The California is not your usual. A quiet, comfortable, and cosy base with buzzing King’s Cross on the doorstep, our hotel is made of London townhouses stitched together, and decorated with a patchwork of eclectic styles.
You’re always welcome here
Each of our 61 rooms is different, and we have a range of sizes to suit all needs.
Find your perfect fit
Refuel and relax at our bar and lounge, where you can grab a snack or warm pastry (baked freshly every day), wind down with a stiff drink, work away on your laptop, or step outside for a summer’s evening on the terrace.

Explore London
Visiting London for the first time? We know the feeling: excitement, curiosity, maybe a little overwhelmed. The good news? You don't need to navigate it alone.
Not every London stay needs to be high stress - sometimes, the best kind of escape is simple, stylish, and stress-free
There’s something truly special about The California—a boutique hotel tucked just steps away from King’s Cross—but don’t expect anything cookie-cutter.
Spring in London is a magical time. As the city shakes off the winter chill, the parks bloom with fresh colours, the cafés set up their outdoor seating, and the sunshine lingers a little longer each day
