Kings Cross
London sets the perfect stage for The Standard’s first European flagship and since opening in 2019, The Standard, London has firmly established itself as one of the capital’s most dynamic lifestyle hotels.
Set in King’s Cross within the hotel’s iconic brutalist building, The Standard brings its design-led, culture-driven, activation-heavy philosophy to the heart of the city. With 266 guestrooms ranging from snug Cosy Cores to terraced suites with outdoor bathtubs overlooking St Pancras Station. A constant programme of Happenings, from DJs and brunches to live music and cultural panels, the hotel has become both a neighbourhood fixture and an international destination.
Our Restaurants, Bars, and Rooftop terraces are legendary, and The Standard is known worldwide for nightlife and culturally relevant dining. Isla offers seasonal, produce-led menus on a serene garden terrace; Double Standard pairs American diner spirit with British pub classics; The Rooftop serves cocktails and hotdogs with panoramic London views; and Decimo brings bold Mexican Spanish cooking, mezcal, and skyline views via our iconic red-pill lift.
Together, these venues create a complex, high-volume, multi-outlet operation running from early morning through late night, welcoming hotel guests, London locals, and international visitors alike. In London, The Standard’s signature mix of playful, sophisticated, and unexpected hospitality continues to evolve, rooted firmly in the culture and energy of the city.
