From Heathrow Airport
By rail and tube
London Underground (the tube) connects Heathrow Airport directly with central London. This is the cheapest and most convenient way to travel as long as you don't have too much luggage.
For Connaught Hall, take the Piccadilly line to Russell Square (approximately 55 minutes).
A more expensive, but perhaps faster option is the Heathrow Express which runs every 15 minutes to and from Paddington Station in central London. The journey time is about 15 minutes. From Paddington take the tube - Circle line to Euston Square (approximately 10 minutes) or hop in a black cab (taxi).
