Crowne Plaza London Kings Cross by IHG

Breakfast was good, facilities and room was clean, staff was great. Gym was also good, although somehow small (can host 3-4 person).

Great location within walking distance to Kings cross station and also Russel square tube station on the Piccadilly line. Breakfast was good with a great selection and always replenished. Even when it was very busy it was well controlled and not difficult to get a seat. Rooms have proper AC which made a huge difference especially with it being warm and humid outside during our stay. Rooms are a good size and very clean.

The location of the hotel is very good, 15 minutes away walk from British Museum and close to transport hubs, allowing you to plan your tourist day very easy. The breakfast was excellent, rich choice and very diverse, and all the food was precisely prepared. The staff was very friendly and helping. We needed a towel and received it within 5 minutes after the request at the reception. The room was a little bit small for 2 adults and 2 kids, but in fact, the pictures are not misleading. If you had forgotten you AC adapter for UK, don't worry, Crowne Plaza Rooms are friendly to foreign tourists - there are 2 x USBs at the desk, allowing you easily to charge your smartphone or any other electronic device, just by using the USB cable. And another good thing to mention is there are a lot of electricity outlets in the room, in case you have more devices that need power supply (but UK adapter may be needed). It seems like a lot of hotels ignore the growing need for more AC outlets, but Crowne Plaza is not one of them. The bathroom was clean and tidy.

The rooms were excellent - plenty of room for 2 lady friends travelling internationally. The front desk staff were extremely easy to deal with and very helpful. All of our requests were heard and acted upon. The beds were extremely comfortable and a queen size bed each was a real treat. The bathroom had a bath as well as a shower over the bath on our second stay. The air-conditioning worked well. This hotel is position plus for getting around London. The number 65 bus stops near the front of the hotel and is an easy and cheap ride to and from Kings Cross Station. There is a good shopping strip nearby with some excellent restaurants. We left most of our luggage at the hotel while we had a quick visit to Paris and this service was much appreciated. The breakfasts were generous with plenty of choice and the staff in the restaurant were excellent. Overall, I would book this hotel again and have recommended it to friends.

Our room was very comfortable and spacious enough for a couple. Bathroom was well laid out and the shower was good. Beds were comfortable and the other facilities were good. Breakfast was very good with plenty of choice.
