Good location to stay
good place to stay for location, very quiet and a good shower

Why I liked the California
The hotel was right by the tube and Kings Cross station. There’s an amazing Indian restaurant nearby and a corner store. We were warmly greeted and given first floor accommodations. Location is awesome!
Pamela, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Ok for a short stay
Brilliant location. Clean but very noisy I am deaf and I found the noise of the nearby tubes very loud. They run until midnight which was unfortunate as I had an early train he next day
Lisa, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Always a pleasure, business or leisure.
Jennifer, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

OK stay
Friendly staff when checking in. Our room was tiny and the bed wasn’t the most comfortable. No hand towel so we had to use our bath towel to dry our hands. The flooring was lifting in places and the whole place felt tired and in need of a spruce up. Great location for the station and lots of restaurants and bars in the area. Could hear the trains but didn’t mind that.

Great hotel, in a perfect location, and for a very reasonable price! I would recommend staying here and would consider staying here again!

Fab place!!
Fab place. Great staff and value for money. Will definitely stay again
Susan, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

OK stay… but worn down
Overall ok stay, nothing fundamentally wrong. Was however a disappointment. Mainly because the pics of the hotel makes it look like a cute, cozy little boutique hotel… and it reality it was very worn down, and in an area that seemed a little dodgy.

Rooms are very small. Location is excellent to Kings across. Staff especially the evening staff when we checked in were lovely. Would stay for convenience only.

10/10 Exceptional

The property was ideally located, near the King's Cross Tube Station and St.Pancras International, making it easy to get anywhere in the city, and get out of the city quickly with no fuss. The accomodtion was simple and just what was needed....

Perfect for transport
One night stay. Comfortable beds, cute outside bar, lovely staff
Alison, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Convenience is key
Location is prime as it is a stone throw away from King's Cross and access the the international trains into Europe, always a good back up when you have an early train in the morning

Great value
Lovely little hotel brilliant location, very noisy with building works across the road and extremely hot (even in November) there was a fan in the room but it didn't help. But the rooms were pleasant and the staff extremely friendly

Location is excellent for visitors on train.
weilong, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location, affordable character
With warm greetings from staff upon arrival, The California, hosting some 60 rooms, is old-world boutique hotel, a comfy couch with a few bare threads in a location that’s hard to beat and a cozy patio for a coffee and croissant. The connected townhouses hide a warren of hallways and stairs where every room is different and reflects the cubicle style that seems to be rage.
