We asked to be put on a lower floor but on arrival we were on the top floor. 58 steps up. Hotel was full so we couldn’t be moved. The twin room was small. Staff were excellent and couldn’t be faulted.

This is a decent standard hotel for London. The room was a good size for two people and we looked out onto the garden area across the road which was lovely. We were on third floor, no lift which is not unusual for London, but be prepared for the stairs! The area overall is very central, close to many food options and two tube stations. Hotel breakfast basic but good and priced well. Everything clean, bed firm but fine. Water pressure at times a bit dodgy. Overall good for price and location.

Monday Night Stay

If you are a light sleeper this is not the place for you. It’s a very loud area, people were outside until after midnight yelling, talking loudly and reviving up motorcycles. The AC was a fan so it was hot, opening the window made it even louder but the beds were comfortable and everything was clean. You get 1 towel and zero extras so hold onto that one, there is 1 plug between the bed so bring 2 converters if staying here.

Great location, great people

Yes, the room was small and the bathroom tiny. But they seemed to be newly redone, and extremely clean. (No A-C, but the open window worked fine because it was not too hot.) The people could not have been friendlier or more helpful. Finally, for those who believe in location, location, location, The George is in a great spot, close to transportation and major sites like the British Museum, with a bunch of good nearby restaurants and bars, and with the pleasant little park/garden across the street.

This was our first time in London, so I can’t compare it to other hotels. However, it’s not your typical hotel room experience. It feels more like an apartment building, so keep that in mind when booking. I did feel that it was overpriced, but hey, that’s London—everything is overpriced there. The room lacked air conditioning, which was a downside, especially during the extremely hot couple of days we stayed. We had sticky, sweaty nights, but I’ve learned my lesson: if traveling on hot summer nights, look for hotels with air conditioning. On the bright side, the location was great. There were plenty of pubs, restaurants, and shops within walking distance of Kings Cross.

Amazing breakfast! And the staff was so friendly, kind, and very welcoming. The bathroom lacks some of the toiletries we were expecting—they only provided body wash in the shower and a tiny soap on the sink top. However, the amazing English breakfast more than made up for the lack of amenities. The location could not be beat as well, with lots of dining options and proximity to St. Pancras station. Highly recommend!
