History
St. David's Hotels has a rich history dating back to 1980 when it started under George Neokleous, who arrived in London in 1962 with limited means. George expanded the business with only three staff members, demonstrating dedication to service and hospitality. The current operation is run by George and Foulla's children, who maintain the family's legacy in the hotel industry.

“St. David's Hotels Paddington wins on location, a stone's throw from Paddington Station. I think it's a solid choice for travelers who prioritize practicality and don't mind the quirks of an older building. The cozy rooms and friendly staff are pluses, though light sleepers might want to request a room away from the Underground line.”
