    Our room was a triple room and it had more than enough space. Looked like it was renovated which we appreciated. Room and the bathroom were clean and beds were comfy. Breakfast had a good variety of options and food tasted good. Staff was friendly and really helpful with the questions we had. Priyanka helped us a lot with our room at the time of check in. Hotel is well located near tube stations and bus stops.

    We had booked this hotel mainly because of the distance to the West End theaters. It´s in an exceptional location as it´s close to everything (around 20 min walk) but not in the dead center where you have a lot of noise. We had read many reviews saying it was old and dirty that was not our case at all. We had a standard twin plus room (I guess the ones with the plus are the renovated rooms). We had a very clean room; it had a basic shower with toilet and basin. Two beds with clean sheets and duvets. The windows in our room could be opened and a small area for storage. It´s true that there was only a small bench to put things on and only one chair, the room could use two chairs and a larger table but it was adequate for what we paid. In our room there was no safe and the only complaint we have is that right next to our room (7048) was a corridor where the cleaning staff had the towel storage and every morning between 8:20 and 8:30am they would start to talk and you could hear everything as they started their day. The elevators only work if you place the room key over it which made us feel very safe and there was always staff at reception. It´s maybe not the best hotel in London but for the location, cleanliness and staff I would 100% recommend it. I can´t speak to the food as we didn´t consume any.

    Not a bad option close to St. Pancras station. Room was 3 single beds which were comfortable but the room was dusty and cramped. Otherwise clean. Hotel seems to be in a state of renovation in other sections. Lobby is big and nice and there was a locked room to store luggage. They give you a tag so it's not just thrown Into a random room. Staff were friendly and helpful. Close to tube stations this making it easy to get around to tourist sites.

    Three star hotel is what they say and three star hotel is what you get. We had en room on the top floor of the building with a view.. of more of the hotel. The rooms were proper clean but small and I had to duck for several occasions. The breakfast was enjoyable with every ingredient of English breakfast. Bit crowded during peak hours but the signs warned you of that. Would recommend it for the reasonable price.

    Pros: nice location close to our Kings Cross Station. Friendly staff. Clean rooms. Horrible stay at their hotel. Arrived early on the morning and used their luggage service which was very helpful. Since we had a full day we only got back in at about midnight. Checked in and went up to the room. We found our room after leaving the nice corridors and going down miles of corridor with rugs that have been taped over to hide the damages. We were dead tired and just wanted some sleep. When we entered the room it smelled of old frying oil. Beneath the room there's a restaurant and since the cleaning service took place around noon and they left the window open it had all the time in the world to make the room smell like a fast food place. Plus insects in the room. We closed the window but due to minimal isolation we could hear the buzzing night life below, cars going by, sirens, you name it. No air conditioning. No power sockets near the bed. Beds were standing in the middle of the room and had to be pushed to the wall to not have the pillows fall over all the place. No fridge.
