Advantages: Across from Brent Cross Shopping Centre & Close to Central London Disadvantages: None
...including Starbucks.
There is also a cinema of which is nearby of which we went to see the film Final Destination 3 at.
Shops in the shopping centre include Dorothy Perkins, H & M, Hugo Boss, The Body Shop and a small Swarovski shop.
There was even a circus in the adjoining car park when we visited.
The short shuttle ride to the station involves buying tickets from a machine of which is simple and easy to use.
The short train journey of which had taken around 15 minutes and we were on our way to London Zoo, diappointed as they were renovating a lot of the areas, but the price was still the same. The restaurant is expensive and food was not that brilliant.
There are a couple of souvenir shops with a good range of quality plush cuddly toys-a must have souvenir.
We went on our way to visit Harrods,Hamleys, Madame Tussauds and we went...

Advantages: One of the world's great cosmopolitan centers Disadvantages: So much city . . . so little time
...London will run about £30--though I've always managed that by bus myself. From experience, I can that a taxi from Gatwick to central London will run about £80--ouch.
Train service between London and the Continent generally pass through Waterloo Station, where as trains within the UK may arrive or depart from one of several other stations--including King's Cross, which is now carefully marked for Platform 9¾.

Advantages: Location, cost, facilities. Disadvantages: Immediate area is twin towned with Beirut
...I have stayed here several times in the last 5 years. Forget that it is in a bad area, when you are inside, you could be anywhere.
The Holiday Inn, KingsCross, is a proper four star hotel. The concierge service is excellent, especially for tourists looking for guidance on how to get around and see the sights. The rooms are well proportioned and very reasonably priced (for even better value, go to www.sixcontinentshotels.com/sixcontinentshotels, where you can register for their priority rewards scheme and get the rooms dirt cheap).
Okay, so you may get no view at all, or a great view of a huge Royal Mail depot next door, but in London you have to expect a certain amount of awfulness.
The point is that this is 10 minutes walk from KingsCross station, and not much further from St Pancras. From Euston station, you could walk but I...

The location of the hotel is excellent. Although the area around it is not very aesthetically... more
