6/10 Good

Great location, but room for improvement.

Hotel is located in great neighborhood with convenient access to the underground, buses, etc. to tour London. AC was not working properly and the bathroom is very small, water splashes everywhere the fan does not help to get rid of humidity.

10/10 Exceptional

Exceeded my expectation!

Our stay at the Crowne Plaza hotel was delightful. After arriving early in London at St. Pancras station, we walked 15 minutes to the hotel. The reception staff were welcoming and informed us that our room was ready, even though it was only 9:30 am. This allowed us to settle into our room ahead of schedule. Everything exceeded our expectations - the room was immaculate, with the added bonus of complimentary hot chocolate, biscuits, and a jug of water. The toiletries provided were of superior quality. The hotel's location is excellent, with a convenient store nearby that stays open until 11 pm. For travelers from the US seeking a spacious hotel room with air conditioning and an elevator, this is the perfect choice. The entire staff we interacted with were fantastic. During check-out, they kindly offered to store our luggage until our evening train back to Paris. This allowed us to explore London further before departing in the evening.

Iqbal, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice new hotel a brisk walk from the train station. good breakfast and a clean room.
Henricus, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It’s kind of in “no man’s land” between King’s Cross and Farringdon, but a perfectly acceptable hotel nonetheless. Staff very helpful and service in bar and restaurants very prompt. We had requested a cot during the booking process, but this was not in the room at check-in and it took five requests over four hours before one was eventually provided (just in the nick of time!).
