Hotel was very clean, room was well equipped but very small. Ours was a Club twin and we struggled getting round the beds without banging our knees every time. Great location though so would stay here again.

Tiny room, bad night’s sleep

Very small room, bed was too short. Did not sleep well due to fire alarms going off throughout the night. Coffee machine broken. Sadly, I’ve had to request a refund from the site as the stay was well short of expectation.

I stayed here last night in a club solo room and I wanted to leave a review. I found this hotel on Expedia but some of the mixed reviews recently made me sceptical about booking. I made a last minute booking for a club solo room and from the moment I checked in, the service was fantastic. The room was snug but lovely for a night and spotlessly clean too. The bed was great and the rooms were quiet. It’s clear that a huge amount has been invested in the hotel as the room felt brand new. The location is just under 10 minutes walk from St Pancras and next door to Euston station which made it perfect for catching an early Eurostar. I didn’t eat in the restaurant or have breakfast so I can’t comment on this but I’d highly recommend this hotel.
