Scene
Sleek, contemporary design hotel with hints of history
The Caesar mixes contemporary, minimalist design with unique historical elements. The lobby is a mix of off-white walls and floors with black furnishings, including slim and modern leather couches and unusual chairs with cylindrical bases and thin, hard backrests. The walls are decorated with reproductions of ancient Roman mosaics, adding a touch of color and history to the space. The Caesar draws a mix of professional and leisure travelers, due in part to its location near Paddington Station and Hyde Park.
Location
Near Hyde Park and a 10-minute walk from Paddington Station

Rooms
Compact, minimalist rooms with hardwood floors and exposed brick walls
The rooms at The Caesar are modern, like the common spaces. White walls and bedspreads keep the spaces bright, while dark wood laminate floors and furnishings give the rooms a sleek vibe. Single rooms are compact, with the beds tucked against the walls and little floor space between them and the narrow desks. All rooms come with flat-screen TVs and air-conditioning; Wi-Fi is free throughout the property. Superior Rooms offer slightly more space and better natural light, but are still snug. To get some breathing room, guests will need to upgrade to one of the Executive Rooms, which despite possible slanted ceilings, offer reading chairs and larger TVs. Like many of the rooms, bathrooms are small, but are nicely designed in a green and black tile. For larger groups or those with longer stays, the hotel has Family Rooms, which include kitchenettes.
Features
XO restaurant, 24-hour room service, and a fitness center
The XO restaurant is popular and serves a buffet breakfast with a selection influenced by the hotel's Spanish owners, though it costs extra. In the evening, the a la carte menu includes a mix of European favorites. The small attached bar serves light lunches as well as cocktails throughout the evening, and the hotel provides 24-hour room service. The Caesar has a small fitness center with clean and functional -- but not new -- cardio machines and a few free weights. The gym also has a small sauna and massage shower. For business guests, there's a meeting room with audiovisual equipment.
