A fantastic stay, everything from check in to check out was perfect. I had a windowless room and the best sleep ever, I didn't want to leave!

The California - Kings Cross St Pancras, London
Great for solo travelling and in a really ideal spot close to the tube station & the train station. Staff were kind and helpful! Many restaurants and stores within the area. Rooms were clean!! Hair blow dryer didn’t work… but whatever. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others!!

Four Points Flex by Sheraton London Euston
I would not recommend this hotel. The room was literally the size of the Queen mattress with an extra 16" along one side. There was no room for suit cases and no area for hanging clothes. In my opinion, this is no way to treat a paying customer - especially at this price.

This hotel has had a full 'make over' and is very smart. The bed and pillows are really comfortable.
