Princess Hotel: A Basic King's Cross Budget Stay

Princess Hotel is a budget hotel on Argyle Street in the King's Cross & Bloomsbury area, postcode WC1H. The setup is deliberately plain. Every room listed is a basic room with a shared bathroom, and the facilities on the listing amount to free WiFi, luggage storage and a 24 hour front desk. There is no private bathroom option among the listed room types. What the hotel offers instead is location: the nearest station is King's Cross St. Pancras Underground Station, a 6 minute walk away, in zone 1. Guests who want a low room rate in this part of Camden and are content with shared bathrooms are the ones this listing addresses. Anyone who needs an private bathroom in the room should look at other budget hotels on this site, since Princess Hotel does not list one.

Princess Hotel Rooms: Shared Bathroom Options

The listing shows three room types, all of them basic rooms with a shared bathroom. The Basic Single Room with Shared Bathroom suits one guest. The Basic Double Room with Shared Bathroom is the two person option. The Basic Five Room with Shared Bathroom sleeps a larger group on one booking, which is a rarer thing among budget hotels in this area and can work out cheaper per head than booking several singles (see Airbnb Versus Hotels). None of the three room types has its own bathroom, so the shared facilities are part of the deal with every booking here. Free WiFi is listed across the hotel, and luggage storage is available.

The address is 31 Argyle Street, London WC1H 8EP, in the King's Cross & Bloomsbury area of Camden. The nearest station is King's Cross St. Pancras Underground Station, which is a 6 minute walk from the hotel and sits in zone 1. That is the full set of location facts on the listing, and it is the one that matters most: a single station walk covers both Underground and national rail services from one hub. The postcode district WC1H places the hotel in the King's Cross & Bloomsbury area as listed. No other stations, walk times or transport details appear on the listing, so treat the 6 minute figure as the location fact to plan around.
