The hotel is conveniently located right opposite King's Cross Station and close to St Pancras International Train Station. The rooms are mostly with a double bed but have bad decoration; however, they offer a pleasant garden view. Service is okay, but there is no specific comment. The included dining features Uonuma-grown rice. The facilities are average.

The hotel is ideally situated in a quiet pleasant square, making it easy to explore London using the underground. It's also conveniently close to quite a few restaurants, which is great if you're short on time. Although near a train station, it's in a nice area. The rooms, while mostly with a double bed and somewhat lacking in terms of decoration, offer a pleasant garden view. The service was top-notch, and I truly felt well taken care of during my stay. The dining experience, included with the rate, was satisfying with tasty side dishes. On the downside, some facilities could use a little upgrade, but overall a positive experience.

The hotel is located in a quiet square, close to St Pancras International Train station in the center of London.

I couldn't have asked for a better stay! The hotel is situated in a lovely, quiet square and is a stone's throw away from St Pancras International train station. It's so easy to navigate around London from here, thanks to the convenient location near main transport links. The proximity to the station is a major plus point, making my travels hassle-free. The rooms have a beautiful garden view, though the decoration could use some improvement. The dining experience, with complimentary bread, was delightful. The facilities were top-notch, offering everything needed for a pleasant stay. The only downside was not having included Wi-Fi, which was an extra cost.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. Although the rooms offered a nice garden view, the decoration was a bit outdated. Most rooms had a double bed, which was comfortable. The service was excellent, very attentive and polite. The location was in a quiet pleasant square, which was relaxing, but it was quite far from the main attractions of London. The dining was included in the rate, and I enjoyed the Sicilian pastries. The facilities were basic but functional.
