The group of drug users we had to walk past to get to hotel didnt fill us with confindence, the room was tiny and the bathroom was even smaller. The walls were so thin so heard everything in the hotel so it was very hard to actually sleep

Hotel was basic but clean. Unfortunately the power sockets in my room failed in the morning meaning no TV and no shower (pump I assume).

The location was convenient as it is close to Kings Cross and ST Pancras. It was a bit cold in the room on the first night and i told the front desk but nothing was done. I asked for extra blanket but it was not placed in the room. On the third night, the heater finally came on because i assume other guests had also mentioned it. Room was clean but dated. The shower faucet was really high and not movable so one had to remove it from the holder as the water would spray to the other wall.

Friendly hotel, be aware of bring your own

Very convenient hotel near St Pancras. It is located in a quiet street. Friendly staff at the reception all the time. Simple bedroom but it serves its purpose. Booked the breakfast, continental, again friendly staff bringing you freshly toasted bread. If you have specific requirements such as not cow milk or green tea bring your own as the choice is cafe or English tea. For the mobile, be aware to bring your own electric plug to reload. No hairdryer neither so bring your own. A towel to put on the floor near the shower would be good to prevent slipping. I was at the top floor without lift, so if you have a heavy bag or physical conditions, specify it at booking

One Night Stay at Elmwood Hotel in September.

The Elmwood is close to Kings Cross Station and 5 minutes from Euston too, which is convenient. The single bed room (No.3S) was ideal for my one night stay, with comfortable bed and en-suite bathroom & shower. It is on basement level. There a TV on the wall and Tea making facility. Even though a little renovation could tidy the bathroom (crack in sink and corrosion of tap) it was good value and the staff were helpful. Unfortunately, there was a bit of floor board thumping and squeaking this morning at 6am, as people walked on the floor above ! But despite that, I am going back again in November.
Comfortable single bed.
Shower, sink and toilet.
TV, desk & wardrobe, with window to the enclosed small yard.

Great place for Eurostar.

We stayed here for a night before catching the Eurostar it was a very short walk to st Pancaras to get the train also easily placed for the tube. We went to the west end to catch a show the night before. There was 3 of us and the room was small a double bed and a single however it was literally somewhere to catch a few hours sleep and for the price we paid for 3 people it was well worth it. I used the shower and it was perfectly adequate. If you want somewhere clean and close to the station and central London then this is perfect. All staff I spoke to were polite and informative. I will not hesitate to stay here again.
