Good value for money for this hotel very close to Kings Cross St Pancras.
A little noisy because of the traffic unfortunately but difficult to avoid that in this district

Though the double room I had was small but it was very comfortable and well designed. I found the room like being in the warm cuddle of my mum. I slept very well. My only criticism is that there is no room service or restaurant. And it is a walk to find this. But I would stay there again.

Great for a short stay, great location in kingsX
Great for one night. We have a small double room which was small and good for 1 night, my 6ft tall boyfriend struggled with the small room but we only booked 2 days before and there were no bigger rooms available.

Just do
Room was tiny, literally no room to swing a cat and not suitable for 2 people. No terrestial tv so you have to sign in on your accounts for iPlayer, ITVX etc. also security guard kept tapping on the door to ask what the room number was! Highly irregular in my view. I think a refund may be in order. If you’re thinking of booking a room here - don’t.

Just for sleep
It is a very small hotel and ideal if you need a place to rest/leave your things. It is near the train station and seems ideal if you are leaving early for the Eurostar. Good service, and near some good restaurants.

The hotel is clean and the ambience is also cozy. But the rooms are very narrow and the toilet sink is very small
