Entertainment all the way. This station is always busy whatever time of year it is. There are two pianos that are situated on the concourse enabling the general public to show their talent. Some people are very good and attract a lot of passing people. A clever idea that keeps many entertained.

A fantastic historical train station which in its self is a attraction.
Theres always some thing to see and has many shops, bars and places to buy while waiting for your train.
Euro star and many connecting routes are there as well as most underground lines.
Located right in central london and close to euston and next to kings cross area which has had a massive investment and is now a really nice area.

St Pancras International is a great Train Station.
Firstly, the building itself is well preserved and extremely well maintained from the outside and inside. Plus it is beautiful with its roof windows on the first floor
Secondly, there a lot of shops and places to be while waiting for your train. Which makes your life easy
It is the also the train station that gives access to the international - haha British people are always funny when they mention their closest European countries as international , they still in EU at the time of the review - which are Netherlands, Belgium, and DISNEYLAND by train
This train is Eurostar: if Eurostar is really messy and highly unpredictable and somehow unpleasant, it is the fastest way to travel to close Europe. Still convenient despite drawbacks such as trains cancellations and various hysterical delays

Lovely Victorian gothic station that has incorporated the old and the modern in its architecture over time... All the necessary facilities you would expect from a station of this size and importance, good variety of shop's, cafe's and restaurant's... A vast improvement from the old St Pancras and like I said earlier without destroying the original beauty!!

Really nice kept train station. Make sure you come a lot early to catch train to euro star. Very much on time. Few shops inside too to eat and buy things. Can get very busy depending on train timings. Opposite Kings Cross Station which is the tfl underground. Come here for international trains. Lots of nice shops outside too, don't need ticket here.

Its a huge train station with at least 6 different underground lines coming through it. The internation section is a newer part but it's built to look like an old station which is nice. The staff are all friendly, and even though we arrived with only a few minutes before our train was scheduled to depart they rushed us through security and passport checks and we made our train to Paris.

The piano was being played when we got back which was a nice surprise.

Great food and service on train, but very horrible train manager (Uk side) I was traveling to France .


It is a shame that big companies like Eurostar allow people like that working for them and do not suggest any option. On that busy Holliday they do employ only 5 people for assistance based on first came first served. completely ridiculous. And for being a very regular traveller i can tell how bad I feel for the money I spend on each ticket. May think twice next time before booking.

Station as you only see in movies but it's real! Get the Eurostar that connects Paris to London by way of the Channel! Travel takes just over 2 hours. On arrival you can already enjoy the beauty of the station !!!!

Clean and quiet, I went fairly early in the morning, so there was a not a soul in sight, stores were closed and everything was fresh and ready for the morning crowd, it feels like an airport and there is a lot of stores and things to look at here for a departure or arrival, I was heading to France. The design and style is nice for talking pictures and leaves a good impact, being that is was nearly empty, I had an easy time taking pictures and exploring the area.

All the international European trains (like Euro Star) starts and ends here. The station is also connected via London Underground (Metro) and is very convenient to reach here. If your leaving UK you shall have to undergo immigration so keep your passports with you (if your a tourist or a non EU resident).

Great place. Shops are just as expensive as one might expect, and although I never used the international railway services as of yet, they seem alright from an outside view.

Its integration with both the national railway system and the underground infrastructure in London is spot on.

Hard to get around, but harder to not find the way out, especially thanks to the very helpful staff.

I got confused a number of times between this and Kings cross, however, leaving many tourist friends disappointed.

If you guys read this, I'm sorry, alright??

Beautiful railway station that knows how to combine the historical charm of an ancient structure with the most modern technology of the electric train.
Full of shops, tourists and eateries, it allows you to contemplate the hectic modern life in a somewhat outdated setting.

A great transport hub with Eurostar. Well designed and well signed so it's easy to find exits and upper area if you pay attention and know what you are looking for. Upper floor is much quieter if you just want coffee and are working whilst whilst you wait for a train. Lots of miniature shops of big stores like John Lewis. Good variety of attractive quality shops. I travel between London and Paris and it's a beautiful place to arrive at compared to Paris's Gare du Nord.

One of the international train stations in the UK which situated right in the middle of London close to King s Cross Station. The best part of the station is the Victorian structure which almost intact. Many shops and amenities inside the station ranging from food store to jewellery, bakery, cosmetics, medicine, toys and many more. British library is at one side of the station and king s cross on other. The Granery square is about 5 minutes away from st Pancras international.

Took my first overseas trip via Eurostar. As a person who was apprehensive about traveling (to Brussels) the train was a god send. So so comfortable I was able to sleep. Not a long wait for the train with a selection of over priced snacks and drinks (take your own). Good baggage space. Not a bumpy ride or in anyway like a normal inner city train.

Get your tickets early for the best deal. Manage to score a really good deal on business tickets over to Paris and the journey was amazing. Much roomier seats compared to economy class and they serve with wine. Perhaps not the most gourmet meal but pretty decent on the train!

The station has grand architecture that's definitely worth admiring, and the environment inside is clean and enjoyable. The information points are helpful for customers who are new to the station, and it is well-staffed. The restrooms are modern, free, and usually quite clean. One issue is that they tend to become very overcrowded at peak times.

The high roof of the station means that fumes from diesel trains on the raised Midland Mainline platforms do not pollute the station concourse, unlike in some stations.

The station could improve on not having so many beggars around, particularly late at night, as many of them are quite aggressive and could intimidate some passengers.

I'd also advise passengers to take into account the long walks between certain platforms and entrances to avoid missing any trains.

Loved this train station! Loved the Eurostar train from London to Paris! Second class includes a meal with desert and wine! Way better than airport. Stores inside are stock with goodies and souvenirs. plus you get your passport stamped with their train logo

The station has been refurbished to a excellent standard. The design has truly been thought about and there are lots of little (and big) touches added to it. I particularly love all the quotations scattered about. It raises my spirits whenever I use this station. PS staff are very helpful as well.

St. Pancras Station is a railway station located in the north of London, in the Camden district, between the building of the new British Library to the west and the King's Cross station to the east.

From here you take the train to Paris

Saint Pancras International is a relatively comfortable train station. The passport and security checks are pretty efficient. There seems to be a limited and insufficient number of seats in the waiting area. There are a few places to eat, which is convenient.

I have been here a couple of times now and it is a very well run train station. There are many shops and cafes to grab something to eat for the trip. If catching Eurostar, the security is fast and there's no need to get to the station too early.

It's a huge station, but the directions between various interchanges are clearly marked. I have switched between the Underground/National Rail/Eurostar a few times, and never encountered any difficulties whatsoever. They have also put a piano in the Eurostar Concourse (which I must say is beautifully designed) and as I walked by a lady was playing it melodiously. To add to it, there are lots of shops where you could grab a bite, get a cuppa and indulge in some retail therapy (if that's your thing).

St Pancras International, possibly my favorite London railway station. Modernized historic building, light and airy even in the winter or at night. A genuine transport hub with connections to the tube. A quality hotel and good retail options on site. Bars and fast food of a pretty good standard for a mainline station. International trains to Europe and a fantastic (if pricey) service to Kent with fast modern trains.

Station very nice nice and convenient to take the eurostar. There are many checkpoints for baggage, which makes boarding quite fluid.

Only outlets in the boarding area did not seem to work when I plugged in my phone.

The King's Cross / St Pancras underground station in the train station makes it very convenient to travel to London upon arrival.

It's a train station of real quality and expense I use it all the time to travel from Yorkshire to London. You can not help been impressed with the architecture and brilliant engineering work. The station went through a major refurbishment some year ago to the highest standards and quality. The lower level is full of top quality shop and a number of decent restaurant's to choose from. With it been the gate way to Europe and the North of England it's bussy most days. All that said it's a train station thefore it doesn't get 5 stars.
