location is nice, everything else - not so nice...
I selected the hotel based on the location and availibility of a room for three adults (me, my spose, and our 22y daughter), and not a sky price. In a sence I get what I want. But the room was too small. On arrival I found an old towel behind my bed, and overall cleaning was done in the same way.. Summarizing: I didn't expect much, but I did expect something better..

Basic and simple, nothing fancy.
Points to take in to consideration: 1) If you want to use an Iron, you have to do it in the front room of the hotel, if people are sat in there, it doesn't matter. 2) Towels are only changed every 3 days; 3) Breakfast is very basic; Location wise, it's really good as it's a few minutes from Paddington Station.

Lovely stay
The hotel was lovely very close to Marble Arch area which was great for getting a double decker tour bus connection or to use underground. Lots of good restaurants with walking distance. Room were a good size for our luggage and us. Only thing didn't like was had to purchase wi fi and its didn't work half the time

Good to go.
First off people should understand that unless you are shelling out several hundreds of dollars, you're not going to get a really nice hotel room in London. The rooms in general are small and somewhat tired. And in any case, you don't really go to London to hang out in the room. Or at least I don't. I was in town for a 3-day shopping marathon/layover. So Orchard Hotel is totally adequate. The room was clean, and bigger than rooms I've had at the Strand Palace and other hotels, and the amenities were more current. There was a problem with the window so there was a draft but I didn't have a problem with that (I generally keep a window cracked open when I'm not paying the heating bill) although I imagine many people would. The only real drawback for me was that the window also let in a lot of street noise. Staff were helpful and pleasant to deal with, some more so than others. Breakfast is basic (toast, cereal, boiled eggs). The location is very good. It's easily walkable from Paddington (with all the nice drop curbs to ease the arduous task of dragging your rolling suitcase) and at the end of a row of similar hotels. There are restaurants and (basic) shops on London Street. The area has a nice neighborhood-y feel to it, which is remarkable given that it's so close to a major train station. I would definitely consider staying here (or on Sussex Gardens) again.

Great little London Hotel
We've just returned home from a very comfortable 4 nights stay at the Orchard Hotel. It's a small hotel with a homely feel. The reception staff were very helpfull and the Hotel runs very smoothly. It's so near to Paddington station and Oxford Street, we couldn't beleive how easy it was to walk from the station to the Hotel. The Continental breakfast was sufficient and the dining room run very efficiently. The decor is in first class condition and the hotel is very clean. Our room was overlooking the road but the Hotel is situated well in from the road so there wasn't any disterbance from traffic. We will deffinately return to this great little Hotel when we next visit London. Prices very reasonable for a central Hotel.

Orchard Hotel: tiny, clean, renovated & sufficient
TIny but clean rooms. Very odd breakfast (tolerable but definitely not English breakfast), no wifi in rooms but down in lobby, new elevator, new bathroom (albeit quite narrow and tight), pillows were hard, clean sheets, beds made daily, very friendly and hard working staff.

Excellent value for business travellers
This was my first time at the Orchard Hotel but certainly not my first time in this type of London hotel: converted residential turned into a rabbit warren of rooms. I stayed in two different rooms (my fault because of a mix-up in reservations): #205 (surprisingly on the second floor) faced the street and was a bit two small for its two single beds; #507 (not surprisingly, given how eccentric these places are, was in the basement) was ultra quiet, facing onto a tiny square and both the room and bathroom were large. Both rooms were clean, with flat screen TV and a good choice of channels. The bathrooms were clean and modern...but aside from a single piece of soap, bare of things you might normally expect, like shampoo. The rooms were, I believe, representative of the general state of the hotel: refurbished in the first half of 2012 and still looking clean and bright. The front desk staff were helpful and friendly. There is a breakfast available for a price but I did not partake. There is no bar or dining room. No summer air-conditioning. WiFi available for 5 pounds a day. The hotel is an easy walk from Paddington Station (home of the Heathrow Express) and to Edgeware Road, home of a vibrant Lebanese/Arab community. The major food chains are there (Tesco and, closest to the hotel, Waitrose). Overall: excellent "value for money" for business travellers and others that just want a place to sleep as they do London.

Pleasant stay at Orchard Hotel.
Well worth the money. Elevator lift was a pleasant bonus. Hotel presented in modern decor though tight corridors for a big fellow. Good breakfast to start the day. Friendly service.

Clean and basic
Stayed for a conference around the corner. Used the hotel for somewhere to sleep and eat breakfast. Don't expect much from the breakfast, no fresh juice is made available (just squash). Not much food choice either. Wasn't a dreadful stay, but it wouldn't be my first choice again based on the poor breakfast.

Two blocks away from Paddington Station.
We had a very enjoyable stay. Could not ask for a better staff. We stayed at two seperate times while we were in England. Both stays were very nice Within walking distance to a major tube and railway station. Saw on other reviews that the rooms were small. Our first room was a little small but it had everything you could want no complants at all. Our second room was large and both had very nice bathrooms. After all we were in LONDON!! Breakfast was good and if you wanted something more there were plenty of choices just down the street, believe me if you go to London and take in the sites you will find plenty to eat. Like I said it's London. So lf and when we go back to London we will make Orchard House Hotel our first choice.

The staff was very friendly. The room a bit small, but I was expecting that. I have had larger bathrooms on a cruise. But I did not go to London to spend my time in the room. Location was great and nice pubs close by. Short walk to Hyde park..very lovely.

Hardware is ok, while software is to be improved
We've stayed for five days. First, the hotel is easy to find from Paddington Station and just 8 minutes' walk. it's re-decorated, however, i had to say the software is so-so. The waiter who washs the plate and cleans the table is not patient enough to serve and always make whomp. And, the breakfast only serve toast, egg, ham and oatmeal and the teast is bald. i'd say it's the worst hotel during my entired England trip in this year. last but not the least, the free wifi service is poor. Even we sit in the lobby, it's hard to connect sometime. There are so many hotels arrounds Sussex Garden, you'd find better one nearby.

Tiny room, convenient location
The room and shower/toilet were very small for 2 people. The location was very convenient with walking distance to Paddington Station, Lancaster Gate tube station, Hyde / Kensington Parks. The staff at the front desk was OK. The continental breakfast consisted of instant coffee, white bread toast, jam, cheese and something the hotel called ham. Considering we were out and about all day long, it was all acceptable.

We were told two double beds in a quad room but it had one double bed and two singles. The staff at breakfast and at receeption were not friendly at all. Breakfast was basic same menu every day. No kettle in your room or Iron. It was clean and tidy also no toiletires either.

The big negative for this room was they would not change towels everyday. This really bothered me considering how much I paid for the hotel. In addition, the staff in the breakfast room was not very nice. The staff at the front desk was helpful. The room was very small but that seems to be the norm in London. On the positive side, the rooms were very clean initially and it is a very good location. The breakfast was okay except for the orange stuff they served. Would I stay here again? No. If location is important for you, there were about 20-30 hotels all within a few blocks of this hotel.

Convenient location, clean hotel
We booked this hotel as a last minute stay for the Olympics. Hotel was small but rooms were clean and well presented but the bathroom was quite small. It was five minutes on foot to Paddington tube and in a fairly quiet area. We had got the time wrong for the continental breakfast and was ten minutes late. But did eventually get a cup of coffee and a piece of toast. Overall good value for a last minute London hotel.
