It is in zone 2 which is a bit far. But if your campus is at Guys then its just one overground station away.

Location - Based in New Cross Gate, one train stop away from London Bridge - easily accessible. Area has had crime issues in the past so should be careful. Facilities- 24 hour security so feels very safe within building. Reception can help with any issues. Laundry room for washing at an affordable price. Common room with TV, pool table, piano and board games - great social space. Room- decent sized ensuite single room. Has a large table. Large kitchen shared with three other students, all appliances provided and table. Wardrobe is quite small.

good location with nearby supermarkets, restaurants and off-licenses. Friendly staff. The accommodation itself is nice with all you could possibly need, including a new laundry room, big kitchens, and a nice communal area.

Rooms are quite small and bathrooms are wet rooms which flood and take a long time to dry. There is a common room however it is rarely used as there is not much to do in there. It’s is very expensive (£160 a week) for the size room that you get, a lot of my friends are different universities get much larger rooms for this price or pay less for a room of the same size I have.

Ewen Henderson court is a good place to live as a first year. I've meet some of my closest friends staying here. I think Ewen Henderson is one of the most social accomadations of Kings and I have enjoyed many of the social activities that have been organized by Ewen hednerson staff. The rooms are a fairly decent size however the bathrooms/ensuiyts are a completely different story. If the ensuite was better than I would definitely recommend Ewen Henderson for the price I am paying however I have had so many problems regarding matinence of the overall flat as have many others I know.

I was told this was one of the "further out" halls at King's College, but New Cross is zone 2 and only took about 45 mins by bus straight to uni (quicker by train). In comparison to several friends' experiences at other kcl halls, this was very social, had a good common area that people would hang out in. Occasional WiFi and fire alarm issues but not that often (especially in comparison to Julian Markham). Overall an enjoyable experience, we all had ensuite bathrooms, big kitchens, and it was great to meet people. Like most halls in London, it was quite a bit more expensive than living in a student house, but I'm glad I spent my first year there and didn't have to worry about bills, agency fees etc.

The halls look very social and they are located in a well connected part of central London. There is a good mix of students in the halls and everyone gets along really well. Each room is well maintained and the rooms are up to date with doubles , desks , storage spaces and an ensuite bathroom. Overall the halls are very good and I would love to love hear next year

The location is bad as there is usually crimes going around the area. Room is bad at most times from leaking, to cold water only etc.

it is far from central london, 40 minutes if you either by bus or train. They do have a train station right next door. Most people in this accomodation are nurses.

Good halls, not the best for location - can’t just walk to uni, but there are amazing transport links and if you cycle there is a great bike storage and it is easy to cycle to uni. Rooms are great, good size and good value
