Very close to Kings Cross St Pancras. A simple, clean and well organised small hotel, that is very suitable for a traveller seeking well connected overnight accomodation
Lovely clean safe hotel. Room was great with a lovely balcony. Lots nearby, metro, shops and dining options. Great base for our weekend in Paris. Staff very friendly and helpful. Communication prior to our stay was exceptional. Highly recommend this hotel.
This hotel is a very specific solution that does its job excellently. It is clean, bright, the team communicates clearly and frequently. The rooms are comfortable and there is attention to detail paid to the small things. Extras include: ability to store luggage, a small 'tuck' shop including recycled chargers, fruit, maps, many necessities and comforts. The staff make you feel like you have arrived somewhere that cares.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff were very welcoming.
The bedroom and en-suite were clean.
Very helpful staff at reception. Clean rooms and facilities. Comfortable simple room. The walls are very thin and floor creeky so you hear a few sounds but guests were quiet and respectful when I was there in January.
The front desk staff were all very pleasant and the hotel is kept clean and tidy. I had a single ensuite room which was compact, but bright and clean and comfortable enough. For travellers with luggage, please note that there is no lift and the stairs are narrow. However, the hotel has a location very close to two railway stations and several underground lines and that is useful. Would I stay again. Yes, for short stays.
Great stay, would absolutely recommend. Room was obviously small, but it was absolutely fine for me, as I was travelling on my own. Really convenient location, great staff, clean; I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Liked: Cleanliness
I stayed in a standard double room. It was great if you are just looking for a basic room for a short say. Very clean and the staff were polite and helpful. The shared toilet was very narrow and cramped, would probably pay the extra for the en suit room next time.
