Great Northern Hotel, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel, London

Kings Cross-Islington London|0.63km from Visitor Centre
The bed was very high and uncomfortable. The check-in day was December 25. A man helped me check in. Later, a female staff member appeared and recommended me to add money to upgrade. In fact, the room was definitely not full that day. If I said that I gave me a room upgrade, I would like to express my gratitude. It does n’t matter if you do n’t have this treatment. If you do n’t order a more expensive one, it ’s better to be greedy. This woman has been mentioned more than once if you do n’t upgrade. Anyway, I felt that it would not be arranged well without upgrading. Her attitude was really uncomfortable. For more than 1,000 nights, anyway, my room type was not suitable, and the cleaning staff opened the door without knocking after entering. Now, she said she did n’t know anyone, anyway, the hotel service is not good

St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel London

Kings Cross-Islington London|0.77km from Visitor Centre
Y'all, we will return again and again. We just discovered this rather modest and plain building ten months ago. I kid, of course, about the building. It's incredible. Jaw dropping. And, surprisingly, full of natural light. We came back to London just to stay here. Checked out last Sunday. We had a large, quiet suite. We planned for a five night stay, but the French train strike kept us in London, and our suite was available, so we stayed eight nights. A big shout-out to Irene at the front desk who gave us the warmest welcome and took good care of us. Excellent staff all around. Another shout-out to Emmanuel in the Chambers Club, too. This neighborhood rocks, btw. You've got everything here, plus Cornish pasties and Harry Potter at Kings Cross, Google HQs and the restaurants that surround that, and the super cool Coal Drops Yard beyond that. We did a load of laundry across from Mary Shelley's place two blocks away. I ❤️ London. Any issues were minor and this place gets plenty of grace. The shower is piping hot, but the tub, which might sit next to original windows, could not get hot. The jacuzzi in the spa was cold our entire stay. In the Chambers Club, hot food struggled to stay hot. But, y'all, we were in a massive winter storm, and, again, this place gets grace. Oh, and no merch for sale. I would have bought those hand painted cups in our room. And you cannot help but bust into ”Wannabe” on the grand staircase. Enjoy ☮️
The Standard London
4.5/556 Reviews

The Standard London

Kings Cross-Islington London|0.8km from Visitor Centre
Just finished a four night stay at the Standard Hotel in London. This is my first trip back to London post Covid and wanted to find the latest and greatest and the Standard has raised the bar in the hotel and hot spot scene. I put the concierge team to the test as I always do and Istvan and his team did not disappoint. I sent a very detailed request of things I wanted to and places I wanted to go before I arrived. Upon arrival I was happy to accept a room upgrade from George at the front desk and he was quite helpful showing me around and we struck up a conversation about football. Upon entering my room I saw it had a massive terrace with beautiful teak furniture over looking the city center. The room was stylish and chic and cutting edge and even a bit “quirky” as the brand is known for. The restaurant on the first floor Isla, is as cool as you can imagine. The lobby flows into the restaurant with outdoor seating that is heated with a gas fireplace which is a nice touch. The service and food were spot on and the lobby feels like a home as it is filled with books, dj booth and the cool London locals as well as the jet set crowd. I went to see Istvan at the concierge desk who was put to the task of getting tickets for a few soccer/football matches for me. I was floored by the front row tickets he gave me. He sorted out trains, boats, cable cars and restaurants. I can’t imagine better service could be had. Saving the best for last, Decimo on the 10th floor is the place to be and people watch. The mix of music and food was the cool vibe that everyone tries to imitate but never does. The hotel is directly across the street from St. Pancras station and Kings Cross. International, or national rail lines as well as the tube/subway. There is not a better location in London as it literally is the heart beat of the city. Nice to see a hotel living up to the hype. Actually, they surpass it.
Kimpton - Fitzroy London, an IHG Hotel

Kimpton - Fitzroy London, an IHG Hotel

Bloomsbury London|1.56km from Visitor Centre
Staying at Kimpton Fitzroy is really amazing‼ ️Unexpectedly, I booked a hotel designed by Charles Fitzroy Doll, the first-class designer of the Titanic. The whole hotel is classical, magnificent and magnificent, as if living in a Victorian castle. There are only two Lucky George brass sculptures on the second floor in the world, one is in this hotel, and the other is on the Titanic, which is now sleeping peacefully on the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean 🌊… The room is small, but also very clean and tidy. The mattress was very comfortable and I had a good night's sleep. Will stay again.
Small Luxury Hotels of the World - the Academy
4.1/5110 Reviews

Small Luxury Hotels of the World - the Academy

Bloomsbury London|1.82km from Visitor Centre
The photos and website information about The Academy are incredibly deceptive about this boutique hotel. Sounded and looked lovely online and with a middling price of £188.00 per night B&B sounded a good choice for a solo mini trip to London. The reality was incredibly different. The hotel is scruffy and shabby and the loos smell of fish. Sadly, the service was non-existent and not at the level I would expect of a member of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World. I had a single room (which I chose as it was just me) on the ground floor overlooking the courtyard. It as very basic, but adequate and unlike the other reviews, it was quiet (except from the noisy air-con system). The en-suite was tiny, but the shower was reasonably powerful. As many have already mentioned, the room was stiflingly hot, with a small and inadequate air-con unit which struggled with the heat. I can only imagine what it would have been like when we had the 40C heatwave. I struggled to use the remote control device to work the air con and so, at 12.30am in my dressing gown, I went in search of someone to help me. Daniel came into my room and helped me to get the aircon working and it tried its best to cool the room down. By the next day, and with it on 24/7 the room did finally cool down. As someone else has also mentioned the lights from the aircon system lit up the whole room like a disco! The lights outside the room in the corridor also didn't turn off at night and so the room was bathed in a bright white light from outside and red, green and yellow lights from various fuse things in the room. So, once the air-con was working as best as it could, my attention then turned to the lights! I propped open the en-suite door to block out the light from the corridor, and then managed to pin and stuff towels and a spare pillow case over the disco lights to dim the bright glare. As you can imagine, the first night was a bit of a nightmare with not much sleep. Breakfast the next day was good and the staff in The Refectory were the first to greet me with a welcoming smile and were so helpful and attentive. The breakfast (and staff in the Refectory) have saved this review from being the lowest rating of Terrible. I am incredibly disappointed with my two night stay at The Academy and regret staying there. To finish on a positive note, the location was great and easy to walk to all the places that I wanted to walk to. So great location for Soho, Piccadilly, Covent Garden etc, but poor service and a tired and tatty hotel. So, Bloomsbury is super, just choose an alternative hotel.

Hub by Premier InnLondon King's Cross

Kings Cross-Islington London|0.41km from Visitor Centre
I stayed there for 5 nights. I was not very pleased as they gave me the “disabled/accessible” room despite being a solo traveller. The toilet and all it’s facilities were meant for the disabled/wheelchair bound. When I approached the receptionist asking for a change in rooms, she said she could not assist me because they were fully booked. However, I did not find that acceptable given that the booking and full payment was made months ago. No effort was made to ensure that there was a vacant room I could switch to during my 5 nights there. Room service is only done if you request for it. The dinner options downstairs is very limited as well. It is fairly near King’s cross station and I would only recommend due to the location. Service needs to improve.

Kings Cross-Islington London|0.57km from Visitor Centre
I lived in this hotel for the first time in the UK. The experience was very good at the time, the hotel is in a good location and cost-effective, so I thought I would choose to stay here afterwards. I wanted to book a room in advance for the second time this time, but chose a lot of dates without a room. Later only accessible rooms were available. Think about staying alive for two nights. Because one of them happens to be a New Year's Eve, it goes without saying that the price is not cost-effective. The room I gave was facing the street, and I didn't sleep well after a night of noisy. And this time the service attitude was very average. Retaining luggage is also reluctant. The front desk was also lazy. In short, I won't come next time. In the end, a penny is a penny, and a willingness to spend money on Mayfair's Marriott.

The Belgrove Hotel

Kings Cross-Islington London|0.79km from Visitor Centre
The location of the room is very good, just across the road from Kingcross Station, no more than 50 meters from the entrance and exit of the underground passage. It is very convenient to store luggage. There are two service staff encountered, one is warm and friendly, and the other is relatively cold. The stairway is relatively narrow, the spring on the door is a bit too powerful, and it is a bit laborious to enter and exit and go up and down the stairs. The room space is very small, 26 inches can barely be opened, and the suitcases 28 and above are estimated to be a bit difficult. The bathroom facilities are also relatively mini and the bedding is minimal. What facilities have been running outside the room, there is uninterrupted noise.

It’s alright, not great. Location is a little sketchy and there’s no real check in. The dude talks to you via text/WhatsApp, so it feels less professional than one would like. He did offer to try and fix a problem I had with bookings by offering another location which was nice, can’t knock his effort to help - but the price he was offering was a little too much for a ‘single bed and a mattress on the floor.’ I was away in London, I wasn’t gonna sleep on the floor after that long-ass train trip 😂 The bed was in the attic/loft and I kept hitting my head as ceiling was low, and I’m not particular tall. The smell of the building is pretty nasty too but luckily room smelt fine. Check in was pretty bad, no one would answer the door, I rang the guy and he said he’d ring the housekeeper. She answered and was very sweet, there was a language barrier though, she told us 2nd floor on right hand side but it turns out we were top floor left hand side. Not her fault, I’m a patience and understanding guy so I thanked her and continued the evening. Upon entering the room there was food under the sofa and a headband on the floor so instantly my girlfriend’s skin was crawling. Ever had an upset partner whilst on holiday? Yeah proper headache. 😂 It’s a little too expensive for what it is, but it’s semi decent, an alright location. Just wish they hadn’t charged the £7.50 cleaning fee, as I don’t think a wet mop on the floor and nothing else counts 😂 I’ll probs book again but only if it was the last place I could find! Not the owners fault though, as it seems he’s not there too much to check. Do, with this information, as you wish.

I turned up ready to put my legs up and rest before my early morning train. I was not looking for anything special but there is basic and then there is this! I was originally put in LG5 and told to go up the stairs, along the corridor and down the stairs. I followed the instructions but, not only could I not find the room, neither could a member of staff. Another one told me to go back along the corridor, up some stairs and down some stairs. I got to the staircase at the end of the corridor and it was blocked by piles of laundry and laundry bags! I went back to the reception desk and explained that neither myself nor staff could find the room. He agreed to give me a different one (a nicer one he said!) and said to go up the stairs and the room was on the right. He didn’t, however, give me a room number. I then started trying to get into the room on the right, then the next room on the right, then the next room on the right before I came up and went back to reception once again! He told me my room number and off I went again. I opened the room door to find a bed with no pillows or duvet and no bigger than a cupboard. I shut the door and headed back to the reception. I explained that I was not staying in that room and before I could explain why, he asked, “is it not clean?!” I explained that not only was it not clean, there were no facilities. He then snapped, “so, you just want to cancel this booking? Fine!” The carpets in the corridors were filthy, the staff couldn’t care less if they tried and the room was beyond basic. I left and booked the premier inn. Much better!
