"Lovely hotel, shame it was double beds "

Shame that the twin rooms haven`t got single beds. Should have been advised about that on booking as it was tricky with family members. On asking the hotel reception we were told they only offer double beds. This wasn`t ideal with grandma, aunty and 2 cousins in a room.

"Lovely hotel "

Good size rooms, bedding & bathroom very clean. Nice eating area and breakfast included everything you could ask for. All the staff were polite and helpful. Lovely little pool, ideal for a gentle swim and use of the spa facilities was good (£3.50 charge) would definitely recommend this hotel. Location also close to King`s Cross station so very central.

"No parking is a major issue, hotel is excellent , staff superb, when travelling over 300 miles, "

When travelling over 300 miles , offering to pay extra to secure parking, which was refused would probably stop me from booking here again, lack of parking and refusal to accept booking for parking although I offered to pay double , up front, is very poor, would put me off staying again

"Very Modern "

Hotel was lovely the breakfast was excellent but paid £210 for the room with no breakfast, has to upgrade breakfast at a fee of £30 on top of the room charge. The closest tube station is about 20 minute walk. We only had one dressing gown in double room and took over an hour to bring it after the second phone call

Good, comfy and clean. Over zealous housekeeper who walked into room while wife was wrapped in a towel, checking the room had been cleaned. Apologetic but still unacceptable

"Pros & Cons"

We had 1 night room only - room was ready on arrival well before check in time. Twin room had 2 double beds, all the usual facilites. We used the spa which was really nice & had pre-booked treatments. I was enrolled in IHG club so had complimentary late checkout. The hotel is 15 minutes walk from the nearest tube (Kings Cross or Farringdon) and there isn`t much around the hotel although some pubs/shops 5-10 mins away. Breakfast over priced so we used the Bloom bar for tea & pastries.

The hotel is in a handy location, main station & tube a 10 minute walk away. Clean, the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was spacious, bed comfortable, the shower was amazing. Breakfast was buffet style and had plenty to choose from. We will use this hotel again and would recommend to others.

You should state that the swimming pool is part of a private club and that it is not free for guesses to use. Guesses can use it at an additional cost
