"OK hotel, bar and food service not great"

Hotel was a fairly nice , Went to the bar around 10pm and couldn`t get any bar food, and even snacks were very limited, in fact i could only get 1 packet of crisps - as it was my daughters birthday we wanted some cocktails, which were very over priced. 3 cocktails £46, bar man was rude when i questioned the price. Hotel wasn`t in a great area either and certainly not close enough to walk to the theatre. I wouldn`t recommend staying here for a theatre break.

Overall the hotel was excellent, when I was tidying up in the morning I looked under the beds and they hadn`t been cleaned under there for weeks. Old socks rubbish, fluff, it was pretty disgusting. This was under both double beds as we had a family room.

"Great hotel"

Comfy bed, nice room and bathroom. We were given the option between a shower and bath tub. Room was very warm with no option to open a window - we`re only in March so not sure how the summer would be in there.

"Overall good service."

Disappointed to find out that there was a charge to use the facilities and we particularly chose the hotel for this reason. We weren`t told on check in about this and had to discover this when we went to the leisure club. The room was said to be a room for 4 and there were not 4 mugs, glasses or biscuits.

Bit of a walk from Kings Cross Station, but well worth it. Quiet rooms, with all amenities. Did have to ask for 3rd mug and extra biscuits! Comfortable beds and great shower.

"London weekend trip"

Nice clean modern hotel with good overall facilities and efficient staff. Note however the pool is much smaller than it appears in the photos and there is an extra charge to use it. Also the hotel is approx 20 min walk to nearest tube station so worth knowing for the elderly or those with young children.

"Good Hotel, bit to far from Tube station (10 to 15 min walk), especially when weather is not so good"

Good quality hotel, very clean, friendly staff and good condition. Extra charge for the pool which I thought to be a bit strange.

As we were so busy in London we didn`t spend a lot of time in the hotel but it was immaculate on arrival & we had been given a free upgrade to a larger room. The bathroom was clean & functional with a bathrobe & slippers provided.

"Best hotel ever "

I cant fault this hotel, they were all friendly and answered all our questions. We were in an executive twin and it was clean, with lots of hoodies my teenager took home plus the breakfast was the best yet!

"Nice Hotel "

Nice clean hotel with limited spa and on the small side, needs some touch up in the leisure centre, Exc room very small and crammed with a oversize desk and too much furniture. Be aware its a good 30 mins walk away from theatre...

Although this hotel was very nice/ clean etc it was a bit further out than I felt was advertised. Close to kings cross if you call £10 in a taxi close. Also the leisure facilities, pool / gym ( hardly a gym.. a few weights) sauna ( door didn`t close properly)....small pool, you actually had to pay extra for each use of this facility which they didn`t tell you until you checked in

"Not Happy"

After complaining about dust being blown about the room from a missing ceiling vent, needing coffee and milk, and the coldness of the room, nothing changed, not very helpful staff. Then later on requesting help in ordering room service, the only help i got was you need to go to your room and ring for room service, when i did this we were told it was finished and they put the phone down. Not a Hotel i would recommend.
