6/10 Okay
"Hotel was conveniently located close to Kings Cross and staff helpful. The room however was the size of a postage stamp and felt very claustrophobic. Value for money 4 out of 10, £195 for 1 night for a tiny room with no window and £3 surcharge to look after my bag for the day was not great!"

Which area of Kingston Upon Thames is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For solo travellers seeking cheap hotels in Kingston Upon Thames, the areas around the town centre and Norbiton offer the best value without compromising on accessibility. These locations provide a good mix of budget-friendly accommodation options and excellent transport links.

The town centre itself, particularly slightly away from the main shopping streets, features several affordable hotels and guesthouses.

Norbiton, a short distance east of the town centre, is another excellent choice. It has its own train station, making travel convenient, and often presents more competitive hotel rates than the immediate town centre.
When is the most affordable time to visit Kingston Upon Thames?
The most affordable time to visit Kingston Upon Thames is typically during the off-peak seasons, specifically late autumn (November) and late winter (January to February). During these months, demand for accommodation and flights tends to be lower, leading to better deals.

For solo travellers, visiting at these times means fewer crowds at popular attractions like Hampton Court Palace, allowing for a more relaxed experience. Many local shops and eateries might also run special offers to attract customers during the quieter periods. While the weather can be a bit chilly, bundling up allows you to enjoy riverside walks along the Thames or explore the historic market without the peak season hustle and bustle.

Families might find January and February particularly appealing for savings, especially if school holidays can be avoided. Accommodation prices drop, and there are still plenty of indoor activities, such as exploring the Kingston Museum or catching a show at the Rose Theatre, which often have more availability during these times.
