UK Award Winner BedandBreakfast 2009 - 2010. In one of the best locations in Central London but with budget prices – quiet yet within 100 yards of Marble Arch and Oxford Street. A beautiful Regency townhouse, typical of many in Central London that were built for the wealthy 200 years ago The Parkwood is just across the road from Hyde Park at Speaker's Corner. It is also just one minute from Marble Arch, the start of Oxford Street, one mile of continuous shopping! West End theatres are within walking distance and Buckingham Palace, Kensington Palace, the Peter Pan statue and the Princess Diana Memorial Playground, etc., are just a walk across the park. The room prices are remarkably good value for this location (see the "Lowest Price Guarantee" on their Prices page) and the hotel is registered 3-Diamonds by the AA and the English and London Tourist Boards. Access from Heathrow Airport is particularly easy by Heathrow Express (15 minutes to Paddington Station) then a five-minute taxi ride to the Hotel.

We stayed at the Parkwood for three nights and had a triple and a twin room with ensuite bathrooms. Both rooms were very clean, nicely decorated and well furnished. The staff at the Parkwood is just great. Very friendly and hepful. Taking into account the full English breakfast and the hotel's location in Central London you can't beat the value for money at the Parkwood. I've been to quite a few hotels in the Bayswater area but I never found this level of friendliness and cleanliness in a hotel.
4.6 out of 5What a gem!

We enjoyed our stay at Parkwood immensely. We had booked 6 months in advance, but still managed to be on the top floor (we will book earlier the next time!) The room was clean, the service was spot-on. We had a minor issue with the shower which we brought to the attention of the front desk. It was fixed by the time we returned that afternoon! The location is perfect to pick up the bus or catch the tube. Even though we were on the street side, our room was quiet. It is located on the edge of Hyde Park and bustling Oxford Street. The cooked breakfast was a lovely way to start our day. I would not hesitate to recommend The Parkwood to anyone interested in value and quality.
4.6 out of 5The perfect place ?
August 09, 2012
Yes, not far from the perfect place: great situation, the staff is really helpful and nice, food is good. There's one little thing which is a little bit disappointing: the size of the room. To be more specific, we had two rooms, a first which was wide enough but the second one was far too small and one our luggage in, there wasn't so much room to even walk. Except that point, I recommand Parkwood and as soon as I can, I'll go there again !
4.0 out of 5Great service and great price

My friend and I stayed 4 nights at the Parkwood at Marble Arch. The staff was so helpful and the location was amazing. Right down the street from the tube and buses. The location 1/2 a block from Hyde Park was amazing and it was so quiet. The room was clean and breakfast was very good and fixed to your request. The other people staying there were also very friendly. I would stay again in a heartbeat.

2.8 out of 5depends on what room you stay in
September 22, 2011
Spouse & I stayed 5 nights. Due to double ensuites being booked,we agreed to an itinerary to move rooms 3x (staff moved our luggage room to room). 3 rooms yet very different. 1st room was triple ensuite with soaring high ceilings, large TV, huge window, nice. However a STRONG vinegar smell lingered in the bathroom. 2nd room was triple w/ shared bath on 4th floor- a challenging walk up. 4th floor has an overwhelming smell of MOLD due to the tiny shared bath: shower stall, dim lights, no windows or adequate ventilation, hallway carpeting. Our room had an attic space feel compared to the previous. Dingy closet, smaller TV. Insufficient light over in-room sink mirror. Cramped with excess furniture. Shared bathroom was a nightmare- another guest left 3 soaking towels occupying half the floor and suds in the shower. I called the front desk (noticing the phone was covered in thick dust) to ask if where used towels should be left. She said to do what I like & wet towels left by other guests in the bath will be removed by chambermaid the next morning. Shower runs on a loud pump which was a nuisance since our room shared a wall with it. I had an important conference the next day& used the 2nd floor shared bath w/ better light to apply my makeup. We were glad to move to our final room of our stay, a double ensuite which was GREAT. Breakfast room is cheery, staff very nice & accommodating. I wish they offered potatoes or a veggie alternative to sausages and other types of bread/scones for variation from the toast they had. Another suggestion: our flight had us arrive in the morning and the room check in is 1:30pm. We were able to leave our luggage by the desk but had to occupy ourselves for 3 hours till we could check in. We were exhausted coming from the USA,so letting folks go to their room if it's ready would be nice.Overall, a nice stay if you avoid the 4th floor. Add a hallway laundry bin so guests in shared baths can deposit used towels.

My mother and I stayed at the Parkwood Hotel in September 2009 and we both loved everything about it! Value galore, atmosphere, wonderful, friendly service and we will be back as many times as possible!

Great location, walked everywhere. Great value, particularly in the upscale neighbourhood this hotel is located in. Breakfast, cant say enough about. If have an issue with stairs, clarify when booking where you are located, as 4th floor could be an issue for some (no elevator). If I were to make any comment for improvement, it would be the outside deck area - it could be so much more with the planting of the pots and keeping it clear, as it is a nice spot to sit and have a glass of wine in the evening. We would definitely use this hotel on a return trip to London.

Had a fantastic stay at the parkwood Hotel on 8th April 2011, Location of Hotel great and the staff were really helpfull. Parked our car at the local NCP car park 10 minutes walk and received a discount with a card issued from the Hotel for its guests, instead of being charged £42.00 we were only charged £13.00 after discount. we look forward to returning there soon.
