Great affordable option

Great stay, room was small, as expected. But very comfortable. I had a shared bathroom and shower (those are 2 separate rooms in the hallway), both were clean. Also, you have a sink in your room which is great. Good location as well, right near the train station.

Overnight stay for morning Eurostar

Stayed in the annex across the road. Room small but adequate. On third floor so worth noting there is no lift! Key was a bit tricky but the receptionist was very helpful. Location is perfect for Eurostar.

We had 1 night stay as we had to be up early to catch the Eurostar. We had a warm welcome on arrival and the staff were accommodating with keeping the rooms as close together as possible. Great location too. I would just point out that there are no lifts. Thank you for a lovely stay.

It is right around the corner from King's Cross - so perfect if you are taking an early morning train. Lots of tiny stairs, so inconvenient for luggage, but they let us keep our largest luggage at the reception area.

I will return to Alhambra

I flew to London for a fun 4 day weekend. I loved that Alhambra was centrally located as I am a walker. Camden and Camden Market are a beautiful walk along the canal. The Hotel Team were very helpful with directions and questions. Lastly to great relief, the hotel found a lost item of mine ( a ring that had sentimental value) and they are sending it back to me in the states. So happy and so pleased with my stay there.

Great location- very nice front desk. Good price!

Super great location. Extremely close to St Pancras/Kings Cross Station. Front Desk really nice- especially Bruno. Room quit small and no air conditioning- which is not usually a problem in London! Good price!
