IMHO there is not much point in getting the Heathrow Express because it
costs more and you still have to negotiate the tube system.

The HE will certainly cost more than the tube, but it depends on how much
luggage you have and with Terminal 4 tube station closed, what terminal you
arrive at.

I'd much rather take the HE to Paddington and then a cab to the hotel if I had
anything more than a carry-on. Its not that far to the other side of
Hyde/Kensington Park from the train station. Beats trying to drag a bunch of
bags on the Tube. Faster as well.
