The hotel is conveniently located in Argyll square, close to many restaurants and opposite the train station. The rooms have their own private bathroom and fresh towels, but there's no hot water for the shower. The service was excellent with attentive staff available at all times. The dining experience offers delicious grilled dishes, and the facilities are basic but functional. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The location was convenient, close to the station and with a peaceful atmosphere. The rooms were cozy and clean, but the lack of hot water for the shower was a downside. The service was top-notch, always attentive and helpful.
Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. Despite having my own private bathroom, fresh towels, and a single bed, the lack of hot water for my shower was quite inconvenient. The location was excellent, very close to Argyll Square and with easy access to train stations and buses for Trafalgar Square. However, the dining options were limited to homemade muffins, and the price did not entirely reflect the value offered.
The hotel has a superb location, right next to King's Cross station and close to the Tube. The rooms are clean and comfortable, but unfortunately, my private bathroom lacked hot water for a shower. The staff were always attentive and helpful, making my stay pleasant overall. However, the dining experience with the included home-made pies and jams was a standout. The price was reasonable considering the location and amenities, but the hot water issue was a drawback.
This hotel is a mixed bag. The service is attentive and available at all times, which is a definite plus. The location, while near the station and Kings Cross Station, is in a quiet neighborhood, but the charm of being opposite a small park adds a nice touch. Dining may not be included for all guests, but the availability of eggs is a highlight. Overall, the price and value for money can vary depending on individual preferences.
