This tall tower of a hotel is located just off Edgware road in London. It's a fabulous location because it is very near Paddington and is also a walking distance to Oxford Street and Hyde Park. The rooms are smallish but this is standard for a central London hotel. The food is excellent with several Arabic dishes on the menu. If you choose not to eat in, there are plenty of small eateries nearby. The rooms are very clean, nicely decorated and comfortable. The bedding especially is fabulous - you don't feel like getting out of bed in the morning. The service is good and the health club and pool, though small, are adequate. Overall, it a very good hotel and an excellent base for a trip to London.

Note that this is not the Marriott you see when you come out of the Marble Arch station. For reasons of their own, that one's called the Marriott Park Lane.
