Albion House  

Absolute dump - hot, airless, tiny room - .stayed here for eurostar connection, but none of our group could sleep a wink

The staff where nice and friendly. Location

Size of room No reception No food or vending machines No bar Toilet,shower and toilet connected together nothing to seperate them water flowing out bathroom to bedroom floor. Could only get two channels on tv no wifi working

Very close to King's Cross station. Room comfortable

staircases very narrow. Difficult to move luggage up and down

Room too small!

We were very satisfied with this hotel. Although the room was quite small, it was very comfy. The hotel's location is excellent. The breakfast was better (and cheaper) than in many other places in Paris. The room was cleaned and the towels changed every day.

We were not so happy about having to pay extra for breakfast and for Wi- fi access, but perhaps this is how they keep their prices so low. Overall we were very satisfied.

clean and reasonably comfortable

Breakfast was dire, bread and a broken toaster and 2 filthy cereal dispensers. None of the fruit or cheeses mentioned in the breakfast menu. Also you had to walk past a whole host of "friends of staff", blocking the doorways and hanging around chatting. Very very unpleasant. Wifi did not work at all, Only some TV channels worked.

The location of the hotel was perfect, it's literally just a 2minute walk from the tube/train station at Kings Cross St Pancras so this was really useful. We had a twin room, the rooms are very clean it's just on the small side. Our room was basically a small bedroom with 2 small single beds. If you are looking for something basic and aren't looking to be spending a lot of time in the room apart from sleeping over then I recommend this place. It is located in a fairly decent location, it's near a lot of other hotels/b&b's but around are lots of flats and is a residential area. Doesn't take long to get to the centre of town, for us to get to Leicester Sq/Oxford Circus it only took us abt 10/15mins on the tube. Also if you need access to Heathrow airport then it only takes you just under an hour to get there on the tube, costing you only about £5. I'd recommend this hotel definitely for its location but the rooms aren't worth what we paid. They should be at least £20 cheaper as the rooms were very basic, but clean.

The rooms being so small. The stairway was also really small. A larger person would find difficulty getting through the doors and hallways.

Our 2nd visit to Albion House / Melville Hotel associated hotels, much improved decor this year with a modern clean feel, though a little disturbing to sometimes hear water draining from bathrooms above through pipes in our walls. We appreciated the reception staff letting us leave our suitcases in a locked downstairs room until it was time for our train. I'm sure that we will be staying again next time we visit London

Little quirky to have to walk around to corner to another hotel for breakfast to a very small 'dining room' - sometimes having to queue outside if it was a busy time.

No staff poor internet horible smell no such bad experience again

Cheap but not cheerful. Staff not at all friendly. Would not recommend it.

Excellent location in attractive leafy square right beside Kings Cross Good value for money and warm

Minimalist damp smelling bathroom. Not much can be done about its size but try and get rid of the smell! Downsize or remove the wardrobe! Unnecessarily large wardrobe severely restricting movement in the room.

Its location.

Quite a few things and I will be contacting them, now I am back in the uk.

We got a "family room" which is simply a basement No room in the dining room Ugly shower
