excellent. they tried to fulfill whatever we ask . breakfast were good.
The room given was meant for 2 person instead of 3 but somehow rather they managed to swap us to a bigger room on the following day. it's nice if the breakfast menu change everday.

The room was really nice and clean.
The hotel itself was undergoing a renovation and it was in rather uncomfortable and ugly. the breakfast was really poor and the staff could not provide information on airport services.

Fantastic location in relation to paddington mainline station - just a 5 minute walk and in a quiet area. staff very friendly and polite. rooms very clean and well equipped. breakfast was more than ample in a self-service style.
Not really - i suppose some people might be slightly irritated by the poor tv reception.
