Swinton Hotel  

Hotel staff kindly helped us with all our problems.

The wifi wasn't working in our room, I had to go to the reception all the time. There were problems with tv as well.

bedrooms and bathroom all very clean breakfast excellent location very good within walking distance from major rail and underground stations all told good value for money .we would use the hotel again

This is a big thumbs-up for the staff at Swinton - I'd actually checked out that morning, but they were kind enough to let me use a room after I finished the London marathon, so I could have a shower and recover. The room was small but had everything I needed. Super-clean, lovely shower, good tv. The traffic is noisy but this is central London! And the secondary glazing meant I got a good night's sleep anyway. For this price, the hotel cannot be faulted. Fantastic!

Very near to the train station of St. Pancras and wifi connection was very fast and reliable.

The bathroom is too small to people taller than 1,80m.

Was expecting a full English Breakfast

The Swinton is relatively cheap and usefully located near Kings Cross and Euston. The rooms are reasonably clean and comfortable. Coffee and tea making facilities are generous compared with more expensive London hotels. A problem with a tap in my bathroom was fixed promptly and I had a good, quiet night's sleep there.

Staff could have been a bit friendlier on arrival. Although fairly comfortable, the rooms looked a bit tatty and could have done with a lick of paint in places.

It was close to St. Pancras International and slightly cheaper than the bigger chains nearby.

access with a buggy was difficult. When our daughter was ill in the night, the staff were unconcerned and unable to provide any help I.e. Clean towels or sheets, washing facilities. The continental breakfast was continental, but the bread/ croissant options were stale. Building work was ongoing throughout our stay, and while the builders were extremely helpful in lifting the buggy up and down stairs, the noise was extremely intrusive til quite late in the afternoon and early in the morning. Access to our basement family room was nigh on impossible while carrying bags/ chilidren, not helped by the lack of a lift.

there were no "real" shower in the room

Within 5 min walk of Kings Cross station. Rooms compact/comfortable/tidy. Shower room compact/usable.

Go down early if you want the breakfast, does get busy. Cases on departure day can be left but only after 10am or left in room for the staff to move. Swinton road is busy all night as probably most street in London are, take ear plugs.

Is within easy walking distance of Kings Cross Station.

The room was in poor condition, with marks on the carpet, lamps pushed down the sides of draws. Signs were hanging upside down, and the bed was pretty uncomfy with only a thin single pillow each. The brekfast is poor with little space to move in the area. Little personal touches were made to make you feel more welcome, It is pretty much a hotel owned by foreign people, for foreign people on weekend breaks, or that is how we were made to feel

price and location where just what we were looking for. beds comfy enough. bathroom fine. staff friendly and helpful.

room was very noisy overlooking Swinton Road even with windows shut

Clean, good, comfort
