Lonely Planet
"Rising like a phoenix from the ashes of the 'old' King's Cross – once the city's red light district – the Great Northern Hotel, with its curving brick facade, would make its 1854 incarnation proud." Full review
Zagat
"Open since 1854, this elegant hotel within King's Cross Station retains its wrought-iron staircases and broad, curved corridors, though guestrooms are thoroughly modern."
Frommer's

Michelin Guide

Frommer's
"In North Soho, a short walk from the heartbeat of Soho Square, this town house has been luxuriously converted into a high-end hotel that is London chic at its finest." Full review

DK Eyewitness
"The ground floor bar is always buzzing with local workers as well as guests in this exquisitely designed hotel in a street full of restaurants."
Star Service
"Things are casual, including the lobby with its oak floor and leather chairs. Arrivals enter through this sparsely furnished reception room that is more modern-art gallery than lobby." Full review
Gayot
"Rooms feature soft pastels, snug duvets and pretty drapes, and all come well-equipped with the latest technology."
Travel + Leisure

Zagat
"A Bloomsbury Group theme runs throughout this high-end boutique hotel set in a townhouse a block from Soho Square."
