The Holiday Inn Kings Cross Hotel is housed in an imposing corner building with a modern red brick façade. The medium sized lobby has an attractively patterned marble floor and a large reception area with an unusual carved pediment above it. Also medium sized, the 405 guestrooms are soundproofed and feature an attractive pastel colour scheme and light wood furnishings, as well as distinctive bedspreads with a “checker board” pattern on them. The hotel offers a variety of dining options. Rasa, an Indian Restaurant, serves authentic Kerala dishes, all freshly prepared with the finest ingredients using traditional recipes. Carriages Brasserie is open throughout the day providing a range of refreshments from teas and coffees to full meals from a Continental-style menu. Charings bar, adjacent to the lobby, is an ideal place to relax and unwind with a speciality cocktail or just your favourite drink.
