Hostel in London near King's Cross station

London is a dizzying mix of world-class culture, fashion, food and frolics. It’s a city where two thousand years of history can stand side-by-side with shimmering new skyscrapers. Whoever you are, whatever you’re looking for, chances are you’ll find it here.

Generator London is a short stroll from Covent Garden, Regents Park and the British Museum. Located close to the transport hubs at King’s Cross and Euston, our London hotel is housed in an old police station just 5 minutes from Russell Square station. Designed to reflect the city’s street life, we’ve used reclaimed timber, exposed brickwork and hot-rolled black steel to give the hostel an on-trend, industrial feel.

Bold graphics, vibrant patterns and famous British cultural icons combine to capture London's cosmopolitan vibe. Make sure you catch the classic red bus that’s parked next to our bar’s dance floor every night. Don’t be late, London’s calling.

Things to do in London

All articles

  • Central London, where most of the popular tourist attractions are located, is generally well-policed and safe. Areas like Westminster, the City of London, and the West End have a strong police presence.

    London's public transport system, including the Underground (Tube), buses, and trains, is considered safe. However, be cautious of your belongings, especially during peak hours and in crowded areas. Popular nightlife areas like Soho, Shoreditch, and Camden are generally safe but can become rowdy, especially on weekends. It's advisable to stay aware of your surroundings and avoid confrontations.

    London has efficient emergency services. The emergency number is 999 or 112 for police, ambulance, and fire services. It's also a good idea to stay informed about the areas you're visiting. Some neighborhoods may be less safe, especially after dark, so seeking local advice or consulting travel advisories is wise.
