The Alhambra Hotel is a five minute walk from King's Cross station so a fantastic position. It's run by a family and they cook a great breakfast for their guests and serve it in the pleasant breakfast room. They have another hotel across the road, but all guests have breakfast in the Alhambra. Sorry, there's no lift. However, the small... more

I am a travel consultant that details that sends people all over Europe. This property was highly recommened through not only trip advisor but through the visit britain center. They are HORRIBLE to deal with. They only take VI or MC and will charge you 3% on top of that, they will not except a direct bank transfers - and... more

£60 B+B is a fair price for what you get at the Alhambra. I stayed in a small single room with sink and shower in the annexe across the way. The room was rather basic and very small, even for a single. I had to use the toilet down one flight of stairs which was the tinest one I have... more

Good value for money hotel, clean and quiet, delicious full English breakfast. I was 6 months pregnant and they gave us a room on the ground floor which was very convenient. What we appreciate about the hotel was the tv in room, free wifi and free storage of luggage after check-out. more

Stayed there for 3 nights. A block away from the tube and 2 away from the International train station.. great location! The room was a little bit small. The breakfast and service were great. Free Wi Fi.. which was difficult to find in other hotels in London. more

Stayed here for 3 nights from October 20th to 23rd 2009 to start off our honeymoon. Arrived at Heathrow, took the Piccadilly line and got off at King's Cross. Asked a few people to point us in the right direction and found the hotel. Had booked via email a double ensuite, and that's what we got. We were in the... more

English breakfast is nice... more

This hotel was reasonably priced and the included breakfast was very good. The biggest plus of this hotel was its location - about a 3 minute walk from King's Cross - St. Pancras station. Because this is such a major transportation hub, you can get to pretty much anywhere in London with a minimum of changing trains. Our room was... more

This is a good value hotel. It is more of a B&B than a hotel. There are very friendly, helpful folks at the check-in desk. They got us reasonably-priced taxis whenever we needed them and were very helpful. When you check in, they give you two keys, one for the front door and one for the room. The corridors are... more
