Josie, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

A great place to stay when visiting London. Centrally located, very clean, great air conditioning. Luggage storage and friendly staff. Only complaint was lack of lounge area, rooms are small and there isn't anywhere that you are allowed to eat outside your room if you don't want to go out. Overall I highly recommend.

Jessica, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Clean spacious double room with sofa for for relaxing, clean and tidy bathroom with plenty towels and toiletries, quiet on an evening 10 min walk from Kings-cross station. Only thing missing was some bottle. water in room. Luggage storage after check out so you can still explore without dragging case around. Would definitely stay here again though for future trips to London.
Lisa, 1-night trip

Great visit
Patricia C, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Not great value - the room was fine, if a bit sparse. The bathroom needed repainting and generally updating. Hotel is quite far from tube stations.

small rooms and odd shower
Isabella, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Room was clean and teas and snacks were stocked. Hair dryer was not working at the room, but the replacement was promptly provided upon request. Breakfast had a good variety of food and drinks.
Daria, 3-night trip

4/10 Poor

Air conditioning in bedroom didn't work properly so it was extremely hot at night time. In the gym it was non-existent so it was like working out in a sauna! Premium double room was advertised as sleeping 4 people but it was such a squeeze we were forced to get a second room.
Alex, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Location isn’t bad. An easy walk to Kings Cross even with large suitcases. The room itself had a very musty smell which wasn’t pleasant. The air conditioning was terrible in this current heatwave. It was cooler in the hallway than the room.
Samara, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Amazing service from the staff here!! Highly recommend the stay!
