I didn't realize how nice the walks along Regent's Canal would be. Despite being in central London, you have a perfect escape right on your doorstep.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

King's Cross is a brilliant place to live. Coal Drops Yard is right on our doorstep with excellent restaurants, independent shops, and bars - we're spoiled for choice. Granary Square and the Regent's Canal offer lovely green spaces and waterside walks, perfect for unwinding. Transport couldn't be better: King's Cross and St Pancras give you access to practically anywhere in London and beyond. The building is adjacent to the train tracks, so you'll occasionally hear trains, but the double-glazed windows do a great job of keeping it to a minimum—it's rarely noticeable inside. As for Author's itself—the concierge team are genuinely wonderful. They remember your name, handle deliveries with care, and consistently go above and beyond to help with anything we need. It's made a real difference to our experience here and we're very grateful for them.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Having both King's Cross and St Pancras on your doorstep is even more useful than it looks on a map. Eurostar weekends become dangerously tempting.

King's Cross is a great place to live with key family-friendly advantages. Highlights for us: - Nursery Next Door: MEplace (which is excellent) - Low-Traffic Oasis: The main public areas (Granary Square, Coal Drops Yard) are beautifully designed and traffic-calmed, prioritising safe walking and cycling over cars. - With world-class amenities (e.g. Alma cafe / Waitrose / Everyman cinemas) and immediate access to the UK and Europe via its transport hub, King's Cross offers a perfect blend of calm community and global connectivity.

Living in King’s Cross has been great. The area feels vibrant and family-friendly, with plenty of cafés, restaurants and green spaces like Granary Square and Coal Drops Yard, which are ideal for quick outings with my 2-year-old. Transport links are excellent with multiple tube lines, national rail and Eurostar all nearby. Bus stop right outside and plenty of lime bikes around!

nothing that comes to mind. as someone who’s new to London, it would’ve been nice to see some food offerings in the kitchen from time to time, or maybe just some snacks.
