Great location and spacious
Pros:

We were upgraded to a "suite" in a separate building to the main hotel, it was clean, spacious with all the things needed for a comfortable night's stay. Espresso machine, great shower, warm, dry. Location great too, short walk to Kings Cross Station.

Cons:

All evening there were 2 vagrants on the steps entering the building, making noise and up to who knows what. I called reception twice requesting they be asked to move on. Eventually that seemed to happen.

I would certainly consider this hotel again if I were coming on the train.
Pros:

The location was very convenient especially its proximity to the St Pancras railroad station. The complimentary snacks and beverages in the room was also a wonderful surprise, a great variety of savory and sweet. The decor was nice as well. The breakfast was plentiful and the fruits were ripe and sweet. The many of the other guests seemed to be from the British Isles and they were all so friendly.

Cons:

Climbing up four flights of stairs w/luggage was not ideal. The view from the top floor room we were in was also not great since it was angled upwards on a dormer. The room also was rather small for a $200 +/night room

Lovely room, comfy bed, great location
Pros:

Great location, a 2 min walk to KX station with a lovely room overlooking the square. Really liked the design. Bed was comfortable with really good blackout curtains (we actually overslept longer than intended, it was so dark and comfy!) The room had everything we needed for a night in London.

Cons:

Initially, we were told we'd been upgraded to an apartment which was in the basement of a separate building but we found the bed was a small double (we'd specifically booked a large king as my husband is 6"4). Luckily, they switched us back to a room in the main building (The apartment is great if you want more space with kitchen and a full bathroom but we didn't think it was as nice as the main room and the basement was very noisy.)
Our bathroom was a corner of the room sectioned off with reeded glass - completely fine for us as a couple but may not work if you want more privacy in the bathroom!

Zeer fijn verblijf op een perfecte locatie om Londen te ontdekken.
Pros:

De ligging is zeer goed. Leuk ingericht hotel met zeer vriendelijk personeel.

Cons:

Het bed was aan de kleine kant. Wij hadden deze accomodatie gekozen omdat Booking aangaf dat bedden groot zijn, maar voor 2 personen was het bed toch aan de kleine kant. Wel comfortabel bed.

Pros:

The location was excellent for St Pancras. A bit quirky but bed was very comfortable. Plus once we found more lights it was a lot better.
Plus, we could leave our luggage to allow us to go off for the day.

Cons:

Unfortunately our room wasn't ready. Even though we had messaged with our time of arrival. That said, we were offered a drink and it was soon ready.
The showers don't provide a lot of room, so no good if you are a larger person.

Mediocre
Pros:

Location was great

Cons:

Very noisy within hotel. Basement room absolutely tiny, shower floods. For £190 it was not good value for money!

Pros:

Nice and relaxing hotel with a special vibe. It looks just like the pictures from the booking site. All in all it is fresh and clean. The touch with the small garden is amazing and makes the room feel even bigger. Only downside is the breakfast. It is good but basic and not as big as we would have liked. So no pancakes or big variety but the little there is, is good and there is small snacks for the afternoon and tea and coffee sparkling water all day and night.
