It is close to Kings cross station, good WiFi, comfortable bed, friendly staffs and free luggage room.

The location is great, I’ve been there twice and it’s perfect for a short stay.

Teresa, United States of America

Best hostel in that area compared to the others in the same price segment.

Mario, Gibraltar

Place is great value. It was regularly cleaned, and the fact you can store your luggage for free is REALLY a plus. Make sure to have a small padlock though. If you're travelling on a budget, take the 4£ breakfast offer. London is quite an expensive city and you won't find anything anywhere near this price elsewhere.

An Inside Look at Clink261 Hostel

Clink261 is a compact hostel in the heart of King's Cross. As a former Student Union, the hostel has a really friendly vibe and is a great place to come back to after a day of city exploration. The lounge area, with its comfortable sofas, is the perfect place to kick back and relax with other travellers. The well-equipped self-catering kitchen has everything you need to cook up a budget friendly dinner (open for guest use after 12.30pm) and reception staff will be happy to help you discover cool things to do around the city. You can also get discounts on tours and tickets to London's best attractions. ClashBAR, at our nearby hostel Clink78, is also open to Clink261 guests. It's a real social hub and a great place to grab a drink, listen to live music or dance the night away to one of our resident DJs.

Noise cancelling between walls can be improved as I can hear some people talking in the other room and also when they are using hair dryer.
the location is good and very easy to access. Just a few minutes walks from the Kingscross station. Lots of choices of food around as well.

“Great location”

I really did not enjoy the bed. I am very small, yet I hit my head every time I sat on it as I was staying on the lower bed. The walls around the bed also weren't the cleaniest, but that was quite expected. It was really cold in the bathrooms and sometimes the hot water run out. However I would not mind staying there again in the future.
Really great location, I appreciated the distance from King's Cross. There was also no noise from the streets. Staff at the reception was also nice and friendly. Almost no queues for a shower or toilet, even though not every floor had bathrooms for both genders.
