The Standard Hotel, London

Funky premises and vibrant overall look. The staff are sharp and friendly especially in the breakfast service. Location is central.

No hooks to put towels on and the bed throw needs to be updated.

Really friendly staff who genuinely seem to want to help

Only 2 small milk sachets

Absolutely loved the location and the style of the building. Great welcome from Pablo on the front desk, but all the staff were lovely. Fantastic city views from our corner ‘queen of queens’ room.

Nothing!

A lovely and fun hotel in the heart of Kings Cross. I was there at a very busy time and staff was very accomodating. The views from roof top restaurant are not to be missed.

Very busy. Must make reservations for restaurants. The gym is in the basement is really datk. Lighting in the rooms could be better but the lively decor makes up for it.

The quirkiness of it so lovely and the location

Beautiful design, spaces are amazing. Lighting and layout superb. Service was exceptional with no stuffiness and genuinely great guest interactions. The answer was always ‘yes’

Nothing

Location is great, nice bar

We had the superior king room with bath and loved it, very spacious, great design, huge windows, very quiet. Overall nice vibe in the hotel, but not too noisy. Friendly staff, great location.

More tea bags, milk and coffee in room please

More tea bags, milk and coffee in room please

Trendy, thoughtful design. Great vibe and dining options. Staff were mostly attentive and helpful.

Great spot for public transport but access by car is a bit tricky due to one way roads.

Location and services

Room was awesome. Enjoyed the little details of the design of the rooms and hotel. Room was spaciuos and bed was comfortable.

Incredible hotel, the staff, the decor, the bars, the restaurant, everything was fantastic.

Staff are all amazing, hotel is clean rooms are very comfortable. Perfect bed!! Will definitely be back.

Amazing hotel with a superb vibe!

The room was clean and comfortable. Location good was close to Kings Cross and St Pancras

Food was expensive and not very good. We had an evening meal and breakfast, it was very disappointing. The second day we ate out. There were plenty of places to eat nearby.

Great , fancy

The hotel is maybe a little too big with too much things happening . Parties , restaurants , events . Makes you feel a little outsider at your hotel you have chosen to stay . But it’s only a small detail . In the room , more light in the dressing zone would be nice .

Excellent hotel. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Located in an amazing Brutalist building, the Standard should be on any fan of design's list for places to stay in London. Great location, just across the street from King's Cross / St. Pancras station, you have access to the many lines of London. The restaurant lounge and the roof top bar are both fantastic spaces for food / drink options.

Room was a tad small - but it's London and we understand that rooms can run small.

All staff were exemplary

Location, the general vibe is fun and relaxed

Nothing in particular.

Very clean lovey room, with a fab view ( which is what id requested!)

Went to bar on 10th floor and invited friends, we never got served our drinks that we ordered (25 mins wait) in the end we had to leave as we had a table booked at another restaurant. That was poor service. I think it s a little much when checking out that you are given a 5% service charge on the bill. I know it's optional, but you feel a little pressured to accept it.

Beautiful decor and amazing staff

Nothing like as wrong

Excellent

One of the lifts did not work

great design. nice breakfast buffet and very accomodating of requests. loved the location - near good food at reasonable prices and the amazing st pancras station

gym was fine but not great

Very friendly

Staff were really friendly and helpful. Despite my room being on the Euston road side (with a great view!) I could not hear much noise from outside as the soundproofing is excellent.

Location is best thing on this hotel which it’s literally in front of king cross train station

Location was great

Breakfast service was clunky

We were upgraded and our rooms were incredible. Staff were so helpful and bent over backwards to help. Everyone v friendly

I loved it all

Lovely hotel ,very close to rail services and taxis ,room with a reasonable view of the city ,exceptionally clean ,very comfortable bed and good quality linen . had a a small snack in the Library cafe ,was VERY impressed that I got a good size teapot of tea.with REAL !! tea leaves !! and good quality tea ,also better for the environment best tea Ihave had in a hotel 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟.the coffee was also delicious . Staff very friendly throught and very helpfull ..Would stay again ..🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Complimentry water in the room would be a nice gesture for the price of the room.. as it was only available from the mini bar .

Helpful staff. Great location, next to train station.

Too pricey. No windows in the room, felt claustrophobic. No coffee in the room.

I must start by saying that, having booked a Junior Suite, I found myself upgraded to a Junior Suite with Terrace. I think that I might have struggled with the Junior Suite as originally booked. Despite the obvious comfort, I do not cope well with rooms that do not have opening windows. The terrace obviously changed all that; and that is what I review here. The room was spacious and extremely comfortable, with magnificent views south across the city and beyond. If I’m paying the sort of room rates that I was here, then I expect things to be right; and they were. I’m not sure that there’s much point in going into details. The room, staff and surroundings were everything that I would have expected under the circumstances. Breakfast was magnificent – though see below. Except to add that I reported a flickering light in the bathroom, and this was attended to forthwith. This is in marked contrast to a similarly priced hotel nearby where I stayed a year ago. I reported a missing bedside light – twice; it was not replaced, and my complaint at this failure was responded to in a singularly mealy-mouthed fashion. You will note also my criticism below. Whilst I stand by the criticism, I must also add that, when, a little while later, I addressed reception staff on the subject, they organised a more or less immediate and no quibbles partial refund.

I should have liked to eat breakfast in the breakfast room. I arrived there, however, to find that there was no getting away from the piped music which pervades more or less every inch of the public areas of the hotel. I do not like music over any meal, least of all breakfast; and I think that the Standard could really consider setting aside a quiet area for those guests – more numerous, I suspect, than you might realise – who want peace and quiet. In consequence I decided to order breakfast in the bedroom via room service. The problem with ordering like this is that there is little opportunity to discuss anything with staff – quantities, small variations etc. What arrived was absolutely first rate, but far more than I either needed or wanted. As I have said above, I was deeply impressed by the way in which my complaint about this was dealt with. And I still think that the hotel could give some thought to their policies on noise/sound/music around the building in general.

Amazing staff, lovely room, super comfy bed. Great views from the room and the options for food and drink were great. Loved all of it!

Location and service

Loved it all

Location was perfect and im glad i was placed on the side that overlooked the shard and south London, not St Pancras.

no DAB radio stations on the tv

Everything

?

The Standard is absolutely beautiful. The decor is stunning and the staff are very welcoming. Our room was lovely, with everything we could need. We also relaxed in the bar one evening and in the library area with drinks and snacks another day.

There is nothing I would change at all about The Standard

Lovely rooms, comfortable beds and quality toiletries

Had to wait a long time to use the lifts in the evenings as they're also used for the restaurant on the top floor.

Excellent location opposite St Pancras station. Check in and check out the smoothest I’ve ever experienced! Staff always polite and helpful.

Room layout was a little bit of a triumph of style over functionality

Staff are exceptional

WiFi

Location, Roof Top, Decimo Restaurant

Nothing

Position for Eurostar, canal walk & lots of other activities. The restaurant. Staff very friendly & seemed happy even late at night. Very convenient location. Nice terrace bar.

For your standard of hotel, it would have been nice to have had the first bottle of water on arrival on the house? Also with my early morning coffee or tea, I was looking for a cookie of some sort? Usually in hotels you are offered a small packet of 2 cookies on the coffee tea making tray each? Cookies can be bought wrapped in twos....! Another important fact, I was disappointed after having been to the theatre with my nephew & his girlfriend from Belgium, we w had a nightcap in your bar & wanted a few nibbles, but the kitchen had just closed! The time was 22.35pm,? I thought this country wants to boost the economy? London used to be the be the best capital in the world? All in all I enjoyed my stay. But next time remind me to buy some sandwiches when returning from a show?

Everything!

All was perfect for our stay.

the interior was fabulous! the architecture, the used colours, the tiles, the furniture ... it all created a lovely vintage atmosphere

the noise from the disco/bar on the 10th floor/ We slept in room 909, beautiful room and view but untill late we had to hear the beats ...

The location was amazing.., staff weee fantastic. The range of bars and restaurants in the hotel itself were excellent. A really great atmosphere.

I loved everything about it!

The location was great close to the train station. We really enjoyed the room itself with the couch and the bathroom was amazing. The best was super comfortable which was just what we needed after a long day of travel.

No bathroom fan or toilet brush

The friendly staff and the quirky decor it's definitely where Austin Powers would have stayed!. The rooms were really quite big and the beds comfortable.

The slow service in the double standard and small portion sizes in the same.

The Standard Hotel is gorgeously designed, from the floor to the ceiling to the curtains, everything is beautiful. Even the little coffee details are adorable. The hospitality staff are amazingly accommodating. I will definitely come back.

Service is always good here. They always go above and beyond subtly. Little questions to check in to see if everything is just right for you

I would prefer a simpler room service breakfast menu. The food is always good but sometimes I would just like poached eggs without the faff. (i could also ask)
