Prime Backpackers Angel

333 City Road

Description

Prime Backpackers Angel is situated in a beautiful historic building in a great location in trendy Islington. Free high speed WiFi in all areas, a magnificent fully equipped kitchen, a chill-out lounge to while away the hours and make new best friends, and comfortable beds to get a good night’s sleep. There is no bar on site, so you can sample the many local pubs or bring your own booze back. We host lots of fun events, movie nights, games evenings and delicious dinners which all can enjoy - to name a few.

Our property is just moments from the bars, restaurants and nightlife of Upper Street and Shoreditch, and 150 metres from Angel tube station which gets you to all of the best parts of London in minutes. Islington is a vibrant part of London. On the edge of the City business district, and yet still a traditional local community. It has been the home to reformists for centuries, so behind that elegant facade lies the beating heart of change. As well as being the home to the mighty Arsenal FC, Islington is home to many local attractions that will let you see a different side of London than the normal tourist haunts.

We offer free tea and coffee all day, a free computer, TV, board games, book exchange, hairdryers, travel advice, and towel hire. Feel safe at Prime Angel with 24 hour security and CCTV. We have lockers (bring your own padlock) and luggage storage on the day of arrival and departure.
