Things to Know
The Abomnes family has run the Wardonia for over 45 years. The hotel is a budget option with a touch of class. There is no elevator for the steep, winding stairs, and there is no air-conditioning, although fans are provided. The hotel lobby highlights its traditional side with original carved ceilings, tufted leather seating, and old-fashioned windows. University College Hospital is a 15-minute walk. Coal Drops Yard (just off Granary Square) is a 5-minute walk from the hotel.
“This property's proximity to Kings Cross/St Pancras is its strongest suit. I noted concerns about the condition of rooms and inconsistent service. Budget travelers may accept the trade-offs for the location alone, but be prepared for basic accommodations.”
