Loved by The Standard London Hotel guests
"The room was lovely, offering incredible views."
"The hotel design and decor is true to period, with some exceptional areas, like the lifts, library, and top floor restaurant."
"The bed was large and very comfortable, the view over London, with the Shard, was spectacular."
Situated about 20 minutes' walk from Gordon Square and a mere 1.7 km from the famous British Museum, the luxury The Standard London Hotel features event rooms and a banquet hall for various purposes.

“In my opinion, the location opposite St Pancras is a huge advantage, making it ideal for Eurostar travellers. I think the bold, Brutalist design houses surprisingly stylish rooms, a lively rooftop bar, and distinctive spaces like the Library Lounge. For me, its blend of convenience and curated experiences makes it a standout choice in King's Cross.”

The bed was huge and comfy. service was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble. we received complimentary cocktails upon arrival, a really lovely touch. the personalised text service to arrange a surprise was so helpful, i will never forget that attention.

the room was a beautiful king room. the fittings looked to be of high quality. the rooftop bar seemed superb to me.
