What a fun place to stay. So much character in a hotel. Super close and convenient to King's Cross St Pancras stations so it made it easy to get to most anywhere in London. If you want to be in central London, this is a great option. Easy train ride from Heathrow. The staff was always friendly whenever we arrived or departed the hotel.

Loved our stay in the well designed windowless room! Such a good nights sleep and very comfortable bed! Love the touches of the leather headboard, wool lined walls and tea service area. One complaint, the shower. Wood floor with slats? Where does the drain go? How do you keep it clean? So many questions…

The rooms were very small but well designed so it didn’t feel small. Also the placement of light switches and having reading lights on the headboard were lovely touches. Would have preferred to have a shower curtain or door in between sink area and shower as I was traveling with a friend and not romantic partner but that wasn’t too bad. Love that the toilet is secluded in its own room.

I liked the hotel, but I found the furnishings to be quite worn out. For the price that they are charging, I expect that they would maintain their furnishings in better condition. I did like all the little extras that they managed to put into such a small space. They were very good with making a small room so functional.

Never again
I would not recommend staying here. The room was shockingly overpriced - I’ve never felt so disappointed entering a hotel room before in my life. We stayed one night for a birthday trip and didn’t get any acknowledgment. I’ve stayed in hotels before at they at least wrote a note or provided SOMETHING as a treat. For over £400 for one night I expected something more than just a standard room. Other Standard hotels in different countries have provided more it’s a shame about this one in London. Stay somewhere else. We booked a drink in the rooftop and were told only standing tables were available despite 95% of the tables being empty. Not the birthday trip I expected. At all.
