“In my opinion, this hotel balances modern needs with a distinctively quirky charm, a rare find at its price point in central London. Its proximity to King's Cross makes it incredibly convenient, and I appreciate that a continental breakfast is included. While the building's layout involves stairs, the staff's attentiveness more than compensates.”
