We had a wonderful stay. The hotel is very trendy and clean. We like how close this is to the train station. We had a trip in Eurostar and wanted to be able enjoy a couple of days in London, but also wanted it to be convenient to just get our bags and go when it was time to leave. This was a great location for that purpose. It was a very quiet neighborhood, close to some good restaurants. Our room was very spacious, it had everything we needed. We were on the basement lower floor, which had a very nice window with natural light through the small courtyard. One caution, is the stairs are a bit tight, so if you have a lot of luggage, it can get tricky.

The Hotel is 5mins walk from King's Cross station, making it convenient to travel on the tube. But the room was rather small and if have a luggage and staying on the ground floor there is no lift and the stairs are rather small.

Location is ideal for mainline stations. Room and furnishings very comfortable. We did not like the way the hotel is advertised on Expedia. Some details are completely wrong and very misleading. There is no restaurant on site, no garden, no picnic area. Reception directs you to another hotel which is inconvenient particularly in Winter. Soundproofing is poor. We were allocated a basement room directly below the main entrance corridor from which every footfall was clearly audible.

The room has a unique design that I really like. I have been to london twice before and this has been the best place I have stayed at so far. Its in a great location for transportation and food close by. The hotel also made me feel safe by automatically locking the outside door after a certain time and you need to buzz in. Staff was very helpful and kind. Room smelled AMAZINGGGGGG and the free coffee tea and water is an amazing touch. My only recommendation is to add a small wash cloth to the room. Thats all I would say was missing but other than that, I will definitely be returning there again.

Staffs are nice and helpful. Do note that their house keeping service only available from 3.30pm to 4.30pm. Room is quite small, but essentials are available inside the room, clean and comfortable stay. Did an upgrade to the vault room, the washroom is very cold during winter season, no heater available. Overall, it's a pleasant stay. Walkable distance to train station. Not much food option available around the hotel, but it's convenient to get uber food.

Not restful
The hotel is over 3 floor's with no lift, so don’t bring lots of luggage . We were in a room on the third floor which was ok, but the aircon unit, either on or off, made tremendous noise throughout the night so neither me or my partner slept well. We needed to use noise cancelling headphones just to get some peace

Great stay
Brilliant stay at the Gyle. Hotel was lovely with everything you need to make you feel welcome. The only thing that I would mark it down on was that the room we had, the hot water wasn't very hot. More just warm, which was a little disappointing when wanting a red hot shower. But overall brilliant and beautiful hotel.

Hidden Gem.
From walking into the hotel it felt calm and relaxing. We were checked in by the kind lady who couldn’t do enough. Our room was number 21 and felt really cosy. It’s one of the comfiest beds I have stayed in and it was really clean and modern. Would definitely stay here again and excellent value for money. Great location near to Kings Cross and places to eat and drink.

Not the place for a good night’s sleep
We were unfortunately very underwhelmed by the Gyle. Much like the Megaro (which is part of the same group) it’s style over substance. A lot of thought has gone into the decor, at the expense of the fundamental guest experience. We had a ‘junior king suite’ which was just a double room with an unusable sitting area separated from the bedroom by a bathroom. The bed was small with a squeaky frame. The mattress was either old or cheap, so when the other person moves you can’t help waking up. It had a noticeable dip in the middle. The bedding was dusty and terrible for allergies. The room itself was incredibly noisy too. You could hear every toilet flush or footstep from upstairs, and guests coming and going all night. We were woken at 7am by the laundry truck too. Overall, we slept horribly and won’t be back. The location is good and staff are friendly. Breakfast didn’t look appealing.

Great location and very pleasant hotel. Room was only accessible via stairs, so be forewarned. My shower did leak on the floor however, so that was a bit inconvenient. Wouldn't recommend this room for more than one person, as the bathroom was basically next to the bed!

Hidden Gem of a hotel
We had a night away in London for Christmas, this hotel is in a superb location about a 1minute walk from St Pancras station, but situated in a quiet road away from the hustle and bustle. The hotel is very quirky and feels very luxurious, the rooms are decorated brilliantly with very comfortable beds, a fantastic shower, coffee and tea making facilities, water and toiletries all provided. This hotel feels like a hidden gem right in the centre of Kings Cross.

A very nice place to stay. Excellent attention from staff - all staff members are polite and we were treated with care. We were always sure that if a problem ever arose then we would be looked after in any way possible. Fantastic location - great links to all areas of London, a very convenient spot. The complimentary coffee was a wonderful surprise addition. The interior is unlike any other, unique and spectacular with a gorgeous colour scheme! It certainly stands out from the crowd with the option of having your own private outdoor space - a rare thing in London! My only complaint (and I am being incredibly fussy here) is that there were no coat hooks within the room so it was a difficult task trying to keep my long coat off the floor - however, everything else about the room far outshone this minor flaw. A very fair price for the amazing features you can experience! If I visit London in the future then The Gyle will be my first choice of accommodation without a doubt.
