This hotel is great value for money in a good location, close to Kings Cross, St Pancras & Euston stations. Staff were very warm and friendly. Room was very clean and warm (it was freezing outside!) Beds comfy and lovely soft pillows. Breakfast was great with plenty of choice. I can't believe what good value for money this hotel is... More

We stayed 4 nights in the Alhambra Hotel in a very small but spotless room. We did not get the en-suite but were impressed by how clean the shower and toilet was. The stairs give you a pretty good workout especially if you are staying on the third floor and carrying heavy backpacks, I think it would be worse with... More

We only stayed here one night. Excellent location when arriving with the Eurostar and going up north the next day! Less than 5 minute walk from St. Pancras, but just far enough from the main street to have a decent night sleep. The room was not big but big enough for us and the bed was very nice. The only...

We were well received by by welcoming and friendly staff. Our room was small and basic but very clean. Service was efficient at breakfast but lacked any explanation of what was available. More

We stayed in the sister hotel across the road. Excellent in every way. Right by St Pancreas station and Euston underground. Well equipped, small compact room. Well presented throughout and immaculately clean. Staff very efficient and friendly. Excellent breakfast with good choice. Would definitely return and recommend. More

Stayed 4 nights - very clean, good location and nice staff. Big downside was the bathroom, with tiny sink which couldn't be used for a wash. Shelf literally above sink also meant bashing head each time you leant forward. Room very small for two. I would stay for a night but not for longer as to cramped. More

stayed a single night and arrived late but handy for central London and Eurostar, rooms a bit cramped but that's the compromise for the price. Bit of a Queue at breakfast for the smallish eating area. Friendly reception and staff. More

This small hotel is very close to Kings Cross Station. The hotel is everything that small hotels should be, but very rare that they are. The Reception staff are friendly, the rooms are very clean and breakfast was served by a guy who actually enjoys serving the public. Other small hotels in London could learn from these people. More

I stayed in this hotel for 3 nights from 13 to 16 Jan 12. The first impression I got was the receptionist was very polite and helpful. I had no problem with locating this hotel because it was just a short 5mins walk from King's Cross St Pancras Underground and Train station. Exit to Euston Road from the station, look... More
