King’s Cross express

Modern stylish room, very small and basic. Lovely refurbished shower room. Bed was comfortable. But noisy, definitely need earplugs. Would stay again as price is good for what you get.
Keith, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

While no doubt the room is clean and tidy, it's tiny 10sqm size is way too small for 2 adults each with a 28" luggage and a hand-carry bag. My wife & I must take turn to open our luggage atop the bed to take out our essential items, then close up and place the 2 luggage on upright position on narrow passage way by the room entrance in order not to block our entry to restroom. This, however, have effectively blocked the room entry which would post fire hazard. Luckily we only spent one single night here. Will we ever come back again? NO!

Dr, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The people at the front desk were nice and friendly. The room was clean but small. I wasn't able to sleep well for a few nights due to the noises outside the hotel. The housekeeping service needs to do a better job in providing amenities because a facial towel and a shower floor mat were not given to us after the cleaned our room for the second time during our stay.

10/10 Exceptional

Doesn’t stand out as a hotel from the outside you could and I did just walk by. Such a shame because everything inside and staff I couldn’t fault. More labelling as a hotel needed
Alison, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great stay

I was slightly apprehensive before arrival after reading some negative reviews. However we had a pleasant time at the hotel and have no complaints. Although compact the room was clean, modern and new, and the air con was appreciated . The staff were all lovely and friendly. London hotel rooms are small and I think if you know what to expect you will be less shocked. The hotel was in a great location just 5 mins walk from King’s Cross. I would recommend the hotel and would stay again
Vanessa, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Older hotel, but in good condition, rooms were good size and clean, staff on the front desk were really friendly. Area around the hotel isn’t the nicest especially on an evening- it’s 8 minutes walk to King’s Cross, which was conceived for our early Eurostar.

Good value first stay. Good bed and shower.

Really impressed with my first trip. I was in a room without windows which made it nice and dark and quiet for a good night's sleep. Shower was good. Lamps for reading and kettle in the room with good quality PG tips T bags. Friendly staff. Helpful pre stay information by email was clear. £25 deposit preauthorisation taken automatically and refunded promptly.

Great for conf at Business Design Center (BDC)

I was attending Quantum Commercializing conference at Business Design Center (BDC) 52 Upper St, this is an excellent location for that type of trip, 20 min walk. The room is small but has everything you need comfortable bed, modern decor, TV, full bathroom, small desk, kettle, I was comfortable here. Friendly Receptionist - Vidi, she was very accomodating. 10 min walk to subway, great location. I will definitely stay again, highly recommended.
