The Harrison Gastro Pub and Hotel Reviews

The room was very large especially for one...
The room was very large, especially for one person, with very comfortable beds and the cooked breakfast was excellent - far better than the breakfasts at many bigger hotels. The style was modern, but the decor a little worn. However, it was very clean.<br />The hotel was in a great central location on a quiet street, but I was disturbed by kids letting off fireworks until around midnight - however, once they stopped, I enjoyed a peaceful and comfortable night's sleep. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, but were a little difficult to find when I was ready to check out in the morning.<br />I would certainly consider staying there again at the late room rate I paid, and if sharing a room the full rate would also be reasonable for the location, quality of accommodation and breakfast.

Booked through a very efficient late room service, The Harrison was a great find in the Kings Cross back streets: small and cosy, fantastic friendly service (even beyond the call of duty with the amount of luggage we had), very good food and wine in a bar with sofas and open fires, comfortable beds. Highly recomended!

I found the room to be adequate for our stay but considering the price I could of got a cleaner choice elsewhere - Travelodge, Premier Inn or a guest house closer to Kings Cross. The rooms really need new carpets - light colour in a hotel? Also some basic paint to spruce the rooms and stairs up. Kettle in room did not work. Bathroom was clean as well as bed linen and towels. The bar downstairs was closed so we did not experience any noise. Would I stay here again - for the price no.

Room was spacious as opted for twin room giving us an extra single bed and more bedroom space. Room and bathroom were very clean. Breakfast in bed great bonus, can opt to sit in pub also - Can have a combo of full english and yoghurt/fruit with tea and extra toast etc. Vary polite and friendly staff. Checked in late so not much time to view area but location is very central with nearby tube station. Hotel is off main roads which is nice but in a run down area which isn't nice to look at but for the night its fine. I'd most def stay here again. Paid 59 over laterooms normally 99 per night. Parking is avail outside but must be moved before 8.30am. Free 7pm to 8.30am. 5 min walk to NCP which charges approx 12 for 24 hours. I like how you get a front door key and you come and go as you please, almost your own apartment for the night. Only four rooms 1 twin with 1 double bed and single bed (spacious with space for luggage) 1 double bedroom (enough for a couple) and 2 singles.

Pub is in heart of Kings Cross district and is very convenient for main line train stations etc. but is set back from the main road so relatively quiet at night for such a central location. Despite having a pub downstairs, the bedrooms are mostly on the second floor so noise isn't a big issue. The breakfast is good value.

The pub is located in the midst of a council estate, but the pub itself is pleasant, with a nice retro lounge bar feel to it. The welcome was reasonable, but not warm. However the standard of the accommodation is poor. If my room was 'newly refurbished' they need to sue the decorators - cracks in the wall, discoloured paint, a large crack in the window pane. The furniture is quite cheap, the TV tiny and the plant in the bathroom had expired several months ago and no-one has yet removed it. During my stay the batteries in the Tv remote ran out, and I asked for them to be replaced, only for the 'new set' to run out again the following evening - there is economy and there is penny pinching. Very strong cooking smell in the bathroom, and the cold water was bizarrely warm. The breakfast was ok, fried eggs a little undercooked and the bacon had an odd synthetic smoke taste, but the concern was that the full English appeared almost immediately, and one suspects that due to the pre-ordering system, had been prepared for a while prior to being served - therefore don't be late for the time you specify for your cooked brekkie or it will no doubt calcify. I tried this place due to my regular accommodation in town being full - I shan't use it again.

rooms very clean, we had 2 rooms, the bathroom in one was tiny but brand new and fine. the 2nd room had a more spacious bathroom. Only 4 rooms at this hotel, over top of a small pub but as this closes at 11:00 pm, noise from the pub is not an issue. The hotel is on a side street in walking distance (2-3 kms?) of Kings Cross, not a lot of traffic but some noisy passersby in middle of night each night. Very convenient location to the tube/bus etc.<br />We had dinner one evening at pub, and breakfast provided all 3 mornings; food is excellent; and the staff is very accommodating for special requests. The lady who cooked the food, and who ran the establishment during the day was extremely pleasant and helpful. We were very appreciative of her efforts. We would stay here again.<br />

This was OK but the room was a rather strange layout (we were a couple but were given a three-bed room). The TV was pretty much impossible to watch from the bed. There was indeed quite a strong food smell in the hallways. Breakfast was OK, but a bit dismal in a breakfast room where most of the chairs were still up on the table and a smell of old beer. I probably wouldn't stay again.

Good quiet location for Kings Cross and St. Pancras. We were promptly shown to our room up two steepish, narrowish staircases. Room was very tidy and clean. Showeroom was spacious with slightly tired fittings ( the showerhead would not stay in the broken bracket) I asked to borrow a hair dryer for my wife, they promissed to bring one to the room, 30 minutes later it hadn't arrived, went out with wet hair! Excellent breakfast in the morning. When I came to checkout at 9.30am, I couldn't find a sole about, waited ten minutes then left leaving the key on the bar. Represents good value for money dispite some short-comings.

As I approached the hotel, my heart sank, I realised that the hotel had either employed the services of a very good photographer or used a little airbrushing! After the initial shock of the disappointing exterior and poky staircase leading to our room I was even more disappointed by the quality of furniture in the room - the desk, chair and 15" TV looked like they had come from the nearest charity shop. The bathroom didn't get any better - there was one temperature for the shower - boiling hot and as the showerhead bracket was broken I had to hold the showerhead with one hand whilst washing with the other. The best things about this hotel were the good quality loo roll and breakfast in bed. My boyfriend who booked this hotel is now on a very dodgy ground!!

We stayed 2 nights in The Harrison and had a very good time. They only have 4 rooms so it was very quiet in the hotel. The street is also not so busy, from the pub downstairs we didn't have much trouble but we didn't come home to early too ;) The room was spacious, the bed was good, the tv didn't work perfectly but was still okay. The bathroom was also nice, had a bath, the shower was a little too soft though. We wouldn't recommend the English or Vegeterian breakfast but you can also choose some fresh fruit woth yoghurt or cereal (or both) which was again very nice. We would definitely stay again.

We stayed for two nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The room was clean, the bed was comfy and the breakfast in bed was a really nice touch. The staff were very friendly and even offered to carry our bags to our room for us. The hotel is well situated and very handy, we were walking into Islington in the days and the city at night and neither was too far. My only criticism and it is trivial one, is that the corridor that leads up to he rooms could be a bit nicer, it was the first impression of the hotel and compared to the rest of the building was a bit shabby.<br />Having said that, it is only a observation and the only time we spent in the corridor was was walking to and fro our room, so this really isn't an issue. <br />The Harrison is a really nice place to stay and a very refreshing change from all the bulk standard chains out there. I will definitely be going back and would recommend others to d the same.

On arrival we were shown the 2 double rooms one with a bath the other with a shower. We chose the one with a shower. The carpet was stained and had an iron burn on it but the furniture and bed seemed adiquate. When I tried to go for a shower the water was cold and the shower head was broken. The assistant manager attempted to fix it but where the water had spilt on the floor she walked muddy footprints into the room and bathroom - she said she would clean and sort the shower while we were out... On arrival back to the room the muddy footprints were still there & the shower hadn't been fixed... My negitive points are it's noisy (not like central London) but I was woken 2/3 times in the night - bed was uncomfortable - hardly any sky channels - curtains don't have blackout lining - no hot water in room... Positive points lovely bar downstairs - staff were friendly - amazing breakfast! We only stayed 1 night instead of 2 and negoiated on the price as we didn't feel it was worth 80/90 a night...

For central London, the value for money was second to none.

Having read the previous reviews we were looking forward to staying here as a change from the chain hotels we usually stay in in London. We wanted a hotel close to St Pancras as we were catching Eurostar the following day.<br />The staff were all very helpful and pleasant but the room itself was very poor. We would have preferred a room with a bath but were told on arrival this room had not been made up. We had a room with a small shower room/toilet with a very small sink and a shower that alternated between boiling hot and cold water. As this is a pub, the street outside was full of smokers so it was impossible to open the bedroom windows without a stream of smoke entering the room.<br />But it is handy for the Eurostar terminal

The location is 10mins walk from Kings Cross and ideally placed for work/leisure in the centre of London. Staff were helpful without being OTT. Food was excellent though as a single female, it would have been nice to have a room service option, rather than having to sit alone to eat in a crowded and busy bar area. I satyed in room 4 and whilst the shower wasn't great and the plumbing quite noisy, the room itself was clean and tidy, with free wireless internet connection an added bonus. However, given that it is a pub, you would expect the noise to come from the bar area. This was not the case as the noise I experienced seemed to be coming from the kitchen area (loud dj music and shouting) below the room. I would stay here again if I was travelling with my partner or friends and was expecting to be in the bar, eating or out elsewhere, but would not recommend it to a single female traveller.

I read the reviews here before booking. I must admit that I was disapointed when I got to the place. from the outside it is a fairly unimposing pub, internally the bar has that sort mis-matched <br />furniture look that some think trendy, but it fails. <br />The barman was pleassant enough but not one for conversation - same for the rest of the staff. Selection of draughts beers was simple, but tasted good. I ate there on my first night as I couldn't be bothered going elsewhere. The food was tasty, but I thought that 13 for some mashed potatoes, 4 small slices of pork and some sweet peas was a bit on the high side.<br />But it was the rooms that really let it down. There is a steep and fairly narrow set of stairs to access upper floors and as soon as you hit them the smell of old kitchen oil is really bad. The kitchen is on the first floor and obviously the smell permeates from there. The stair carpet is soiled and the walls need painting. The room was small, very basically furnished with cheap furniture and needed decorating. The TV was a 14" screen that had two different hand controls - one operated the sound levels and the other changed the channels - if you could get it to work. The walls between rooms are really thin and sound of person in next room snoring was a bit of a nuisance. The shower/toilet looked as if it had been recently tiled etc and was clean but there was no heating in it and it was freezing coming out of the shower.<br />All in all, quite a depressing stay, certainly wont stay again and wouldn't recommend it to anyone. At 90 a night there are better options in the area<br />

This is, in fact a pub with rooms, therefore do not expect the normal niceties associated with an average priced hotel . The approach to the rooms is up two flights of stairs, which are quite shabby. The room I had for my two night stay was spacious and clean, but the shower room left something to be desired - not much more than 7 feet square with a very small shower cabinet. I am not large, but could barely fit in it with the door closed, a larger person might have a problem. the room was equipped with tea and coffee making facilities, but the used items were not replaced. I gave up trying to eat there on Friday night - it was impossible even to approach the bar through the crowd to order, let alone find a table to eat at. in a hotel proper, tables would have been reserved as priority for guests wishing to dine in. Finally, I had to wait 20 minutes before someone appeared so that I could check out. As a pub with rooms, the value was average to reasonable, but as a hotel, poor. Improvements need to be made, or the desciption changed to reflect what the establishment really is, simply a pub with four rooms to let.

I was drawn to this accommodation on account of previous reviews but was slightly disappointed by my experience. This is no more than a good B and B upstairs in a pub. Its good points are its location, which is a short walk from Kings Cross and close proximity to the city. The service was good throughout,- from check- in to the room which was basic and clean, to the excellent breakfast in the morning. This would suit an unfussy person on an overnight stay who wants good pub grub. If you want that little bit extra comfort this is not for you. I paid 99 for the night , even taking into account the London prices, I didn't feel this was good value for money.

On a negative side the pub area is a little dark and could do with a little more light - a bit of a problem for people with sight problems! Would definately come back again.

This wa s a lovely place to stay. If your going on Eurostar from St Pancras stn, thisd is an ideal place to stay. Hugh & Sophie who we met were really friendly and took customer service to a high level. The other member of staff we saw was also very friendly. Perfect location for a stay in London. considering that we were only a 5-10 min walk from Kings Cross Stn, the very busy Euston Road and Grays Inn Road it was very quiet you would never of guessed that you were actually in London. The food in the Gastro Pub was amazing and even though they had had a busy lunch tme rush they were able to accommodate us adequately. The atmosphere was great, with light jazz music playing, friendly locals and workers from the area. The accommodation would seem to be very basic in some eyes but it was minimalistic and perfect . The bed was comfy & clean, tea/coffee facility, TV/DVD combo and WIFI connection too. The washing facilities were clean and with special touches of individual soap/shampoo/shower gel/body lotion. Even though myself and friends only stayed for one night we would not hesitate to stay again and for even longer as we were made very welcome and it was perfect. There are a few other hotels/b&b in the area but they were close to the main roads and noisy and having looked into these and Harrisons I knew i had made the right booking. Ty Hugh. x

A nice pub with a few rooms. Reasonable size room with most amenities. Private access to bedrooms from the street. Staircase is a bit narrow but managable and rooms are up 2 flights. Breakfast was included and it was good. Unfortunately the Pub is private party only on Saturdays so I wish I had sampled the food and the atmosphere on Friday. Staff were friendly and efficient but also gave you space and privacy. Very close to Local mainline stations including eurostar, yet located in a local residential area. easy to find. In fact from Euston Rd travel up Judd Street (O'Neils is on the corner). 3rd Left, 1st Right at the local shops and church then follow harrison Street round teh corner and Pub is on your right. I would recommend staying here if you need a good location and a good price for a short stay in town.

I was also very disappointed to find that Room 4 had NO SHOWER only a bath which wasn't mentioned at time of booking.<br />The saving grace however is the pub downstairs, the food is superb, the service friendly and the atmosphere wonderful.

The Harrison is a short walk from Kings Cross rail station (no more than 5 minutes brisk walk). the accomodation consists of 4 rooms on the 2nd floor above the main pub. The staff are all really friendly and helpful (although service can be slightly slow at times - but this in no way detracts from the whole customer experience)<br />The rooms are good and clean (although the cream carpets in the bedrooms look like they could do with a clean). There is free wifi for customers. The very best thing about this place is the food - unsurprising as it is a Gastro pub, but even so, the food is excellent. Now a couple of words of warning:<br />The bedrooms are up 2 flights of stairs, please bear this in mind if you have difficulty with mobility.<br />One of the rooms only has a bath and no shower - not an issue unless you are in a hurry.<br />On the whole, this is probably the best hotel within walking distance of Kings Cross for the money - but book early as the 4 rooms get booked up quick!

We weren't at all disappointed - the staff were all very polite and the guy who showed us to our room went out of his way to print maps off for us/looked up bus routes etc so we could get where we wanted to be. The breakfast was amazing and the room was a really decent size twin. It was very basic but spotless and excellent value for money.

I thought this hotel needs more experience with hotel business. As it is few hotel room above the pub, the overall feeling of comfort is compromised. However the staff are generally very nice and helpful, facility and routine private party venue on Saturday night make the poor guest experience on staying in this hotel, unless you are the one partying and wants bed close by. Interesting experience was compromised by friendly staff working at the pub. If you want lively night in London, this is not bad place to be, interior of the room is modern, tidy and clean. Be aware of broken electric shower system, which I hope the owner has fixed it for the next customer.

Was consistently extremely hard and dry like ships biscuits. Could not cope with eating much of it. Was same every day despite asking for "lightly toasted" or "freshly lightly toasted" bread.

It seemed there was only one poor girl who turned up to work and when we got our breakfast delivered to the room (in 3 stages and more than a half hour late) it was cold, the orange juice was tepid and the glass was dirty, the tea was stewed and the whole thing was pretty inedible. And I'll eat pretty much anything. To cap it off, I asked for the password to use the internet and she told me she didn't know it, only the manager did and he "wasn't around".
