Built as the world's first railway hotel in 1854, the GNH is now an 88-room boutique hotel in a classic style reminiscent of luxury sleeper trains. Exquisite artisanship is in evidence everywhere. And in addition to the two lively bars and a restaurant, there's a ‘pantry’ on every floor, from which you can help yourself to hot or cold drinks and snacks.
Rooms come in three categories: the small Couchette (room 305); Wainscot (room 515) with dark mahogany panelling; and the bright Cubitt (room 322) with views of King's Cross Station. Guests have access to a nearby gym with large swimming.
