It was awesome onec we got moved to a room above ground and with AC. The bottom floor room was smaller, with no AC but was still nice. It was hard in the heat. The hotel accommodated us nicely. Highlight was the breakfast!

Such a lovely hotel. The staff are very friendly and loved that there is a bar. There’s an outdoor terrace but it was raining so couldn’t use it. Lovely room, nice and clean and a huge bathroom. Great spot for Kings Cross area, up a small side street opposite the station - would definitely stay again

Very small and spartan room but super convenient to St. Pancras/Kings Cross stations. Staff was very friendly. Stairs were a bit awkward with heavy bags so I wouldn't recommend for anyone who would find that a challenge. Value for price so no complaints.

Overall a good stay, staff were helpful and pleasant. Only thing I can think of for improvement would be the WiFi doesn’t work in the fourth floor but everywhere else is great. Just be aware that there is no elevator (staff are on hand to help with luggages if needed) but isn’t that part of the charm with boutique hotel.

Good for one night in London, visiting Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Wouldn’t want to stay longer than a night, or if spending too much time in the hotel room. Little ventilation (very hot), and can hear the tube under the room at night. However, very clean, great location for transport and great value!

We got upgraded to a room on the ground floor based on our luggage and the difficulty getting it to higher floors. This was so kind and thoughtful and we really appreciated this after our full day of travel. The staff were so accommodating and the room was perfect.
