We've stayed at the Wardonia several times, which shows that we must like it somewhat. I'll be honest, as I've probably said in my last review of the hotel, we use it because (a) it's reasonably priced and (b) it's very convenient for St Pancras and Kings Cross. This last is very important to us, as we basically use the Wardonia as somewhere to leave our bags, use the toilet, and have a sleep and a shower between getting off the coach to London and catching the Eurostar next morning. For this, the place is ideal. Yes, the rooms are small, yes the shower room is compact, but the bed is comfy, the toilet is clean, the towels dry you, the telly works, and it's warm. The staff are welcoming and friendly, rooms are easy to find, and it's five minutes walk in a straight line to St Pancras. There isn't a kitchen or restaurant, but you're in London. There are shops and restaurants and pubs whichever way you turn. If you don't feel like looking too hard, there are loads in St Pancras, and the Brunswick Centre is not far down the road. You probably wouldn't want to spend a lot of your waking time in the room, but again, you're in London. Go to the pictures, or the theatre, or the British Museum, or the Foundling Museum (both just a short walk away), or just go and see the sights. If all you want is a reasonably priced bed for the night while you wait for a train or after a show, the Wardonia is perfectly adequate.

I'll be honest, for our purposes, I couldn't fault the place. If you want a nice luxury suite where you can entertain your friends, you won't get it here, but the Wardonia doesn't really pretend to be anything other than what it is- a cheap bed for the night with an ensuite toilet.

The Wardonia is an ideal hotel for travellers on a bit of a budget but still wanting some little comforts. This is my second time staying here and I would be quite content to stay again. I stayed in a single bed room which, as expected for a city hotel room, is quite compact however, still felt spacious enough to me. Decoration is a little outdated but it's clean, the window opens, and the bathroom is modern. The hotel is located just off Euston Road by King's Cross Station, a ten minute walk from London Euston, and I barely heard any traffic noise. It is well placed for the underground, local amenities and within easy walking distance of several popular locations. It is worth noting for those with accessibility requirements that there is no lift and the stairs are a bit tight for large luggage items. Would recommend contacting the hotel to discuss options. I had a lovely stay at Wardonia and have been recommending it to friends and family.

This property is incredibly close to Kings Cross Station, the Great British Library, several takeaways and a few shops for your food and drink needs. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming upon arrival, and the room we were given was fairly spacious and clean, and even had a door that led to a small outside patio-like area that we could step onto for whatever reason (because none of us vape or smoke, we did not need to use the outside area at all). There were tea and coffee amenities, as well as shampoo and shower gel in the bathroom, which is always appreciated. There were also plenty of plug sockets dotted around the room! It was a small joke between myself and the others I travelled with, as usually the places we stay have one plug socket to share between everyone, but there were at least four or five in the room alone that we could all use. I personally found the beds quite comfortable, though I am aware comfort is subjective to the individual in question. We mostly used the place to sleep and relax when we weren't running around watching shows or musicals, but it was pretty decent and close to the station, which is what we wanted. Overall, a decent place to stay for a few days in central London!

The beds were quite small and though the double bed was described as a double, it was probably closer to a 3/4 bed. The single bed also seemed pretty slim. The hairdryer included in the room did not work, and we found that the room itself felt a little damp throughout our stay, so ventilation seems to be a slight issue despite there being a good window and door leading to the outside in the room. The bathroom was also very small, and we found the room got cold pretty quickly in the evenings. The TV also worked, but could not seem to connect to any of the terrestrial channels at all, which was a bit of a bummer, but I had brought my tablet with me, so we watched some shows on that, instead.

The location was perfect, 2 mins from King's Cross. Despite it feeling like a volcano due to the recent heat wave an extra fan was supplied. The bed was super comfy. The room was spotlessy clean. Nice little extra of the kettle with tea and coffee provided. The lady on reception and cleaning staff were very friendly!

The room was small but sufficient for what we needed. The sink was awkward to use with it being so small. No space to store folded clothes. Tv didn't work but we usually just like it for background noise so no biggy. None of this would put us off coming back though

Excellent location right off the St. Pancras/King’s Cross Tube and train stations. Lots of restaurants, bars and small grocery stores in walking distance. Everything was very clean, which is very important! Desk staff was on-site and available 24/7. They even allowed us to check in a bit early, which was a great surprise (don’t expect this but they do allow you to keep your bags there if you do get there well before check in). The rooms are VERY small. Enough space for a bed and very small desk. This is fine for a solo traveler or two people who are comfortable in close quarters. We knew these were small rooms, so we were not surprised or disappointed in the slightest. Bathroom was clean with good shower pressure and lots of hot water.

Nothing! Because we knew exactly what we were getting, we were happy with the hotel.

Great location, staff were so friendly.

The triple room would have been tight for two but we had to sit on the bed and take turns to step across the room. Also all of the TV channels were patchy at best.

My room was a single room. It was very tiny but comfortable because everything I might need was there. There was a kettle with plenty of coffee, cream and tea. WI-FI worked very well even on the 3rd floor. The place is silent and the bed extremely comfy. The bathroom is small, but the shower was perfect. The hotel is very close to King's Cross station and there are bars and restaurants all around. I can suggest this hotel to young people and short time travelers. I spent 2 nights there and it was perfect for me.

This is one of the best hotels in that area. The rooms are the tiny type, but they have been recently refurbished, which means proper new bathrooms and showers. Staff was very friendly and helpful when there was an issue and it felt overall more welcoming than most hotels in that area. Can recommend!

Just be aware of the type of hotel this (and all the others in that area) is: Still very small rooms, no escalators and difficult-to-manoeuvre stairs.

Close to St Pancras station, ideal for catching early Eurostar. Very friendly, helpful receptionist who carried our cases for us downstairs to our ‘compact’ twin room, which was clean and well equipped for an overnight stay.

On a slightly noisy street, our room which was single sized was very ‘compact’! Being thin we could each fit into the tiny bathroom, which wouldn’t have been possible for a larger person. There was no room for more than 2 narrow single beds, nowhere to open out cases except on the beds. The tv didn’t work.

Position is perfect to reach every part of London easily in short time. The room was clean. I suggest it for short stayes of maximum three days.

In the description was mentioned the size of the room but I didn't expect it to be so small. Moreover our room, located on the third floor, was very very hot. Fortunately we asked to change it and the other one was fresher and we were able to sleep in the night.
