Kings Cross St. Pancras Hotels

King’s Cross is an area on the northern edge of central London, about two miles north of Charing Cross. While the area had a reputation as something of a red-light district in the past, little evidence of that now remains, and it is currently a busy transport hub. Along with the British Library, King’s Cross station is the most notable feature of the area, and is usually very busy, servicing Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire. The huge adjoining St. Pancras Station is the terminus for Eurostar in London, sending high speed trains to France and Kent, and is celebrated for its Victorian and modern architecture.

There are a great number of King’s Cross hotels, and a lot of them are low-quality budget options, but there’s still room for luxury if that’s what you’re looking for. The best of the lot is probably the four star Megaro Hotel, just 100m away from the station. Finished in beautiful wood and glass, and riddled with little unexpected bonuses like rainbow showers and balconies, the Megaro’s rooms are a delight. The restaurant, serving a fusion of English and Italian, is also very fine. The customer satisfaction rating of 9/10 is extremely rare.

Considerably less pricey is the recently refurbished two star Crestfield Hotel, which is situated in an attractive London townhouse, includes a tasty breakfast and also boasts an unusually high customer satisfaction rating. Also well thought of is the King’s Cross Premier Inn, which offers spacious, affordable accommodation in a modern block, with an airy restaurant and a lively pub attached.

Kings Cross hotels are exceptionally well-served by transport links. As well as buses, and the National Rail services of King’s Cross and St. Pancras, the KXSP tube station is one of London’s busiest, and provides links to all over London. On the Circle Line, Hammersmith & City Line and the Metropolitan Line, the station sits between Euston Square and Farringdon. It is also on the Northern Line between Euston and Angel, the Piccadilly Line between Russell Square and Caledonian Road, and the Victoria Line between Euston and Highbury & Islington.
