Hotel in London for two nights leaving at Kings Cross safe and central

Hi
We are looking for a reasonable well located hotel for two nights. We will be coming in from Heathrow and leaving from Kings Cross. Any suggestions for a safe area for three women that love to walk.
Thanks!

Not sure what you consider reasonable, but there are 2 Premier Inn hotels within a couple of blocks of Kings Cross. We stayed at the PI St Pancras, 2 blocks up Euston Rd and across from the British Library.

I also stayed in the St Pancreas Premier Inn. It's close to grocery stores and the British Library/Bloomsbury and a couple pubs. You should be safe there of course take precautions.

Either the Premier Inn London St Pancras or the Premier Inn Kings Cross would be fine.

The close by Regents Canal tow path provides a lovely walk. I’d start at Granary Square and follow the path to Camden Lock. Interesting market and neighborhood to explore.

I've stayed at the Premier Inn St. Pancras twice.

Directly across the street from the British Library and a five minute walk to Kings Cross.

However. I'm not sure if the hotel has three bedded rooms.

I wouldn't say that the room I had at the Megaro was small or dark, but I'll most certainly agree that the bed was the single most comfortable hotel bed that I have ever slept in.

Enjoyed sleeping little bit and breakfast in the hotel restaurant and the very short walk to Kings Cross for my 11am train to Edinburgh.

Hello from Wisconsin,
Premier Inn St. Pancras. Clean, Quiet, Safe. Not romantic in the least. A modern hotel. It is real close to King's Cross RR station. Across the street is the British Library and it has a museum that that has o display many historic items. A Magna Carta, some Beatles' scribbles, The Forest Charter, Fleming's notes upon discovering penicillin, The Anglo-Saxon Chronicles... And it is free. It is really worth going into.

Plus, for lunch or later, nearby are two really nice pubs, Mabel's Tavern and the Skinner's Arm. The Euston Flyer...don't go there. Fake, fake, fake.

I would suggest the Alhambra Hotel , a very nice B&B on Argyle in Kings Cross. The entrance to the Tube is ca. 2mins. or less. from the Alhambra, stayed here several times.
