Comfortable and quiet hotel

Very friendly staff and comfortable well-decorated and very clean room. The room is slightly on a small side, but that did not cause us any problem. The location, although close to St Pancras and King’s Cross is on a quiet side street, so had a peaceful night.

The House of Toby was ideally located for a city break. The hotel staff were friendly and willing to go above and beyond for their customers. We would highly recommend this hotel for its central location. We were able to drop our suitcases off within minutes of being of the train at King Cross.
