Close to Kings Cross. Staff were helpful and pleasant. The room was small but very clean. It was great for one night but would not be great for a long stay as there was very little storage for clothes- no hangers , plus the mirrors were too high to look into so it was impossible for shaving, makeup, hair etc.

Good location.

Good location. Check in quick and easy and allowed us to check in early as rooms ready when we dropped bags off. Rooms small but ok as only slept in room. Our only issues were heating on all night which we couldn’t control so very warm and window wouldn’t open properly. Water pressure in shower also poor. Ok for our one night stay.

What a warm welcome from Front of House! My bag was whisked to my first-floor room with a wonderful view of the garden square. Everything was spotlessly clean, the room has some quirky rather engrossing art, the shower was good and strong ... can recommend the Melville for anyone who fancies a night or three in a really good part of town.

Luxury lodge.

Lovely host who went out of his way to get us into our room early. The luxury chalet was ok for one night however the outside light shone through the window all night which caused a disturbance. The bathroom is very tired and requires some maintenance leading to a damp smell and uneven floor. We also noticed ants within the room.

Lovely hotel. Stayed here 1 night after returning from Disneyland. Hotel is across the road from St Pancreas Station. I was exhausted when we arrived back around 10pm. Room was beautiful, lovely comfy bed and hot shower was very much appreciated. Fridge, microwave and coffee machine plus kettle was an added bonus. Would highly recommend this hotel.

Avoid like plague

Awful. Black mould everywhere. Door had been stripped of security lock and fitted with what looked like a child’s toy with only one locking point. Damp everywhere. Not even a bin that stays closed, aerating the place with whatever you’ve had to throw away. Not suitable for children.
