Why we recommend it

Generator London is a large hostel on Tavistock Place in Bloomsbury, a short walk from King's Cross, St Pancras and Euston, which makes it practical for travellers arriving by Eurostar or rail. It offers shared dorms and private rooms at budget prices, with a social bar and communal spaces that suit solo travellers and groups.

The British Museum, Russell Square and the Regent's Canal at King's Cross are all easy walks, and Russell Square station is around the corner. Booking directly on the official website currently gives a 10% discount, and prices can vary with exchange rates. If you prefer to stay outside the centre, the same company also runs a hostel in Greenwich. Expect a busy, youthful atmosphere rather than quiet seclusion.
