Wow, thanks for the recommendations everyone!
As for the date I'll be staying in London, it's Oct.12, departing the following morning (13)

You could look at the Tune Hotel King's Cross, which is pretty close by, and gets great reviews. There's also the quirky Goodenough Club.
How far in advance are you booking? There's been some great deals on HotelTonight recently, although I suspect these will peter out as peak tourist season approaches...
Well, I'd like to book in sooner than later, but since it's not until Oct, I can afford to wait. I'm just scared of prices going up!
LOL @ Goodenough. Does look good but the prices I'm seeing are in £££ and therfore a LOT higher than I'd like to pay.

Sorry, I have no clue where those are. lol
I thought they only other stop was in London?

There is something special about departing from St Pancras, however...
I thought being by the Westfield Mall was too far and that it would require multiple subway changes...
Obviously I'm wrong then so I'll look into it.
But I thought it was just he regular subway that runs in London? Well and the overground too?
Thanks again everyone!
