Hotel Kings Cross - St Pancras, London

I booked this hotel as it is a Trafalgar Tour recommended Hotel and we were staying there on the completion of our tour. I really enjoyed my two night stay. The staff at reception delivered a high level of customer service and were friendly and helpful. The rooms were comfortable and the hotel is close to Angel Station and restaurants/cafes. I felt safe walking at night in the surrounding area. I would definitely stay here again.

We stayed here as it in an excellent location near to Islington High Street. A god hotel although the continental breakfast was a bit dissapointing. Great bar - The Castle - just next door.

Only used the Euston Thistle for a quick overnight stay prior to catching 6.20am Eurostar. Hotel is clean and tidy with helpful staff. Bathroom fittings look slightly worn.

Great location. A problem that you have to pay for wifi access - in comparable hotels in Sweden it is free. Also an issue that in the middle of summer having only quilts as bedcovering can make it rather hot at night.

The hotel was perfect for my needs. I had business near King's Cross before returning to the US. My one complaint was that I could not get into my room until 1:30 pm. The receptionist insisted that there was not a single room available at that time. This was a problem since I had arrived from Cambridge at 10 am. The breakfast was plentiful but not especially memorable.

Wir hatten ein Zimmer ohne Sicht, dafür das Surren von Klimaanlagen-Generatoren, denken wir. ABER das Zimmer war ausreichend groß und die Lage genial. Wir haben nichts vermißt, außer einer festen Matratze und einem formbaren Kissen! Da das Hotel nicht ausgebucht war, durften wir das Zimmer gratis für den Tag nutzen bis wir um 17h zum Eurostar mußten. Das fanden wir sehr kulant. Wir würden jederzeit gerne wieder in dieses Novotel gehen.

I would stay their again

My daughters, ages 28 and 25, and I went to visit London to learn about British history, visit the tourist spots, etc. We chose the Holiday Inn since it was the only hotel that pictured two double beds. When my [...] travel information was emailed to me, it appeared that there would only be one double bed and a sofa bed for the third person. When we arrived at the hotel I explained that I saw pictures of two double beds when booking and hotel girl was very nice to accomodate us right away. Overall the hotel was very clean and service was fine. Our only complaint was that it was too far from "the tube". I knew when I booked the hotel that it was four or five blocks away, but after a day of touring/walking, the four or five blocks to get back to the hotel was a bit far. Also, we weren't sure about how safe the area was in the evening, though nothing ever happened to us. Next time, I would book a hotel closer to "the tube".

Great location--very close to Russell Square tube stop and handy little mall with grocery store, popular coffee shop and several restaurants. Hotel is modern, clean, and generally consistent. Room was small but not tiny with electric kettle, tea and instant coffee. Refrigerator had been removed from room. Only minor negatives were inconsistent housekeeping--did not remove used coffee cups every day and took wash clothes with leaving new ones. Our bill had a bar charge that was not ours, which was removed without any problem.

I felt that my room was overpriced. It was small, very basic, and cost $800+ for three nights.

This hotel is in an AMAZING location. You are literally a walking distance from almost everywhere. Smack centre of London. About 2 minutes walk to Oxford Circus and about 5 minutes to Leicester Square, Piccadilly Circus, Soho, Covent Garden and Trafalgar Square. It is also conveniently located right beside the Warren St Tube Station so that you can get anywhere if you don't feel like walking or if you feel like seeing some areas that are a bit farther out. The only thing is that the hotel is situated near a hospital, so you can expect to hear ambulances and sirens throughout the night, but we thought it was worth staying in such a great spot! The lobby of the hotel is fantastic, the rooms are nice and clean but very small to North American Standards, but for Europe I think they were great. The only issue we found with this hotel was that the concierge was not helpful at all. They had no idea about anything in town and could not direct us/give us advice to get anywhere. Typically, you would expect more from a 4 star hotel. Over all we had a WONDERFUL experience and would definitely recommend staying at the Radisson Grafton on Tottenham Court Rd. for a lovely London experience!

Hotel and staff were very good. Great location. Queen size bed a bit tight.

City size room, but location was GREAT! Train station and Underground subway very close. Several bus routes right outside entrance. Hotel staff very helpful.

Small but nice rooms. Free WiFi throughout. Small exercise room downstairs. Nice breakfast, although not included in room rate. Bathroom is small.

I had booked through [...], the hotel staff couldn't find my reservation. But they were nice enough to give me the last room available for the night. The room is tiny, the bathroom is tiny. The window can not be opened, it's kind of stuffy in the room. There is a lift but I still needed to lug the luggages up and down some steep stairs to get to my room. The location is awesome, right outside of Euston station, but the room is quiet.

We stayed one night at the Megaro close to the end of a 2-week vacation; so we had several comparisons to other British hotels, including another 4-star hotel just two blocks from the Megaro. It just didn't stack up! Ironically, it was our most expensive but least liked. Room was clean, but extra small with minimal amenities. Shower looks futuristic but is not easy to use. Proximity to the train stations was great for convenience. However, the noise levels of motor traffic, sirens, and people yelling in the streets prevented a good night's sleep. Staff were courteous and professional. The restaurant "cooked breakfast " was so-so. We don't understand the 4-star rating and suggest they review their pricing and rating policies.

A small room, but very clean and has ammenities like wireless and cable. It took a little time to find the electrical outlets and ethernet port, but eventually I found them (above the coffee maker!). The bathroom is small and I'd imagine the shower would be difficult for large people, but average folk will find the phonebooth like experience OK.

The hotel is very pretty from the outside and has a very pretty, small courtyard in the back. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The bathroom is EXTREMELY small (think Airline Bathroom) and the shower is the smallest shower I have ever seen. I was traveling with one of my daughter's. It's a good thing my husband wasn't with us, as he wouldn't have fit in the shower. The location was good and was a 5 minute walk to the Russell Park metro station. The Room was clean.

My stay was for a total of 9 days. Found the central location ideal for my sightseeing and the convenience of St. Pancras for my day trip to Paris on the Euro Star. There were some problems due to the hotel being under renovation but all were addressed promptly and taken care of by a very efficient staff. Continental breakfast was OK. I would not only stay here again but would recommend this to fellow travelers.

EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT. THE ONLY THING I WOULD CHANGE IS THE BREAKFAST, PROBABLY MORE FOOD OPTIONS. ROOM WAS GOOD SIZE AS WELL AS THE BATHROOM. STAFF VERY POLITE.

This was a great hotel. The check-in was very efficient and friendly. The room was good, if a lttle small. However, that is what one expects in London unless you are prepared to pay over 150. The English Breakfast (included in the price) was excellent; and efficiently and freshly prepared. There was a small problem with the Shower, but judging by the positive reaction to my feedback I guess this will will be resolved quickly. I will certainly be staying there again.

Good reasonably priced hotel and very helpful and polite staff in a good location. Excellent location for a number of museums and especailly Eurostar and Kings Cross stations. Also well located for many well priced pubs, restaurants and cheaper eateries. Myself and my partner enjoyed our stay and would return.

Everything that you would expect from a 5* hotel. Just one unfortunate aspect, for my wife and me personally: we were looking forward to the re-opening of the (original) building as a hotel after so many years - BUT our accommodation was in a new building adjacent to the original - but as a 5* hotel we found no faults.

The hotel is just off of both Russell Square and Tavistock Square (where one of the bus bombings took place; take time to note the memorial plate outside the British Medical Association). The Bloomsbury area is great. The hotel is one block (as the crow flies) from Russell Square Tube stop and just two blocks from the British Museum. If you're young and healthy you can EASILY walk from the hotel to Leicester Square and also to Trafalgar Square. The hotel was extremely clean and odor free. I had a street view and if you lean your head out you can see Russell Square. This was my second one-night visit in the same week (I was in Manchester for most of the trip). On my first arrival at about 11:00 am no room was available, so I had to leave my bags. They have a GREAT sort of machine-like method of leaving bags so you can go out and do stuff right away. On my second stay, I arrived at about 10:30 am and my room was ready, so I was able to pop up and leave both my bags and some breakables from Manchester. When you arrive, there will ALWAYS be tons of buses in the courtyard, and lots of people meandering in the lobby. Don't let it frighten you; they are in large tour groups, so just politiely make your way to the check-in desk. Check-in both times was quick, efficient and easy (despite the crowds of bus-tour folks). My only real complaint is breakfast. The included breakfast is toast, rolls, butter, jam, various cereals/canned fruits/yoghurt. The full English was, as I recall 4.99 pounds (so about $10). That is fine, but the table set-up is like a large U.S. public high school. That is to say, 6 people to a rectangular table. The tables are very close together, so basically, you're tense and crowded. Get there as soon as it opens (check the time for the given week day or weekend day). I don't like people on top of me while I'm eating, so I had my toast, jam and coffee and left. Again, the hotel can't be beat for location. It lacks any ambiance; there's a nice bar there if you need a beer afer hours, but otherwise no real common space. However, one is only sleeping and showereing there after all. The station is within walking distance, so the hotel's location was doubly convenient. It is also within walking distance of St. Pancras and King's Cross (unless you're lugging a LOT of heavy or breakable things). If looking again for a Bloomsbury Hotel, I would consider it. London single-room hotel rooms simply don't get much cheaper than $150 US anymore (not without facing grime or geographical inconvenience). So, bottom line: if you stay here, you'll probbly have no real complaints, AND you'll be able to walk to quite a few must-see things without putting out the significant cash for a cab or tube fare.

The Royal National Hotel is extremely close to the British Museum, a must see for mummy fans. Although somewhat confusing as to which side of the hotel to check into (the south side) and lacking internet in the rooms, the hotel was adequate, if a bit pricey. The free breakfast is a little meagre, but you can upgrade for 4.50 pounds. Internet in the lobby tended to be slow during peak hours, but easy to access (Many Univ. of London students were availing themselves of the service).

Pas très pratique: Assez loin du metro Et surtout la douche est inutilisable sauf si vous êtes très petit et très mince...Le petit dèj est minimal ( 2 toasts), avec de l'eau tiède pour le thé.Et bien sûr, il y a le bruit de la route.

Hotel staff not aware of our reservation thru Orbitz. We were told room was not available for all four nights but they fixed it. I suppose you get what you pay for. Peace of mind, mostly. Could've probably done as well (location or price) if we'd flown in without reservations & looked on our own because there are plenty of small hotels like this.

飯店位置很方便

Location excellent as we arrived at Euston station and left on Eurostar the next morning. Also not far to walk to interesting places. Receptionist friendly. Service at breakfast friendly and good choice of breakfast considering price. We had a ground floor room but it felt safe. The room and en-suite were quite small but comfortable enough for 1 night. Kettle and hair dryer provided. We will probably try somewhere cheaper next time as it may not be much different.

I paid for one bed in a 4-bed room on internet. But when I checked in, the front girl gave me a bed in a TEN-bed room!!! Regardless I told her this is NOT what I paid for, she insisted that she cannot do anything about it. At last, I had to pay extra £20 to switch to a 4-bed room. The hall-way was shabby while the shower room was really clean. The bed sheet was wrinkled, like someone has used it already. Do watch your head if you are given a bottom bed.

at first disappointed, your email to me to confirm my booking said "Room description: Dormitories room. Contains one single bed. Suitable for one person." which made me believe I would get as I asked - a single room to myself - email was misleading. However, breakfast was good and staff were helpful. Hostel conveniently situated for tube and chipshop.
