We stayed at this premier Inn for one night (a Saturday) in May.
We were in London for the weekend and needed a bed for the night. This hotel, like all the others in the chain fills its promises. We use them because they are reliable in their predictabilty, and we know exactly what to expect.
The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful, checkin was speedy- our room was ready at 12.00- although officially checkin is at 2.00pm so we were able to dump our bags and get on with our day straightaway. The room was extremely clean as was the bathroom. Yes it was small, but we had no intention of wasting our trip to a very hot and sunny London in in our hotel room, so it made no difference to us.
We actually chose the hottest weekend of the year to be in London, so everywhere was packed and extremely hot. We had a brilliant day, saw a great show in the evening and then later really appreciated a short tube ride and just a two minute walk to the hotel. The location of the hotel is great, very handy for the tube, although if we hadn't done as much walking as we had during the day, we could easily have walked there, people do forget how close everything is in London, to actually walk rather than taking a tube is a great way to see the city.
We had a great night's sleep, we had no disturbance from road noise at all- complete quiet- we did use the air conditioning unit- on the "quiet" setting and we found it to be very efficient at cooling the room and yes it actually was remarkably quiet., it certainly did not stop us getting to sleep,
We did have the breakfast in the hotel the next morning, we decided to have the poached eggs, these were prepared for us while we waited, and were cooked perfectly. The entire breakfast buffet was very well organised and was constantly replemished. As busy as the hotel undoubtedly was on such a scorcher of a weekend, breakfast still felt unhurried and relatively peaceful.
All in all this was the perfect place for a city break without breaking the bank. As long as you go knowing what to expect.
I think some overseas, especially American guests book thinking they have found a bargain, but not realising that this is actually a budget option, there is no romance or character in any Premier Inn - but you get that in bucket loads in London and for that matter in the entire UK , itself.
We couldn't fault this hotel and would happily stay again.

this hotel is great its just near kingscross train station and the under ground it has a good bar and restarante the i dont have a bad word for this hotel.

At around £100 this isn't the cheapest budget hotel in London but is is consistently good and in a great location right next to the trains and tubes and in up-n-coming Kings Cross.

You always know what you are getting with Premier - good quality, a good night's sleep promise and clean, stylish rooms.

The courtyard layout in this complex is a delight and I have had several nice evenings (before a day's business) camped out in the bar whch does reasonable meals.

They also appear to have banned smoking now - getting rid of that bizarrre situation in some places where you have smokers' rooms on the same floor!

I always try to do breakfast too - they even make you porridge if you ask.

Book it...if you can!

I stayed at the King's Cross Premier Inn for one night in early May, and like previous reviewers, found it a good choice. Check-in was efficient, and my second-floor room was quiet and, by London standards, fairly spacious. All the essentials were right: the bed was comfortable, the shower worked well, and everything was spotlessly clean. The TV offered all the Freeview and several radio channels, and there was a good WiFi signal, though I didn't use the WiFi service because of the cost. The windows didn't open so I had to use the airconditioning (which was efficient and not too noisy) - not very environmentally sound, but in London open windows do mean a lot of noise. The location, just by King's Cross mainline station, was very convenient. All in all, a good near-budget hotel for a short stay; my only criticism is that the bedside lights weren't bright enough to read or work by, though the desk lighting was adequate.
