“The Brutalist architecture makes a striking first impression, as does the location near St Pancras. Inside, the style is matched by exceptional bars, restaurants and live music; it's a genuine cultural hub, not just a place to stay. I think it's the kind of place where you could easily spend a whole day without venturing outside.”
