You have to climb a staircase which is rather steep and narrow. There is no lift and if you happen to live on the 4th... More

Small room, but newly renovated and clean. Double bed a little small. Bloomsbury is a nice neighbourhood to stay in. When breakfast is cooked, it smells in the whole hotel. Sometimes queue to get af table for breakfast (in the weekend).

Stayed here for 1 night - excellent position, a short walk from Kings Cross/Euston stations overlooking a pleasant London cresent garden. Room was good, beds were comfy, bathroom spotless with thick fluffy towels and breakfast better than at some more expensive hotels we've stayed in. We will definitely stay here again. The one drawback for some might be lots of... More

I use this hotel when I am in London on business.The rooms are spotless, staff are great and breakfast is spot on. Also great value for money. The hotel is a 5minute walk from Kings Cross and Euston so can be an ideal base for anywhere in London.

We had booked 2 months in advance through the hotel´s own website, and asked for a double ensuite in an upper floor. Despite that, we were given a family room in the... More

The reception was very short manner. They did not provide shower's stuff such as shampoo, and there is table but no chair. When they were asked questions about the service, they had a very IMPRESSIVE comment after saying no. The comment was "this is UK but not Asia". Do they only provide service to all people except Asia people? If... More
