Clean rooms. Good price. Reception service 24/7. Near a big metro station (King's Cross). But bedroom and bathroom were very small. There was no lift. It's a good choice to visit London because it's cheap and clean.

We stayed in the Wardonia for one night before we left Kings Cross for York; returning we stayed for one evening before we could access our London rental flat. Yes...the rooms are small, but the cleanliness of the facility as well as the helpful staff makes this a terrific experience. The first night -we had a room on the 3rd... More

We wanted a budget stopover near Kings Cross St Pancras station for an early Eurostar train. This was one of the cheapest en-suite options with Booking.com. It was adequate for the purpose. The staff we met on reception and a cleaner were polite and helpful. The room was clean, warm, and the bed comfortable. There was not a lot of... More

This hotel is located near King's cross. Only a 2 minute walk will bring you to the biggest metro and train station (st pancras) in london city. The rooms are very small (not a lot of comfort) but clean. What more do you want for this price when you're out all day? The staff is very friendly! We stayed here... More

The Wardonia Hotel (basic, no frills rooms), 46-54 Argyle Street London, I found in both Google Map Search for hotels near the King's Cross tube station (2 block) and within proximity to the British Library (2 blocks away). It was also recommended by a forum post on Rick Steve's website. It was 50 Pounds per night, versus the St. Pancras... More

Just returned from a four night stay at the Wardonia. We were a little concerned after reading some of the reviews before we left home, but this is a great hotel in an excellent location for getting round London. Yes, the room was small - but you don't go to London to sit in your hotel room. It has everything... More

As many reviewers said, the location is very convenient (from the tube, take the Euston Road South exit, not the North one!) and you will be there in less than 5 minutes. Again, the room and bathroom are small, but enough to be functional, and very clean and well-maintained. I got lucky I got a room on the 1st floor... More

This hotel is located really close to King's Cross tube station (and St Pancras). If you exit by the correct exit, it's just down the street. We received a room on the highest level (4th floor) and we had to lug our suitcases up the stairs which were super narrow, thus dangerous. The room was TINY - just 2 single... More

I stayed on two occasions recently in a single room and in a twin room. The rooms are small but functional. On both visits I found the rooms to be spotlessly clean. Small bathrooms with excellent showers. Tea/coffee, TV and wifi. It was cold weather during my visits but the heating was great. 24 hr reception. The walls are thin... More
