We stayed 3 nights at the Astor Kensington. The price was very fair, approx. 15€/night in a 8-bed-room. The breakfast is continental and very simple. The bathrooms are simple but clean. It is close to Gloucester Road Underground Station, so you can easily get where ever you want in London. We liked it and would stay there again. The people... more

To start, the entrance to the hostel is rather shabby - possibly something you would find in the centre of Bangkok? We used the luggage room for a couple of hours before checking in - its a mess and we left unsure if we would ever see our belongings again! We had booked the double ensuite - room 15. On... more

The location isn't far from many attractions but the road itself the hostel is located on is unappealing. The hostel is rundown, our room barely... more

Suitable if you don't mind living in filth, risking bedbugs, risking having your stuff stolen and not getting any sleep. Everyone else - stay somewhere else. I was willing to pay the cancellation fee NOT to stay in this place. It was filthy and nothing seemed to be in working order and there were notes on the wall from people... more
