St. Pancras and King's Cross are literally across the street from each other, separated only by Pancras Road, which is really a narrow side street. The Great Northern Hotel is wedged between King's Cross and the street. The main street serving all three, Euston Road, is out of the frame to the left.

Here's the St. Pancras Station frontage, which is really the Midland Hotel. This was a white elephant until fairly recently, as it originally had been built without plumbing, central heat, or other modern features, and had cost far too much money. When St. Pancras was rebuilt for the Eurostar, the hotel was also modernized and reopened.
