The museum is close to King's Cross and St. Pancras Stations, in an area which is home to a large number of hotels
There are hotels for everyone ranging from the business executive to the backpacker. Customers who have booked an event at the museum can ask for a list of hotels in the area and we will be happy to offer our local knowledge to help.
