Trendy and friendly hotel in a cool parr of London
Highly recommend this hotel. The location is very convenient if you are planning getting on a train ride to another city. The nearby development at Coal drops yard is transforming this part of London into a very hip place to be. The staff were super friendly and helpful. There was a great mini bar in the rooms and the bed was very comfortable. I had a fantastic view of St Pancras from my window. The restaurant and bar on the 10th floor were super cool with great food and vibes. My only issue was I didn’t particularly like the primary coloured interior decor of my room, but everything else more than compensated for that. All in all, it was good value for a london hotel of this quality.
