...could be anywhere.
The Holiday Inn, Kings Cross, 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 ... ...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 Kings Cross station, and not much further from St Pancras. From Euston station, you could walk but I would advise a cab.
I have found that they are friendly and efficient, when travelling on business or on pleasure with a young family. Adjoining rooms can be arranged (we stayed with myself, my wife, 9 month ...

Advantages: Great 4* hotel Disadvantages: Isn't in a very nice area
...stopped at the Kings cross Holiday Inn and was impressed so we choose to go there. Although its a little further away from oxford street and other sites, we knew what we were getting. Plus our friends live close by.
It is set in a horid area!!! and only view from your hotel window is of the royal mail depot.
However once you step in off the street it is a different story, definately a classy joint.
The rooms are nice and spacious, we had a twin ... ...two in a bed, the room is big with a TV, phone, air conditioning etc etc. Bathroom was really nice.

A twin room for 4 people starts at around £100 up to qround £180 for 1 night if you book on their website, this isn't bad £25 per person. then an extra £12 for breakfast. Search around on the internet for good deals we got a night for 4 people plus a breakfast ...

Advantages: Beautifully presented, very welcoming Disadvantages: Feels a bit rough in the surrounding area
The Holiday Inn Kings Cross/Bloomsbury is a beatifully presented and welcoming hotel. The decor is clean, modern and, to a degree, much more opulent in design than other holiday inns where I have stayed. The room itself was large with a king size bed and a very nice seating area (which I presume will change to a sleeping area if required. The bathroom was exceptionally clean and about average size for a hotel of its class. The view from the window ... ...Close the curtains though and you could be anywhere in the world. The staff at the hotel are extremely welcoming and accommodating. They were very helpful and could not do enough for you. I found it very interesting to observe how 'international' the staff were. I was very aware of their excellent ability to communicate in various languages to foreign visitors. This is always a very welcoming sign. As for breakfast: It was just like any other hotel. ...
