I very much enjoyed my stay at the Omega. It's location is extremely convenient, a five minute walk to Paddington station and a ten minute walk in the opposite direction to Kensington Gardens. Around the corner are handy shops, pubs and restaurants. The staff were pleasant enough and helpful, the breakfast was filling (fruit, yoghurt, boiled egg, cereals, various breads/toast cheese/meats tea/coffee). One thing to watch out if you're not able bodied or have trouble with stairs there is no lift/elevator, I'm not sure there are enough staff to help with luggage either. I was upgraded to a double room, which I was grateful for, but it was still smaller than expected. I'm 5'10 and the bed and shower felt small, if you're of bigger stature you may struggle. My room was clean and more than serviceable, towels and sheets were changed daily, the wifi was strong and worked well. My room faced the street and was quite noisy so I was glad to have earplugs with me. I always bring earplugs to any new place I stay, because you just never know. Overall I would highly recommend this no-frills hotel for a night or two. You're not going to get pampered, but you'll get a clean room, hot shower, comfortable bed and hearty breakfast. I'll definitely be coming back. I used to stay at the trendy Pilgrim around the corner, but I got pretty much the same experience at the Omega for half the price. 1) Bring earplugs 2) Be prepared to carry luggage upstairs. Hope this review helps!
