I have tried Hyde park and was not impressed. Not tried Green park, but have used the Metropole quite a few times. I prefer it now to Paddington as this hotel has more facilities. They have a few restaurants, and I found the check in/out process very quick and hassle free. I have also been upgraded there twice as a silver. I am gold now and can say the exec longe is pretty good. I also like the area. As mentioned there are a lot of restaurants to suit all tastes.
