Don't stay at room 7!
When I arrived I had been "upgraded" to a better room. The catch is that this room was a lower floor room (below ground floor) and it was facing the street with a storage just in front of it. There were men (not form the hotel) loading vans at 3am on that storage. The room had single glass windows that are old, without any isolation for cold or noise. IKt was like if people were inside my room at 3am, walking over metal stairs and carrying heavy things form teh storage.

Lovely stay at the Gyle
The Gyle was a perfect location, steps away from King’s Cross and Euston stations. I stayed on the 3rd level. Quite steep steps to carry up luggage. The room itself was very small, though OK for me as I was traveling solo. The compact space was used well. Keep in mind this hotel is located in a townhouse so the walls can be quite thin. Enjoyed the breakfast included. Enjoyed that the bar was open 24 hours! Staff was pleasant. Would stay again the next time I’m in London.

Lovely if you don’t mind a few inconveniences
Reception staff very friendly and polite. Room was lovely and clean. The vaulted bathroom room was very nice however the issue was that the rooms were downstairs in the basement more specifically underneath the entrance of the hotel and therefore lots of noise, people coming in and out of the hotel and people talking etc. These rooms should not be so highly priced due to this inconvenience, although I did see a pair of earbud I don’t think this is a sufficient compensation for such disturbances. No phone in the room so you have to go to reception if you have any issues, the bathroom lacked hooks or towel rails to hang used towels and robes, there was no bin in the room only in the bathroom which is inconvenient. Overall this was a nice hotel and the vaulted bathroom was nice but a little cold. One more thing the TV has screen mirror option but I was not able to utilise this as it didn’t appear to be working.

We selected this property because of its proximity to the St Pancras rail station and the location was great. Friendly helpful staff and the room and other facilities were very clean! Please note that this hotel has NO lift/elevator and, if you have heavy or oversized luggage, it will be a REAL challenge to get your stuff up the narrow wooden steps! One other challenge is figuring out the light/power switches. The master switch was on the wall next to the door and we could never get the all the lights to go out without shutting off the master switch. The hotel employee was unable to explain how the system works.

The hotel has a depressing feel about it. It is dark and cramped. When I was checking in there was heavy cigarette smoke inside. There were always cleaning stuff, packed laundry all around, coming in and going out. It is nice to know that there is an effort to clean but they should not be in the way as the spaces are already so tight inside. Of the three receptionists- first one was super cool and welcoming; the second was an ice cold lady; the third one just doing his job. Would not want to stay again:(
