Explore the local area.

Prime Backpackers, is located in Angel, which is a β€˜quiet’ neighbourhood nestled between King’s Cross and Shoreditch. While it is still central London, it feels a bit more homey, and less touristy than other areas of London. It offers the perfect balance of buzzing city life, combined with a more local perspective of London. A place where real Londoners live.
