The hotel was clean and nice. We reserved a room that would accommodate three adults. The room was small (which was ok). The room was quite full of beds. Again this was ok but the potential lodger should be aware. The hotel is conveniently located near the Kings Cross underground and train stations.

We were a couple of friends going to a festival over the weekend and having to catch an early coach from Kings Cross. HW was the perfect location, 5 mins walk to catch the coach. Beds comfy, tea and coffee in room (not that we had time for that) and friendly welcoming staff. Dropping our bags off to catch the 8am coach was no problem at all. Great location for Kings Cross/St Pancreas.

Liked: Amenities
The hotel was excellent in terms of location close to Kings Cross and St. Pancras and the availability of dining options in the neighborhood. It was perfect for an overnight stay before getting an early morning train the next day to Paris. My only fault would be that my room was quite noisy at times. Being a solo traveler my room was in the basement( not uncommon in London hotels) and during the afternoon, after I had been traveling and wanted to take a nap, I was constantly awakened by doors slamming and staff talking in the corridor. Late in the evening I was kept awake by loud conversations maybe in other rooms or in a nearby building.

We were there over the weekend for the Oasis concert in a three bed room - everything was great for our stay. Restaurants and stores as well as public transport - all around the corner. One of the best budget hotels we have stayed at.

We liked the desk staff, who were friendly, relaxed and helpful. The room was quite small, clean, tidy and all we needed for our overnight (we only used it to shower and sleep). TV worked, there was a kettle/coffee/tea, a safe and a fan, as it was hot when we visited. Bed was clean and very comfy. We were able to drop off bags before check-in and after check-out, which was invaluable. We liked the location and enjoyed the small park opposite - basketball players were impressive.

Small but perfectly formed..................

One night stay to catch early morning Eurostar. Sinle rooms are in the basement, down 2 flights of stairs but the single room is an example of containing everything well designed in a small space - and there's even a window into a light well. Finishes in the room are immaculate, even the bathroom, considering what the designers had to fit into a small space. Only criticism was the noise from the guests on the upper floors who seemed to be having an impromptu concert party in the wee small hours, but I suppose, that's London for you
