Location right outside St Pancras railway station. I was in room 3 and you can hear the underground trains from this room. It didn't bother me but if you are a light sleeper you will not be able to get to sleep.

I stayed across the road in the Fairway, a sister hotel and found it excellent the room was small but suited my needs. It was very clean and all of the facilities that I would expect in an ensuite room. Breakfasr was also very good sufficient to set you up for the day.

I definitely advice the Central Hotel for its situation (from the main door of the hotel you can see a side of Saint Pancras train station). King's Cross / Saint Pancras underground stop proposes more than 4 lines to travel easily and quickly in London (don't forget that the tube is very clean). Our bedroom (the 8) was very clean, the room service pay you a visit every morning at nearly 10 o'clock, the towels are changed everyday, also the toilet paper. We did not succeed in solving a problem with their french plugs : the english watts are too powerful for our french items. The limit time to go to the breakfast room is too early (9 o'clock during the week and only a half past 9 during the week end). The corridors are a too narrow.

-Location is perfect (almost in front of King's Cross Station). -Staff very helpfull -Free wi-fi They don't have enough tables for breakfast. So we had to wait about ten minutes for a table. They only have toasts, cereal, coffee and milk for those who don't like British breakfast.

Great location. Extremely nice staff - helpful and willing. Confortable room though a bit small (but standard size for London). Excellent quality/price ratio! Nice breakfast included in price. Acceptable amenities though a bit old. Room clean, properly ventilated, not too warm, not too cold. As said before, the room is a bit small, but it's rather standard size for London.

The room was clean and recently refurbished. The wi-fi was good with a strong signal. This is not a hotel, it is a b&b, it forms part of a row of townhouses, and the reception area was across the road (I was in the Fairway). The room was very small (even though it was a double), it was ok for 1 person with a small case, but 2 people would struggle with larger luggage. There was no security lock on the door. The window would not close completely making the room very noisy. The breakfast room was far too small, even going down several times I did not get a table.

Pretty basic hotel, but reasonably clean. Obviously, the location near kings cross st pancras played a big part in my decision to stay there. It's one of the better places around kings cross going after the budget traveller though. Room was very small but you can't argue about the price anyway. Small rooms. Old bed.

We enjoyed the hotel because mainly its location was great. The staff were very pleasant and always had time to talk. The rooms weren't huge but we didn't need a big room. it was very cosy. i will say there was a lot of work going on at the time and at times some dangerous objects lying about. But apart from that we loved it.

Good location, with plenty of buses to main tourist attractions. Room was clean with everything we needed - en-suite, tv (for young child!), tea and coffee making facilities. Good cooked breakfast, served quickly with a smile!! Also able to help yourself to cereals, cold meats and cheese etc.

The location. The breakfast. Heating system was good. Your clothes smell after the breakfast. The bathroom was way to small and not friendly.

Clean and great value for money including tea & coffee making facility; a tv with all the freeview channels and a nice shower. There was poor internet connectivity in my room; I suppose it depends where you are located within the hotel in relation to the modem.

Staff very acomodating although they did not have information about the area and could not help with busses etc. Room was very warm and a mobile radiator was in the room for extra heat which was not needed. Windows opened to cool room. Lots of drawers etc Too many steps for less ambulant guests- even ground floor rooms had 2 steps down then 2 steps up and the room had a step within from the ensuite to the bed area.

The hotel has central location, only few steps from King's Cross. The beds are comfortable, the breakfast is basic, but enough.

Nothing special but completely ok in general. Too small, we had big problems with our baby buggy, difficult to take up by the stairs, and almost no place in the room.

The hotel room was spotlessly clean and hygienic. It had all of the basic facilities required, albeit a little cramped particularly the shower ant toilet area. For a weekend it satisfied all of our needs.

The staff was very helpful - assisting with my heavy luggage up the stairs; making arrangement possible where I could stay in an ensuite room upon request. Excellent location and availability of free wifi. Will definitely be one of my choices when I come by again.
