Let me start by saying the staff at Crowne Plaza King's Cross are wonderful and the location is nice & walkable if you need to get to King's Cross-St. Pancras. Unfortunately, our small room, burnt dinner and disappointing shower overshadowed the positives. Check in was quick & easy. We had to add a night due to a train strike which had our Eurostar trip delayed by a day. They were able to keep us in the same room which was nice since we had luggage & 2 children. We booked a premium room with 2 double beds and there was barely any walking space between the bed & the desk. We ordered pizza for room service and the bottom was burnt & inedible. Lastly the shower was the type that basically has no door. This was frustrating because the water would leak out onto the bathroom floor leaving it soaked. While the rest of the stay wasn't terrible, I do not see us staying here again in the future.

Painful sleep
The bed and pillows were horrible - unlike any I have ever experienced in my life. I woke up each day in pain. The breakfast was good but there is a long line each morning to get in. My room was missing a phone, tv remote, enough towels for everyone.
