Overall, for the price and proximity to public transport, can’t beat it. There were some beard hairs still in the sink when I checked in, but the rest was very clean. The walls are THIN, so probably not the place for any light sleepers.

The room was nicely sized and seemed like it had recently been remodeled. Finishes were pleasantly appointed. It had everything you need. Comfortable beds, large clean bathroom, plenty of space and closer to the Eurostar.

Lovely gem at Kings X

Thrilled with our stay here. The room was clean, looked recently re-done and very modern, comfortable bed and nice touches. It is clearly going through some renovations in the downstairs area so there was some noise in the daytime on Friday (however at very reasonable hours). Will stay again!

Hotel is overall clean and tidy but even with a renovation still looks a bit tired.Room in general was nice and updated, pillows were really hard but other than those minor things it was fine for just one night

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Everything was pretty good, as expected. The room was quite tiny, but I booked a single. The amenities were quite nice actually and the bed was comfortable and I slept well. If your goal is to be very close to King's Cross St Pancras (a major transit hub), and not spend a lot of money, then this is a fine choice. If you're looking for fancy, this isn't it. But it did the job and met expectations.

The property was under renovation, on the first morning there was no hot water for a shower and when we got there, there was no where to hang clothes it was a very small room, but it was comfortable.

Avoid this hotel, the only positive is that it is close to Kings Cross station. Rooms are tiny, no lift, tiny bed, tiny toilet, dirty…

Note that it is a very very small room. Also no A/C. Good if you’re just looking for a place to crash for the night. But would not stay there for more than one night.

Good base to explore the city

Stress free check in. Rooms are definitely smaller than they look in the pics. The room itself was one of the cleanest I’ve seen. However if you’re looking for a base for a short stay in the city close to most transport links & bars/restaurants. Can’t go wrong. Some building work going on around the hotel but obviously can’t be helped. Overall I would definitely stay again when back in London 🙂

Ok for a night.

Ok for a night near King’s Cross St Pancras which is easy to access within a few minutes walk. Payment was taken in advance even though I’d selected pay at property which was annoying as I wanted to use a different card, but stay was ok. Bed reasonable and shower ok. A little noisy, but not so bad with earplugs.
