Rooms to Rent in King's Cross, London

King's Cross is a central London district straddling the boroughs of Camden and Islington, transformed over the past two decades from a run down railway quarter into one of the capital's most talked about neighbourhoods. The land behind the stations is now home to Coal Drops Yard, a shopping and dining destination in restored Victorian coal warehouses, and Granary Square, whose fountains sit beside the campus of Central Saint Martins art school. Google and other major employers have moved in, and the towpaths of Regent's Canal give the area a surprising amount of waterside calm.

Transport is King's Cross's defining feature. King's Cross St Pancras is one of the busiest interchanges in the country, serving the Northern, Victoria, Piccadilly, Circle, Metropolitan and Hammersmith & City lines. Above ground, King's Cross and St Pancras International stations provide National Rail services across the country, Thameslink links north to south, and Eurostar trains to Paris and Brussels. Few places in London can match this range of connections, which puts almost anywhere within easy reach.

The area suits professionals, students and anyone who wants to live at the centre of things with unrivalled transport on the doorstep. Bloomsbury, Camden and Islington are all within walking distance, and the mix of new developments and restored heritage buildings gives King's Cross a distinctive feel. Dwelles lists rooms, flatshares and spare rooms across King's Cross, so you can find a place that fits your budget and the household you want to live in.
