Excellent stay

Check in was super quick and Thanveer supported a newer member of staff to get us quickly checked in. He was very attentive and advised we had been give a free upgrade on our rooms the top floor. Breakfast had been included. The room was comfortable and spacious. After an hour of being in the room we received a knock at the door. A lovely lady deliver balloons and a bottle of prosecco off with a nice anniversary message. Food for evening meal amd breakfast was lovely, fresh and well prepared. 20 mons nice walk from Kings Cross, but if you have luggage get a taxi.

Air conditioning in bedroom didn't work properly so it was extremely hot at night time. In the gym it was non-existent so it was like working out in a sauna! Premium double room was advertised as sleeping 4 people but it was such a squeeze we were forced to get a second room.

Clean spacious double room with sofa for for relaxing, clean and tidy bathroom with plenty towels and toiletries, quiet on an evening 10 min walk from Kings-cross station. Only thing missing was some bottle. water in room. Luggage storage after check out so you can still explore without dragging case around. Would definitely stay here again though for future trips to London.
