Comfortable and quiet

Arrived early evening, friendly reception. First impression clouded by ongoing renovations so limited temporary restaurant facility in basement. Food good and service speedy. Very comfortable and quiet nights sleep. Buffet breakfast was fine hot selection could have been warmer but maybe due to temporary facility. Across thw road from Euston Station and 10 mins from St Pancras.

Nice but missing fundamentals

Nice hotel overall but I was put in a deluxe room which had a huge bed but the smallest of bathrooms, so much so that there wasn’t even a shelf to put toiletries on nor a mirror to sit down at to allow for make up application

Good location but for a 4 stars hotel was expecting bigger bathroom and need of shelves to put one’s own toiletries and hanging hooks for clothing.The only space we could use was to put our stuff on top of the toilet with the seat down .

Lovely hotel

Lovely modern hotel with friendly staff. Rooms had everything you needed. The only thing that wasn't good was the bathroom. It was clean and well decorated however the shower design wasn't great as water went all over the bathroom leaving a puddle on the bathroom floor so it was constantly wet as there was nowhere for it to drain. We had towels on the floor but they were soaked also. The pillows were also a little soft for us but that's not a bad thing. We had a lovely stay all in all.

Whilst the staff were delightful the hotel is undergoing major renovation with no warnings given. Only 1 lift which was being used for paint and staff and materials for the renovations making it slow, unreliable and dangerous. The gym and washrooms for the bar and restaurant were out of action. There were also technical problems within rooms (heating stuck at 16 degrees and tvs not working).
