Provider-sourced guest reviews.
After reading the reviews I was worried! However it was not that bad. Room was a bit tired but clean and I only stayed 1 night so it was fine. Beds basic but clean. Bathroom definitely needed some maintenance with the floor tiles but again it was clean so I could put up with it for 1 night. All in all better than I expected
Bathroom floor needed some work
Proximity to rail stations
Noise especially after requesting quiet room. We were put in a front facing corner room on the main rd opposite a regular salsa event blaring music till 11.30pm. Poor state of repairs to bathroom cracked tiles, rotting timber in shower area and messy amateur siliconing to joins, faded curtains, layout of furniture preventing easy access to storage space. Drab and unloved feel to the whole room.
Friendly helpful staff
Room cold ? damp as underground
It was handy for the location. Clean and comfortable.
Very very basic, but that's what you pay for in that part of London.

Noise
Easy location, clean and luggage storage.
Strong cleaning smell and hot, was hard to get Aircon going and window open.
It is very close to rail, underground and Eurostar. Smooth check in and helpful cleaning staff.
We stayed in a second floor room. It was badly maintained; dirty carpets in the corridors, broken tiles in the bathroom with water leaking from underneath, loose skirting board in the room, holes in the plaster, water seeping from floor boards, so that we had to use towels.
Location to St Pancras
Having to pay a deposit which was not explained prior to booking. The bathroom door was not on the rail so did not close.

Facilities tired, aircon ineffective, toilet seat broken, room fan broken

Dam room, the smell and unable to shower due to the shower roof being too low

The Kings Cross Inn Hotel provided a warm and pleasant stay. The staff answered any questions that we had and will assist you 24 hours per day. The room has a refrigerator and was comfortable. The location is in the heart of London and directly across from the train station. The location also has many restaurants and sights to see.

Location to kings cross station and good shower in room
Room was small, Weird smell in room, Narrow corridors, Uncomfortable beds
Location is great the staff was really nice and kind , the all around building and rooms need a renovation, specially the shower and wc room . To say the least it’s amortized. But if someone is looking for a great location for normal money I will recommend.
The smell
Very convenient, super helpful staff and a great location for trains and tours...definitely worth the stay.
Not one compliment
Il est a cote de la gare metro facilité pour de déplacer
Lokacija i osoblje je bilo odlicno
Smrad iz kupaone, to sto nema crijeva za tus, podovi koji škripe
Very convenient to kings cross station. Very close to many pubs and restaurants. Staff very helpful and courteous.
Fabulous location directly opposite Kings Cross station. Rooms were dated, but clean and bigger than expected for London. They also let us leave our bags on checkout day so we could explore the sites.
Room at the front of the hotel noisy as on the main road.
Kings Cross Inn Hotel This is a very low-grade hotel (definitely not three star). The room was dilapidated with ugly, cheap MFI furniture, the bed was a creaking metal frame with a sagging, uncomfortable mattress, we couldn't have the window open because there was a noisy air-conditioning unit outside. The bathroom was outdated and scruffy and there was only a rain shower. The whole ambience was utterly charmless, cheap and uncomfortable. The only positive is the location near Kings Cross.
The location of the hotel to the train station was perfect. The room was basic but did exactly what we needed it for. The staff were friendly.
The communal areas and.the room were not particularly clean. The hallways needed a good hoover and the floor in the room was also not clean. When I booked the room it said breakfast was included and when we went down in the morning we were informed it was not.
* de ligging, recht tegen over st pancras intl * tegenover opstapplaats hop on hop off
* de bedden waren te smal
Didn't have breakfast.
Room was small.
The property is very close to train station . The room is clean and spacious for a single traveller . The staffs were very very friendly and helpful . Her helped me to carry my luggage and helped me with booking of Uber . Overall my experience was very good . The hotel very close to alot of shops and train statin
The only thing is i need to cliMb a few stairs to reach the lift but that too my staff helped me
Ideal location for Eurostar.
Street noise at night.
It was clean and comfortable . Great location,close to lots of attractions
The bed was small , A lot of construction noise
Location
Beds were uncomfortable and you could feel the springs. Dirty shower curtain, unpainted water marked wall, dirty splattered window with a dirty wall opposite as the view. Noise from outside (possibly trains/tubes) until early hours then started a couple of hours later. Noise from corridor and other rooms could be heard, sound of cases pulled across the floors from rooms above

Great location. Across from Kings Cross Station.
Room smelled of chemicals. Felt very grimey. Bathroom was functional. We stayed because of mass flight cancellations and there were no rooms available. Paid £320 for 1 night. Awful! Should have slept on the airport floor. Bed was small and hard.
I did not have breakfast. That is my fault Location across from Kings Cross Underground is perfect I was happy with the room Room 210 was grand
A new visible sign up on the wall above Ladbrokes as you come out of underground , when you do see that sign it does not indicate where the actual entrance is around the corner. Now I know where to go
La ubicación era buena pero tan buena que el ruido de la estación y calles no te deja descansar, se oye todo también de los demás huéspedes, está mal aislado, insonorizado y todo.
Olor a humedad, las tuberías ....la habitación no se podía ventilar por ventanas antiguas, el ruido es insoportable,no puedes descansar, el colchón es demasiado blando. Baño pequeñísimo. Hay mil alojamientos igual de económicos,no te hospedes en este....calle arriba hay mas. La luz del baño no se apagaba, lo comentamos pero no lo arreglaron.
La chambre est prêt de la gare Kings Cross
Le sol dans la chambre est en mauvais état. C'est assez bruyant, on entend les voisins du dessus. La salle de bain mérite un peu plus de lumière, alors que dans la chambre il y en a trop pour la taille. Comparé au prix de l'hôtel à Bordeaux, c'est la nuit et le jour

Hotel very clean and comfortable and the staff very friendly. Hotel in the ideal position to explore the city the underground just across the road. Would stay again 😊
Location was amazing . Beds were comfortable.
Very dated, the bathroom had mould.
The hotel was in a good location for a one night stay. I was able to see the British Library and British Museum before catching a train to Edinburgh the next day.
I was in a room on the ground floor close to the footpath. It was noisy from people and traffic. However, I was so tired from my long haul flights that I crashed.
Excellent location near all forms of transportation: train, bus, cab. Lots of restaurant options close by. We felt very safe walking in this area as well The staff were always very pleasant and helpful.
The up and down stairs. Little challenging with heavey luggage.
The proximity to St Pancras station and the size of the room.
The broken shower, the TV didnt turn off until it went into standby mode. The room was very outdated and items were either missing or broken.
Location by St Pancras
Run down seeming
Die Lage ist ausgezeichnet und das Gebäude hat charme
Es hätte sauberer sein können und insgesamt ist es in renovierungsbedürftigem Zustand.
Nice area . Staff and facilities
The bed is really uncomfortable and I can feel the spring on by back
Great location for St Pancras and plenty of restaurants close by.
It was not luxury but convenient, but I knew that no complaints
Location
Very, very noisy all night
Receptionist friendly and helpful. Carried baggage Near to St Pancras
Lift only stops between floors so always some steps. Room in basement. Dirty and old carpet. View not of city as promised but wall with pigeon droppings on floor.. Curtain to window and back locked door hanging off curtain rails. Wooden floor filthy. I dropped some water and wiped it. The cloth was covered in heavy dirt. TV didn't work, receptionist tried to mend but it turned of 10 minutes after he left. I want it working when I arrive. In any case no BBC channels as they don't have a licence, no channels like Sky or Netflix unless you have your own account. Bathroom more modern than room but no plug because some people don't know how to use it and one flooded ( surely it's because he left the tap running? Room really small with bed against one wall. Receptionist did his best, every time I passed he was dealing with another person's problem
L emplacement La taille de la chambre
Quasiment pas d’eau chaude dans la chambre. L’eau tiède arrivait au bout de plusieurs minutes, mais pas d eau chaude
The location was ok.
The window in my room was broken. The sheets were dirty. There was someone's hair in the bed. The floor was damp. The towels were dirty.
Location was great
The elevator/lift did not go to the 4th floor which I was on. I chose that hotel because they advertised an elevator/lift but did not specify that the elevator/lift didn’t go to the 4th floor it only went to the 3rd then I had to carry my luggage at that point. Not good!!
Location and decent sized room.
The bed! Sunk in the middle.
Close proximity to the train station
The location
The bed and sheets were dirty stained bedding and the mattress looks like it’s been on since the hotel opened
Excellent location for eurostar and close to undergrounds. Short walk from Euston.Very lovely staff on reception. Clean, comfortable rooms with coffee/tea making facility.
Steps and stairs not too good for elderly but something that cant be helped due to nature of the building
Only needed a room for the night and thats what i got. Comfy bed, refreshing shower and tv. Staff are very nice and accomodating.
Room was quite small so didnt have muchc room but again, dodnt spend much time in the hotel so wasnt an issue for us.
There was no breakfast included but overall experience was excellent. All rooms were clean and the most important thing is location. It's nearby St Pancras station. Buses are available. So many restaurants and cafes available around it for breakfast and lunch or dinner.
There don't have their own parking lot available but drop off on street available.
Friendly staff
Strong smell of stagnant water carpets dirty tiles in bathroom floor are dangerous broken and no grout so to water is damaging floors and woodwork. The smell is awful and worse in the morning in bathroom area.
Room very well equipped , clean, staff friendly, excellent location , although the building is old they have gone to great lengths to optimise it. I got the room at a very good price as it was short notice.
Location, shower & bathroom space
Sadly stairs which were unexpected. Beds a little bouncy, room quite small

The Lower ground floor you can hear the tube and trains passing underground. Slight damp smell in the lobby

Great location for Kings Cross station Clean
It's not a dislike, but the room size isn't great. Only there to sleep so not a concern.
