Very convenient location for Kings Cross and St Pancras. Plenty of places to eat nearby. Friendly, helpful staff. The hotel has recently been redecorated. The only problem I had was that two hotel residents decided to start arguing with each other just outside the front door. The night receptionist did eventually adk them to stop.

Intimate smaller hotel type setting, a taste of the simplicity of hotels way back when. Warm welcome, professional and helpful. Be redy to climb stairs. Cute room with a water basin perfect for washing hands or brushing teeth. I enjoyed sleeping with the window open. Next return i've requested a quiet room away from bathroom traffic. Hotel is convenient and well located to everything. Safe.
