Good stay next to St. Pancras, Kings Crossing
The staff was so helpful and kind. We were exhausted after our long flight and they helped us get baggage downstairs, reserved dinner seats for us, and were over all just great. The accommodations are pretty basic but clean and well located if you need to leave from St. Pancras-literally up two buildings and across the road.

Great location, lovely staff, comfortable rooms.
Perfect location, lovely room. Was offered a ground floor room or a third floor room and opted for the third floor to try a minimise any underground/street noise which was perfect! I was travelling alone with my 6 year old daughter and felt welcome and safe throughout our visit. She thought the reception desk was really cool!
Amy, 1-night trip

Perfect for Kings X
nicely laid out reception. Spacious room with comfortable bed. Excellent location for Kings X access. Would use again without hesitation.Stayed at several Kings X area hotels and this is one of the better ones.

A good night's rest
I stayed in room 101 in the basement. It was comfy and reaonably sized, although the bathroom was cold and ceiling height was low (not for the tall guests!). Other than the noise of the underground trains passing by, I had a good night's rest here.

Why I liked the California
The hotel was right by the tube and Kings Cross station. There’s an amazing Indian restaurant nearby and a corner store. We were warmly greeted and given first floor accommodations. Location is awesome!

Ok for a short stay
Brilliant location. Clean but very noisy I am deaf and I found the noise of the nearby tubes very loud. They run until midnight which was unfortunate as I had an early train he next day

Fab place. Great staff and value for money. Will definitely stay again
Susan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

OK stay
Friendly staff when checking in. Our room was tiny and the bed wasn’t the most comfortable. No hand towel so we had to use our bath towel to dry our hands. The flooring was lifting in places and the whole place felt tired and in need of a spruce up. Great location for the station and lots of restaurants and bars in the area. Could hear the trains but didn’t mind that.
Caroline, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Room was spacious and clean, great location for easy access to King’s Cross and St Pancras
Conor, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

OK stay… but worn down
Overall ok stay, nothing fundamentally wrong. Was however a disappointment. Mainly because the pics of the hotel makes it look like a cute, cozy little boutique hotel… and it reality it was very worn down, and in an area that seemed a little dodgy.

Mark, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Missed the mark, lack of info before arriving
This could be a really cute boutique hotel but completely missed the mark. The front desk decor made the hotel super quaint to enter, but that’s where it stopped. Rooms were very small with many missing amenities and quite a few deficiencies, from door stops to sink drains and proper ventilation. This hotel was also the most expensive on our trip and failed to mention the built in alarm clock that was a construction site next door. We were woken up every morning at 8am as soon as the hammering of scaffolding began. In these old buildings we know the size is usually going to be lacking, but didn’t expect the experience to be just as small.
