The House of Toby was ideally located for a city break. The hotel staff were friendly and willing to go above and beyond for their customers. We would highly recommend this hotel for its central location. We were able to drop our suitcases off within minutes of being of the train at King Cross.

Just awful, noisy, dirty, the shower tray was cracked. Bed uncomfortable. The carpet was a trip hazard. Nothing like the photos

Hotel staff were really lovely and went above and beyond helping us up the stairs with the pram. The bathroom was lovely with fresh towels. Tea was good. Beds were comfy. Could do with a lick of white paint in some areas but that was minor. Good central location for us to get to the Eurostar. Early check out was no issue. Bar was helpful to get drinks. Netflix was a bonus on the tv. Enjoyed the eco body wash and had no reaction with sensitive skin ❤️

Comfortable and quiet hotel
Very friendly staff and comfortable well-decorated and very clean room. The room is slightly on a small side, but that did not cause us any problem. The location, although close to St Pancras and King’s Cross is on a quiet side street, so had a peaceful night.
