When booking a small English hotel this is *exactly* what I was looking for. Little neighborhood pub on the ground floor (excellent food, BTW), quirky little hallway up the winding staircase to our room. Clean, super hot water, tea in room. I was extremely bummed to miss breakfast due to an early flight. Also easy walk from the train station!

A very quaint stay in Central London. Very near King’s Cross train station (convenient). Good pubs and food options and lots to see around there. Nice neighborhood. It’s a hotel above a really cool pub/venue. Breakfast was awesome! We recommend this spot and would stay again.

Great location- close to transportation and walkable to many attractions. Room was basic, but breakfast and staff were wonderful. One of my favorite pubs for dinner when we travel to London.

When visiting we expected th Harrison to be of excellent standard from the Hotel.com website, unfortunately we were disappointed after what we had spent. My main issues were that the bathroom smelled of waste all of the time, breakfast was good and good but not excellent

Lovely welcoming rooms above a pub. The staff were very helpful, even offering to take my bags upstairs for me. The room (3) was a good size with en-suite and desk. It’s a short walk from King’s Cross station. I would stay here again

The property was good as far as location goes to St Pancreas station. We found the shower facilities very small, it must also be noted that room access is via some very steep narrow stairs - there doesnt appear to be lift facilities. We sre not sure if we hit a particularly busy night at the pub but until the bar closed it was noisy.

What a gem! The pub had such a local flavor, bohemian. It was lively, with locals patronizing the pub. Sunday roast beef dinner was excellent. It was a hidden gem. We will recommend to others.

Okay for one night, but noisy
Sweet place to stay...not quiet (above a bar) and also no AC (so windows must stay open, contributing to the noise issue. Also, long staircase to get to first floor. Really nice greeting and easy check in though. Room was clean and served its purpose.

Nice place close to Kings Cross. Quiet street. Room above a pub so a little noisy until closing time but that’s part of the appeal. Don’t stay here if stairs are an issue for you.

I chose The Harrison because it seemed different than a standard run of the mill hotel and was reasonably close to Russel square where I needed to be. In terms of appearance and room quality facility it more than met expectations (wasn't too expensive either), as this was an older building where much effort has gone to convert it to modern standards. The pub downstairs was great, with excellent food and value and the breakfast was very nice indeed (for me a simple breakfast is all I wanted and there were plenty of choices). It was ready on time too per instructions. The check-in, which was late (after 11PM arrival from the airport) was helpful and though the room was upstairs, with steep staircase, they helped me with my luggage. I didn't mind otherwise the upstairs location as it was quiet and generally comfortable). The staff found an adapter for me the next morning which I needed too, so that worked out. For those looking for something a little different and a touch of the old local London unburdened by too many tourists this facility is great. The taxi they ordered for me was there on time and reasonably priced (20 pounds less than the trip from the airport!). It's also a nice walk to the Russel center area but takes a bit longer than specified (about 18 minutes to Russel square) but still, it's a pleasant residential area of central London to walk through. The main reason for 1 star less than I'd give, is the shower which remained too hot, no matter what I tried.

Basic accommodations with a good vibe.
Location was great for proximity to transportation and the pub is very friendly and a nice vibe. Room is bare bones but hey you are in London and the price is right. Breakfast is ready when you are. Note: if you want to go to bed before 23:00 and it is summer you will get noise from below. And because no air conditioning you have to keep windows open. Pub makes good food and it’s a good deal and fun.

Delightful Inn above a pub.
Loved our stay at the Harrison. It is not a 4-star hotel but it is without a doubt a comfortable, clean, friendly place to stay. We arrived after an overnight flight from California and the person who greeted us stopped what he was doing carried our bags up the stairs, and immediately when he found out we wouldn’t be able to make breakfast ensured that we had take away food for the morning. We booked a table for dinner, and loved the environment. While there may be a pub restaurant on the ground floor, the noise did not move upstairs. It is close to change is cross, and really easily able to get there for our morning training. I would without a doubt stay there again, and this time make sure I got the hot breakfast.

Very happy with the Harrison. The woman who checked me in was incredibly friendly and so helpful throughout the stay. I didn't realise breakfast was included and that was such a nice touch. My room including the bed and pillows was very comfortable, a good size, and quite quiet especially for this neighborhood. The shower pressure was a bit weak, but the water was warm. I would definitely stay here again.
