Hotel near Paddington Station

Does anyone have a hotel to recommend near Paddington Station?

We'll be flying up from Marseille and taking the train from Heathrow to Paddington. Then the next morning we'll take a train from Paddington out to Cornwall. We have a favorite London hotel around Gloucester Road, but I think it would probably make more sense (and be more economical) to stay within a few blocks of Paddington for this one night.

I'd appreciate any recommendations!
 
About a decade ago we stayed at the Hilton, which is a couple of minutes walk away. It was fancier than their normal hotels and I was told afterwards it's one of their prestige hotels. The price was very good, via the early days of Expedia who steered us there when we phoned them. Great spread for breakfast.
 
Thanks for this suggestion, Ian.

We ended up deciding to splurge a little and stay at our favorite Ashburn Hotel after all. It's less than three miles from Paddington, though slow by taxi. We'll have less luggage this time, so we can travel by tube.

This is a small boutique hotel, 38 rooms, in a great area... South Kensington, just two blocks from Gloucester Road station with lots of restaurant options. The hotel offers a glass of prosecco every evening and includes a very good continental breakfast.
 
I am too late to this, but Vancouver Studios is near Paddington. It is a favorite with many ST people. It was Maureen who first stayed there and recommended it. We stayed there a few years ago. @PokeyMindy stayed there last summer I think.
 
Love Vancouver Studios but unless you stay on 1 of their 2 apartments it's asqueeze. A splurge with a free glass of Prosecco sounds lovely. This is what we have in Melbourne
A beautiful privately owned aparthotel with free "wine down."
