A boldly painted King's Cross hotel — the facade is meant to make a statement and it does — with the immersive Hokus Pokus alchemy bar in its basement and an unbeatable position for train travel. Book Hokus Pokus for the theatrical, potions-and-smoke cocktail experience (embrace the theatre or skip it), with simpler drinks available upstairs. Come in the evening for the bar, booking ahead because it is small. King's Cross and St Pancras International are steps away, with Coal Drops Yard's shops and restaurants nearby. It is character over restraint — a vivid, idiosyncratic stay perfectly placed for the Eurostar and the lines north.
