Bayswater is in the north western sector of the centre of London, on the northern border of Kensington Gardens / Hyde Park. Although central, Bayswater itself has no direct public transport to any on London's four major airports, Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted and Luton.

For most leisure travellers, Heathrow is the only airport where the cost of taxi transfers are worth considering within most people's budgets. The exception to the rule perhaps being if you have a group of six or more or if you have lots and lots of luggage.

Airport by Airport Transfer Options To Bayswater
Heathrow Gatwick Stansted Luton
Heathrow Airport
By far the most comfortable transfer from Heathrow to Bayswater is to catch the Heathrow Express from Heathrow to Paddington, then get a short taxi ride of about 5 minutes to your hotel. The Heathrow Express is a non stop dedicated airport train that takes just 15 minutes between Paddington and Heathrow. The downside is cost.
There is a cheaper, but slower stopping train called the Heathrow Connect train that makes the same journey.

Bayswater is also the next stop on the Underground from Paddington if your hotel is near Bayswater Underground.
Paddington Station itself is only about a mile from most of the Bayswater hotels, too far for most people to walk with luggage.

At a fraction of the cost of the Heathrow Express, the London Underground will deliver you from Heathrow to Bayswater in about an hour. This is the cheapest transfer available. You can do the journey by making a single connection at Earls Court. However the Piccadilly Line from/to Heathrow is deep underground here and the District Line to Bayswater on the surface, there are a lot of escalators,stairs and corridors in between.

Especially with luggage you may want to make an extra stop. Get off the Piccadilly Line from Heathrow at Hammersmith, then get a District Line to Earls Court, then another District Line train to Bayswater. This way all the trains depart from the same platform.
The fare is based on a journey, so the cost for taking 3 trains is the same as taking 1.
Dot 2 Dot Hotel Shared Hotel Shuttle Bus To/From Heathrow

An established shared minibus service transporting travellers between Heathrow Airport and their Central London Hotel.

You pay a fare per person and you will share the minibus with other travellers. The driver will drop you off at your Central London hotel in the order which makes most sense given the location of the destination hotels.
Coming back out to the airport, you agree a time slot within which the minibus will pick you up from your hotel lobby.

This is a shared service, not a private taxi transfer. All terminals at Heathrow are serviced. You may have to wait at the airport 15-20 minutes for the shuttle. Buses are luxurious with onboard WiFi etc.

Dot 2 Dot have desks in the terminals and plenty of their own staff available at the airports to make sure the transfer goes smoothly.

Gatwick Airport
Nearly all public transport options leave from London Victoria. There are direct Underground trains from Bayswater to Victoria taking around 15 minutes. A taxi would take about the same time
The Gatwick Express is the dedicated airport train running non stop from Gatwick to London Victoria. There are as frequent local stopping trains to/from Gatwick that do the same journey much cheaper.
National Express also operate a cheaper still Gatwick bus service from Victoria but journey times can suffer from traffic congestion. Potentially the cheapest option are easyBus. easyBus run a bus shuttle service from Fulham Broadway Underground Station which has direct train to Bayswater on the District Line.
Stansted Airport
There are a wide range of bus services operating from Stansted to various parts of Central London. Physically the closest to Bayswater is the National Express Stansted to Victoria bus that stops at Baker Street and Marble Arch, each about a mile from Bayswater. This service runs a 24 x 7 service. The Circle Line Underground connects Bakers Street with Bayswater and at Marble Arch the Central Line goes to Queensway.
When the Underground closes there are night buses that operate the same route.

Worth considering also to avoid the worst of London's traffic congestion is to get the Terravision bus to Liverpool Street or the National Express Stansted bus to Stratford, then get the Central Line Underground from either to Queensway.

If speed is your main requirement simply take the Stansted Express train to Liverpool Street then get the Central Line Underground from here to Queensway. This option is significantly more expensive than the bus options, but of course fast and no delays through traffic congestion.
Luton Airport
From Luton there is a stark choice between the cheap bus and the fast train. The bus option is jointly operated by Green Line / easyBus and Terravision. It runs a 24 x7 service too.

The easybus Luton Airport service stops at Baker Street and Marble Arch on its way from Luton to Victoria, each about a mile from Bayswater. The Circle Line Underground connects Bakers Street with Bayswater and at Marble Arch the Central Line goes to Queensway.
When the Underground closes there are night buses that operate the same route.

The faster, more expensive Luton Airport rail service runs into St Pancras from where the Circle Line connects you direct to Bayswater. At Luton the train doesn't go to the airport, a shuttle trolley runs between the airport terminal and Luton Parkway Station, a journey of only 5 minutes.
