Cannot recommend this hotel enough! Stayed here multiple times now. Always check if this is available before I book anywhere else. Literally a 2 minute walk from St Pancras, but located in a quiet square over looking a park. Perfectly clean and everything i needed for a bloke staying on his own in London for 3 nights. 100% will be back! Thank you 😊

Stop before getting early Eurostar. Hotel staff very friendly, room clean and comfortable but dated and mould around shower. Could hear everything from surrounding rooms but I did find the bed comfortable and so close to station. I will stay again but bringing earplugs.

A great little hotel only a few minutes walk from King’s Cross / St Pancras stations so it’s a great location for exploring London. Friendly and helpful staff, quiet location and a comfortable bed made my stay very enjoyable.
