2/10 Poor

Don't stay at room 7!
When I arrived I had been "upgraded" to a better room. The catch is that this room was a lower floor room (below ground floor) and it was facing the street with a storage just in front of it. There were men (not form the hotel) loading vans at 3am on that storage. The room had single glass windows that are old, without any isolation for cold or noise. IKt was like if people were inside my room at 3am, walking over metal stairs and carrying heavy things form teh storage.

Lovely stay at the Gyle
The Gyle was a perfect location, steps away from King’s Cross and Euston stations. I stayed on the 3rd level. Quite steep steps to carry up luggage. The room itself was very small, though OK for me as I was traveling solo. The compact space was used well. Keep in mind this hotel is located in a townhouse so the walls can be quite thin. Enjoyed the breakfast included. Enjoyed that the bar was open 24 hours! Staff was pleasant. Would stay again the next time I’m in London.

8/10 Very good

Lovely if you don’t mind a few inconveniences
Reception staff very friendly and polite. Room was lovely and clean. The vaulted bathroom room was very nice however the issue was that the rooms were downstairs in the basement more specifically underneath the entrance of the hotel and therefore lots of noise, people coming in and out of the hotel and people talking etc. These rooms should not be so highly priced due to this inconvenience, although I did see a pair of earbud I don’t think this is a sufficient compensation for such disturbances. No phone in the room so you have to go to reception if you have any issues, the bathroom lacked hooks or towel rails to hang used towels and robes, there was no bin in the room only in the bathroom which is inconvenient. Overall this was a nice hotel and the vaulted bathroom was nice but a little cold. One more thing the TV has screen mirror option but I was not able to utilise this as it didn’t appear to be working.

The Gyle
We selected this property because of its proximity to the St Pancras rail station and the location was great. Friendly helpful staff and the room and other facilities were very clean! Please note that this hotel has NO lift/elevator and, if you have heavy or oversized luggage, it will be a REAL challenge to get your stuff up the narrow wooden steps! One other challenge is figuring out the light/power switches. The master switch was on the wall next to the door and we could never get the all the lights to go out without shutting off the master switch. The hotel employee was unable to explain how the system works.

Impeccable attention to detail !
We booked a night after we traveled into St PANCRAS from Paris. We wanted a close location and we found so much more. The attention to detail from rooms to restaurant was impeccable. Wished we stayed longer. They have other properties and next time we will try another !

Excellent Style, Service and Location
Really excellent location and beautifully clean and well designed hotel. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Lovely design details and cool relaxing bar area. Room was perfect and bed super comfortable. Third floor location of our room meant a few flights of stairs but worth the effort.

Lovely hotel for using the Eurostar, very conveniently located. You can hear people moving around in their rooms but it’s a townhouse so is to be expected.

2/10 Poor

It’s a typical central London hotel, completely overpriced and matchbox-sized, but I’m fine with all that, I knew it when I booked. What really pissed me off was that breakfast was NOT included, even though I specifically chose this hotel over others, because the listing said that breakfast was included. And here comes the absurdity - get this: when asked, we were told that breakfast is included for ONE person in the room only. Not both. For both people staying in the room (a “King” room, by the way, with two people included in the booking) to have breakfast, the second person would have to pay £15. What a great way to scam a few more quid out of your guests. Just absurd.

Nice hotel with a fun vibe. Unfortunately drain in shower was clogged so flooding when you shower. I mentioned it to receptionist and she said “ oh sorry “. Seems like a partial refund would make sense since it created a mess for us.
