Well... Hilton Euston is about as expected. Upgraded room (227), total room size looks to be about 27x12ft. Upgrade positioned me for no breakfast, but they did offer a bottle of wine (41% gone at this juncture). Somewhat makes up for no lounge.

Walk from Euston Square tube station was not bad, though it was sprinkling. About the distance you walk from Kensington Hilton to Sheperds Bush, with a better view. Seems to be a restaurant around the corner I will try shortly.

All in all (thus far) medium-ochre... would go to Kensington over Euston if I had to make a call this moment. Both pale in comparison to the Paddington room I had last night, but Paddington is rarely as cheap as either the Kensington or Euston. Kensington would win based primarily upon lounge access... with that taking some preference over proximity to city center in my opinion.

Ok, maybe that bottle is actually 53% empty....
