Carlton Hotel  

Location is excellent. Close to Underground and National Rail....Many choices of food and supermarkets nearby. Staff is ok. The breakfast is fair, but those 2 ladies there are very hard-working. Internet works inside the room, but the signal is very weak. We never try the downstair lobby.

The hotel is located at main intersection. Traffic is very busy and noisy, especially a lot of sirens all day long. We need to close the window at night and leave the fan on, or bring the earplugs with you. The room is very small that we are expected. However the furniture is very cheap and lack of maintainance. The drawers are broken and there is a fist mark on the toilet door. We stay there for 6 nights. They clean the room everyday, but the floor is never been swapped/mopped. Besides we need to use our shampoo, tooth paste... One of the wall plug is not working. If they can rotate different choices of breakfast everyday, it will be much better. Then we don't need to eat the same breakfast for a week! Moneywise I still recommend.

Next to King's Cross St. Pancras station, so you can go easily in ever place you want to London. The area has many 24/7 restaurants and mini markets and you can have anytime, everything you want.

There were no sockets inside the room, so if you want to reload your cell phone for example, you have to find another option. The breakfast restaurant was very small and the breakfast was very poor, considering the price of the room.

Easy to reach, opportunity to leave luggage safely, free wifi.

Bit noisy, both street as upstairs neighbours, but to be expected (bring earplugs). Breakfast wasn't too good, staff a bit stressed out. Bathroom was really narrow, wouldn't recommend this hotel to a somewhat bigger person.

Room was clean, cotton sheets, breakfast provided.

Only two bars of soap for toiletries. Only one cup and saucer and glass even though booked for a couple - although we didn't bother asking for more! Ensuite a bit small. Only had powdered milk for tea/coffee. Very noisy outside hotel on Saturday night - shouting, swearing, sirens! Quieter on the Sunday. Fortunately we had been given a room facing the side street and not Euston Road itself. I'd e-mailed to ask if we could leave luggage there, reply said that there was a luggage room which there wasn't although we were able to leave suitcase behind bar on arrival. When leaving we were told suitcase couldn't be left behing bar but on show, so decided to leave at Left Luggage instead at station.

clean, safe, close to trains tube/buses good value. stayed in new part of hotel

not a complaint but..note that...... rooms in london are small and you will have to be carry your luggage up stairs

We were in London for less than 24 hrs, so we liked the fact that the hotel was only across the road from Kings Cross. The breakfast was good quality, as we didn't expect much as the hotel is cheap for London. Not much choice, but enjoyable. Very comfy bed.

The rooms were 'tired' well more like exhausted, but clean. We mended the tv and the shower and the tap !!!! Don't be put off, it's ok for a one night stay.

The breakfast was freshly made and hot. The beds were comfortable and sheets were clean. It was near the station (across the road) so convenient if travelling on somewhere by train.

The over-mirror light was not working in the bathroom and one of the bedside lamps was also broken. There was not a convenient socket to use for the hairdryer I.E. not near the dressing table and mirror. The furniture was very low budget and was badly chipped.

Location

Noise at night

Very cramped room.....one tea bag and no coffee....kettle safe but with broken lid...one bedside lamp with top hanging off.....in entrance area toilet opening in to the stairwell.......in general a clean hotel but with a slightly seedy feeling..

It was close to St Pancras station

Not a lot very handy for St pancras is only good point

Receptioist did not really want to be there. Smell of smoke. Avoid if possible

Nothing it was a dreadful experience. Cold, damp, dirty pillows

apart from below it was good value for money

the radiator controls didn't work so half the night we were too hot and then we opened the window and half the night was far too noisy from traffic
