We picked Euro Hotel (Bloomsbury) for the first leg of our London stay based on its proximity to St. Pancras International/Kings Cross (10-minute walk). We booked a quad room directly on their website which offers a 20% booking discount (but note there is also a credit card surcharge when making online payment). We also liked that it had free cancellation and an en suite bathroom. The room was a little tight for four people, but that's to be expected when staying in the city.
The hotel was easily accessible from the tube; it was a short walk (also 10 minutes) from Russell Square station (Piccadilly line). We arrived before the designated check-in time but were able to leave our bags with reception for the morning.
All of the staff were friendly and pleasant during our stay. The rooms were clean and had the necessary amenities - clean towels, soap, body wash/shampoo, toilet paper, television, hair dryer, etc. The room also had a desk, electric kettle, and coffee/tea offerings. WiFi worked on the property without issue. Our room was on the basement level and the windows were open for a breeze; even with the windows open, noise disruption from the street was minimal.
The complimentary full English and continental breakfast was a nice amenity. The dining room (also located with the reception/lounge area) had a classy feel to it with the decorated round tables and table settings. The continental breakfast (fruit, pastries, cheese, yogurt, and cereal) were buffet-style at the counter. The full English breakfast order was taken by the table staff and you could pick and choose which English breakfast items you wanted on your plate. Everyone was also given the choice of white or wheat toast, and the table was set with butter and an assortment of jams; other condiments such as Nutella and Marmite were available at the buffet counter. Coffee, juice (apple and orange), and water were also available. This sit-down breakfast was a nice way to start the day in London.
After checkout, we were again able to store our bags with reception until the afternoon. Overall, it was an enjoyable stay at Euro Hotel and I would come here again. read more
