After reading agreeable reviews about the Arriva Hotel on Tripadvisor I was looking forward to a pleasant nights stay. However, I was soon to be disappointed when I arrived and was told that my room was on the third floor and that the lift was broken. It then got worse when we went into the room and found it to... more

I booked into this hotel for 3 nights. It was the first time I'd stayed in the King's Cross area and I arrived with a little trepidation. My fears were unfounded though, I was given a quite spacious (for London) clean room at the front, with a nice, clean modern bathroom and shower. The double bed was firm and comfortable... more

An unpretentious, but geat value (for London) hotel, located very conveniently close to the St Pancreas international terminal and Kings Cross Metro station. Tea and coffee masking facilities in the room a real bonus. Only negative was the ever bored looking front desk person and the very stale croissants served up each morning. more

The location is convenient, the room was small but clean and the refridgerator was an added bonus. Breakfast was not fabulous, but had all the basics including cereal, toast, juice, coffee, canned fruit, cold cuts and cheese. We were in the back, so noise was not an issue but, being on the groundfloor, we noticed that the window is accessible... more

This is the very definition of budget accommodation. It's rated two star because it's cheap and basic. The place was clean and quiet for central London but does have very small rooms that seem s little run down. It is, however, VERY close to Kings Cross/St Pancras and not a million miles from Euston for that matter. If you're looking... more

My partner and I stayed at the Hotel Arriva just for the weekend and found it incredibly disheartening. The men at the front desk (and it was always men) were unhelpful, angry, and had an air of resentment that they should have to help any of their guests. They certainly seemed like they did not like their jobs. Our room... more

The best thing about this hotel is that it's about a 5 minute walk from King's Cross and St. Pancras Station - crucial if you're taking the subway/tube around London or the train to/from London. The rooms are pretty small, but decent and pretty clean. The only real beef my mother and I had with this hotel was the plumbing... more

We were 4 adults and one child staying at the hotel for 2 nights. We arrived at 11am, check-in time is at 2pm but they have a luggageroom. However, our room was ready so we could actually check-in 3 hours early, no extra charge! The rooms are quite small, all different, there is a lift, important if you have heavy... more

The Arriva Hotel is well located, in the Kings Cross area, 5 min walk from the Station, with metro, bus and train. The building is tipically in English vitorian style. Rooms seemed modernly refurbished, small thou', even smaller than expected (only 1 person fits between the bed and the wall; bathroom doesn't allow much movements with tiny washbasin). However, they... more
