Great stay, incredibly dog friendly

We had a wonderful stay at The Standard. We particularly loved how dog friendly it was. Our room was a cosy room with no windows which may not suit everyone but was perfect for us because it meant it was pretty sound insulated which was ideal for our dog who doesn't like too many noises. They provided a dog bed, dog bowls as well as treats, all included in the cost of our room which was so lovely considering at other hotels we've stayed at the hotels charge us an additional cleaning fee but don't offer anything for our dog. We'll definitely be back to stay here if we need a place to stay in London. Highly recommend.

Disliked: Amenities
I do not usually provided reviews however this is at best an average hotel close to kings cross.... In my opinion... however make your own mind up if you choose to stay there It does not have anything like a five star feel to it It is a little tired and dated.. and in my view trying to be something it isn't I probably wouldn't have left a review but this hotel took an unauthorised 5% 'gratuity' that is not listed on expedia.. I received an email later describing as optional....

Really lovely large room. Rates were fairly high for this time of year, but felt like good value. Staff always friendly and helpful - same goes for the main restaurant. Would be amazing if there was at least a sauna / steam room. Only down side is there is almost always a wait at reception, frequently busy in a fairly tight space. Credit card was charged weeks after departure for incidentals, no invoice sent.

Wonderful spot

Just a wonderful hotel close to the train station which made it easy getting off the train from Paris. Incredible staff and the rooftop bar is one of the highlights of London. We loved our stay highly recommend it. The rooms and amenities were fabulous.

Horrible experience

After midnight, a housekeeping staff member was knocking at our door. We asked him to leave, but he entered our room anyway. I was partially undressed, wearing only a towel. He saw me and still continued talking to me, insisting that the room shouldn’t be occupied. I had to ask him again to leave. It was a terrible experience. The next day, when I presented my complaint, the only compensation offered was a 50% discount on the £44.00 breakfast. The manager seemed very unsympathetic to this horrible experience.
