Everything and staff was great. Only issue was that it was a hard mattress and you couldn’t open the window to regulate the temperature when needed. The air conditioning was hit and miss.
Breakfast was impeccable and my luggage was stored with care.

Location is perfect for Central London. The hotel is a few minutes from King's Cross and St Pancras overground and underground stations.
We were visiting London for an evening at the Theatre. 100% recommend.
Nothing to fault. Will return.

Excellent check in. Room was lovely, nice bar . Great convenient location straight across road from st Pancras international station. My only downside was breakfast on a Sunday is not until 7am would be nice if it was 6 or 6:30 especially with Eurostar check in being from 7:15 for the 1st train on a Sunday

Great rooms. Can be a little noisy. Pool is a public fitness center. Good pool but have to carry all the amenities to the fitness center such as towel, soap etc. Good addition to enable fitness facility.

Everything was really good at this hotel and great value. We had a 5th floor room so in the eves but it was surprisingly spacious and really quiet.
Breakfast was à la carte and very good
A small pet hate: why so stingy on milks for the in room tea and coffee??

Hotel was well located and superb inside. Only downside was breakfast, which was slow and rather poor quality. Cooked breakfast was fine (average) whilst the porridge had presumably sat on the hot plate for a while (had a crust on it). We almost cancelled breakfast due to having to catch Eurostar but the breakfast just came in time. We didn’t have time to send the breakfast back which, if time wasn’t pressing, we would have done. Shame since the hotel was otherwise lovely.
