It was quiet even in the hustle and bustle of Kings Cross station. The room was so cramped I barely had space to move around. I didn't sleep too well because it was hot. I reported this but did not get a satisfactory answer from reception.

The hotel is very convenient if you are catching a train early in the morning at Kings Cross or St Pancras. The double room and bathroom were clean. The room is on a small side for 2 people and 2 adults but manageable for one night. The bathroom is very narrow and small. The are plenty of restaurants/cafés in the area.

Hotel was fine for what we needed on a short break to London. Twin room was ideal, comfy beds and pillows. Tea and coffee facilities in the room. Room was on the small side but not an issue for us. Corridors were tight, we were on the basement level, very tight stairs and corridors, not an issue for us but possibly for those with mobility issues.

We left this property the day after checking in for a 5 day stay. Though the area was great, close to Kings Cross Station which made it very easy for sightseeing, we couldn’t bear to stay for the 5 days. The rooms are so pokey that it was unbearable. The walk up 3 flights of the extremely narrow staircase, dragging our 20 kg suitcases nearly killed us. I was terrified that either my sister or I would slip and fall the steps themselves were so short. Then there was the room! It was cool outside but the room was horribly stuffy. The window took 2 of us to open and then needed the thoughtfully provided block of wood to jam in to stop it from sliding down! It did nothing to cool the room. The beds were appalling though clean. The bathroom was very tiny. The sink was one that I’m sure had come from a dental surgery it was so small though a bigger one would not have fit! No shelves or any capacity to put anything, hang a towel or even get changed. The curtains so old they were rotting. The lady on reception was kind but the man barely looked at us. If you’re planning a stay for more than a day in London, find somewhere else.

I have stayed at many hotels in this area and this is the only one where no help was offered with luggage. I was directed to the least amenable staircase for large luggage and so just let my case slide down the stairs. I Found the better staircase for myself. The room was tiny. There was no space to open my suitcase except on the bed: hardly convenient. Receptionist only smiled at our second encounter, in response to something I said on my way out for food

Nice staff but the room was quite small with no frills at all. Location was great for St Pancras station and plenty places to eat around there.

Disappointed with size of room

Room (no. 313) was a lot smaller than imagined. Only a few inches at one side of the bed so could not walk down. Limited room at other side and bottom. Very little other floor space. Shower room tiny. Only one step between toilet and shower cubicle. Room very hot, had to use fan which, thankfully, was provided.Decoration dreary throughout hotel. Narrow corridors and staircases. Having said all that it was very clean, including bed linen and towels. Bed comfortable. Only stayed one night and arrived late in evening. Would not consider this place for multiple nights.

Tiny bathroom sink, need more hooks, shelving in bathroom to hang up wet towels. We stayed 3 nights and were happy to use same bed linens and towels, but not an option, even after talking to the front desk.

I had a great stay at Wardonia Hotel. My room was modern and was cleaned with towels replaced every day. Staff were polite and professional. The location is excellent - down the street from King’s Cross and the tube station. I would stay here again!

Our room flooded during intense rain, with bed being completely wet, even under the blankets. Staff could have cooperated more in this situation, as they said there was nothing they could do. It took us some time to persuade them to give us another room.

Good location, clean, minimalist accomodations

Overall I'm very satisfied Stayed in a single room on a vacation. Though very small, the room is well maintained, clean and fresh towels were provided daily. This is a no frills accomodation - but for the price - it's very nice Proximity to train stations is super important.
