"A swish hotel on a secluded City street near the Tower of London... service is superb."
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."

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
"Of all the major railway terminal hotels currently in operation in London, the Great Northern is the most distinct—and the smallest."
Full review
Star Service
"The grand sweeping curve of the hotel is still at the hub of Europe's railway network and is just a few steps from U.K. and international Eurostar rail terminals."
