Central Hotel

Friendly staff, good position but...

Liked: Good position especially if you are catching a train, staff perfect and friendly, ready to accommodate any needs you might have
Disliked: Very old and the bed and pillows need to be modernized

Great short-stay accommodation

Liked: It was clean, comfortable and very well located.
Disliked: Fan didn't work very well.

Very good

Great location, but not so...

Liked: The property is located in the best spot ever, 2 blocks away from kings cross. Connects with every tube and trains. The staff is great, everyone is helpful and nice! Beds are comfortable and shower is tiny but hot
Disliked: Rooms are too small, and in bad shape. Bathroom is literaly 2x1mts and not nice, but shower is hot. Mine also had a weird smell

Clean, comfy room, 2 minutes...

Liked: Nice hotel, no frills, basic but clean, functional and comfortable; very kind, friendly staff and you can’t beat the location, it’s literally 2 minutes from Kings Cross and St Pancras stations. The bed was comfy, the shower had good pressure and lots of hot water, the WiFi was fast enough for remote working. The street was quiet despite the proximity to a main road, and I felt safe walking back at night. It was perfect for me as I arrived by train in King’s Cross with heavy luggage and I just crossed the street to reach the hotel. I stayed 2 nights, then I crossed the street again to catch the train to Gatwick airport. I walked to Covent Garden in only 25 minutes but there are plenty of buses and the tube just around the corner. You’re in the heart of the city, with many places to eat, the British library etc.
Disliked: These are just a few things to note. They weren’t a big issue for me but they might be for others. The room I was in was very small, I had to put the suitcase on the bed to be able to open it; there is no lift but the staff members are kind enough to help you with the luggage. The bathroom was also very small, I could see how a large built person could seriously struggle to use the shower and even the toilet.

Pleasant

Check you are getting the...

Liked: Convenient to Kings Cross.
Disliked: Paid extra but did not get the room that was advertised. The receptionist advised that I could wait for the manager, but after an 18 hour flight all I wanted to do was go to sleep. Room given was adequate enough but not what I paid for.

Superb

Disappointing

Liked: Location is great. Easy access so Kings Cross and St. Pancrass station.
Disliked: Very small room and no toiletries provided.
