About Howard Winchester Hotel
Step into a room at the Howard Winchester Hotel and you'll find clean, comfortable quarters kitted out with a decent shower and a fan for warmer nights, though the rooms themselves run on the compact side and there's no air conditioning to rely on. Drinks are provided in the room, and with 48 rooms across the building, it keeps a manageable, personal feel rather than a sprawling one.
Downstairs there's a restaurant and bar for meals and drinks on site, breakfast is available, and a snack bar covers anything in between. A garden offers a bit of outdoor space, there's a lift for getting between floors, free WiFi throughout, and luggage storage for early arrivals or late departures. Staff are consistently described as helpful and easy to deal with, which goes some way to making up for the smaller room sizes.
Set at 9 Argyle Square in London, the hotel is well placed for King's Cross and St Pancras stations, making it a practical base for onward travel. Free on-site parking is available, and the surrounding area has pubs, restaurants and other eateries within easy reach, along with entertainment nearby for evenings out.
What guests say
We enjoyed our stay at this hotel over the weekend. Perfect location with being really close to King’s Cross, we had no issues with outside noise during the night. Provided a fan as it does get quite warm in the room. Room & bathroom were clean. Staff were very friendly and welcoming :) Would definitely stay again!

Great location for Eurostar, underground and airport trains. Very friendly staff. Hotel very clean with comfortable beds. Proper hairdryer in the room. No AC but a very good fan was provided, which was very welcome in the recent heatwave. Would definitely stay here again.

Very close to King's Cross train station and reasonably priced for a last minute booking (on the day). Room was spacious and clean, hotel slippers and shower soaps provided. However, WiFi did not reach the room I was in but otherwise a very pleasant stay.

One of the best affordable hotels I've stayed in for a short trip to London! My room was very small and due to the heatwave it was very hot (no AC) but the room itself was nice, there was a powerful fan in my room, the bathroom was surprisingly big and the staff was incredibly nice. It's a very short walk from King's Cross, so situated perfectly. I'll be coming back!!
