Impressions
The King's Cross Hotel is a haven for leisure travelers looking to dive into the heart of London. What I particularly liked about this hotel was the provision of free Wi-Fi in all rooms. In a day and age where staying connected at all times is not just a convenience, but a necessity, this feature really stood out to me. It meant that I could stay connected with family and friends at all times or catch up on work if need be. The flat-screen TV in the room was also a great addition, providing entertainment when I wanted to unwind after a long day of sightseeing.
The provision of luggage storage was also a significant plus for me. I didn't have to worry about finding a place to leave my bags before check-in, which is usually a common problem in most hotels. The 24-hour reception and security gave me peace of mind in the knowledge that there was always someone available to assist with any queries or concerns that I may have had. The hotel's no pets or smoking policy also ensured that the environment was clean, fresh and welcoming. Overall, the King's Cross Hotel provided all the amenities, security and features I could want in a hotel, making it an excellent choice for leisure travel in London.
