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." Full review
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." Full review
OysterLuxury
"The 91 rooms, with sash windows and vintage Farrow & Bell Shades, are elegant and contemporary, and a few of the bathrooms have roll-top bathtubs." Full review
Jetsetter "Revamped railway hotel with gorgeous rooms, a sultry cocktail bar and a restaurant helmed by a Michelin-starred chef." Full review
Time Out "From the swanky lighting and the hand crafted furniture to the sleek decoration, everything about the Great Northern Hotel oozes glamour and sophistication." Full review
Frommer's "Rooms aren’t huge, but they have a smart modern edge that includes—daringly for a hotel—cream-colored carpeting...high-standard perks pack the other spaces—a good British restaurant, Plum & Spilt Milk" Full review
