Location

Stayed in March 2024

Our room was in the Mews. (A room with views of the courtyard was the description on line). Accessed by walking through the building then out the back of the hotel onto a covered walkway.. The design of this metal walkway (and steps outside to the lower level) created quite a lot of noise when guests pulled their suitcase along it late at night and early in the mornings. This noise then travelled and disrupted our sleep, as could easily be heard and was undoubtedly amplified by the narrow outside corridor. Not much that the hotel could do about this of course other than maybe gently requesting guests to pick up their suitcases after midnight and before 6am. I would probably stay again at the hotel but would bring earplugs.

Excellent location for access to St Pancras and Kings Cross Stn and therefore all of the london transport system Clean and bright decor, smelled fresh too. Courteous and helpful staff. Nice breakfast room though didn’t eat breakfast there so also did t get the opportunity to dine in the Great Hall which is in a nearby building. A good size twin room for the price. Lovely bathroom and great shower, very comfortable beds with a generous amount of pillows.

For some reason the shower was too hot, however I am sure that will be fixed.

The location, amenities and the staff, good breakfast.

TBH - I wasn't expecting the room we got. We had to exit the old building via a metal staircase to the rear and were in outdoor rooms ( the room door actually opened to outside) The rooms were very modern, and were squeezed into the rear space of the building. I had booked the hotel specifically because I thought it would have old school charm. This was a special treat for my daughter and we both felt that whilst the room was OK (tiny shower room/toilet) it missed the reason we had picked that hotel which was to have a classical style room. Lots of photo's on the website show colourful rooms with lovely decor- ours was just a bit 'beige' and we could have been staying in a Travelodge! First appearances were that the 'lobby' (entrance hallway) if you can call it that was a little scruffy and under loved. We were underwhelmed by the hotel. Its location and the fantastic breakfast across the road in the college mitigated some of our disappointment.

Great location- easy walk to Russel Square tube. The staff were helpful. Breakfast in the Great hall of Goodenough college was a highlight of the stay - very good value and plentiful. The room was clean and the beds were comfy.

Only criticism is the room was near the entrance on the ground floor (302) and could hear foot traffic of other guests but nothing the hotel can do to stop this

Modern and clean with everything we needed for the stay

Room was quite small

There was clearly a family in the room above and the children were up before 6am, running around so that woke us up (the building originally would have been houses not built with sound proofing/hotel in mind!) it was a shame as the bed was comfy and was looking forward to a lie in after a late night. If people are in the courtyard/outdoor stairway talking the conversation travels/is amplified so also woke us up.

The room was so lovely, it was clean, spacious, comfy and stylish, beautiful high ceilings. The location was perfect, 10 minute walk from the station but not noisy with traffic as a peaceful square a few streets off the main road.

A bit further from the tube than I'd like and with no elevator access to my floor

Grand entrance, well designed and furnished room. Clearly newly refurbished.

Not environmentally friendly -Radiators on in all the communal areas with a 20’C outside temperature, windows open to compensate. Lights in the hallways didn’t seem to be on effective timers so on all night. Left over food chucked in the bin after breakfast. TVs on in communal areas. Just so much wasted energy…

Unique hotel, beautiful Grade 2 listed buildings, wonderfully quiet, spacious family room, fun to be connected to the College dining room, loved the cool floral fabrics and colours in the rooms.

There isn't anything, really. Maybe it's a bit unpleasant in the yard buildings and that area is lacking direction as to where the rooms are. Would be nice to do a paint job, add some lights and more directions on how to find the rooms.

I had quite low expectations for some reason. But the hotel exceeded them easily. My room was located in the back of the building and was a bit unusual, but actually only at first. The staff was very helpful and friendly, the room was comfortable, and quiet as per request.

Stayed in March 2024

There is no lift to the upper floors only steps. You will need to carry up your suitcases or ask for help from the reception to do this.

Nice cozy room. We had a room with a view on the park. The hotel is located in a quiet aria 10min walk to the underground. The hotel as separate entrances to the different rooms as it was build in different historic houses.

Room was separate from the main building & there were lots of stairs to get to it.

Loved the location & the staff were friendly & helpful.

Housekeeping had forgotten to put the miniature complimentary soap, shower gel or shampoo in our room. After a call to reception this was swiftly corrected.

A great surprise! I had never heard of the hotel before! The rooms were beautiful, the bed comfortable and the finishing touches were truly considered. The room was spotless. The gentleman at Reception was welcoming and helpful.

If you have mobility problems this isn’t for you, there’s lots of stairs.

It felt like home away from home. We had a suite and I loved watching the birds and squirrels from the large windows in the morning.

Quite a climb up 3 flights of steep stairs! And the lights didn’t always come on!!

Great breakfast!

Stayed in March 2024

My main complaint was that the single bed in the room was very springy and not comfortable - I would recommend replacing it. The linens on the bed were clean but not particularly new and crisp - I moved to a different (more expensive) room the second night and the bed comfort and linens were noticeably improved. There is no elevator in this hotel, which doesn't bother me, but guests should be aware.

A cozy and well-decorated and smartly-designed single room overlooking a park - excellent value for central London near king's cross. Quiet. Extremely clean. Near Lamb's Conduit street with lovely little shops and bistros.

It is unclear what kind of lounge or common areas are offered within the hotel - the office itself is very small and not a place to relax while waiting for one's room, etc. The staff were sometimes very warm, sometimes quite brusque.

This was a very nice room with very high ceilings and a very comfortable bed - beautiful redecoration in dark blue with a huge blackout curtain in a floral pattern. A small, clean ensuite. The room overlooked the road, but I slept with earplugs and it was fine.

For the price, it was a little bit expensive. However, I do really enjoy staying in this neighborhood.

This was a comfortable, well-appointed room in a nice location. There was a kettle with fully-stocked tea and coffee selection as well as some biscuits. The neighborhood was quiet and, although I did hear some of the other hotel guests, it was fairly quiet.
