This hostel has a great location, it's a short walking distance from two underground stations and a 20 mins walk from Buckingham palace, Westminster and the Thames. Most of the staff are very friendly and have many helpful tips. Too bad some of the managers will get the sack for financial reasons, so we were told. Please mind that they... More

It's very clean and so much fun. The staff really makes an effort to make you feel like ur at home. I ended up with them having pizza and after that we had one massive snowfight. The next evening, just watched some movies and had a beer with another staff member+other backpackers. Great facilities, eg: the common room has a... More

Terrible choice! Couldn't sleep because there were some people playing with the fire alarm! No hot water on the showers, food went missing from the kitchen, showers were really dirty and disgusting, heating in rooms was not working... and... its not that cheap compared to others... if you are looking for constant party come to this hostel, if you just...

Beyond a doubt, the best thing about this hostel is the location. It is around the corner from Pimlico tube stop (Victoria line) and less than 10 minutes walk from Victoria station. Westminster (parliament buildings, Big Ben, Westminster Abbey) are about 20 mins. walk to to the south and Buckingham Palace about the same distance in the other direction. Really... More

I stayed at Astor Victoria Hostel for 5 nights and was happy with the hostel. The beds are comfortable, showers are great (hot water, clean and work well) and the staff friendly and happy to help you out. The hostel is also cleaned daily (bathrooms twice daily), your bed is made when you arrive and you get a top sheet... More

Staff is very helpful and location is good. they provide clean bedsheets and free breakfast (very simple but not bad, only problem is that you really have to hunt for a cup and spoons as there are not enough for all people staying there) but it really needs a renovation i would say. i stayed at the top floor (which...

The only good thing is the location. I have a little problem in my leg and I told them in advance, the answer was putting me in the 4th floor, so I just went up to sleep. The breakfast is from 8-10 (if you arrive at 9, you don´t have a free mug or spoon for you and sometimes even... More

It's my own fault for choosing this hostel for a third time, but with London prices being what they are, you pay for what you get however on my next visit to London, I will definitely not be staying here. The staff were terrible, in cliques with certain guests, and totally uninterested in serving guests (I understand it's a hostel,... More

I am very surprised to see all the negative comments about the staff here, and can only conclude that there have been staffing changes between other reviewers' visits and mine. I was very impressed with the dedication, friendliness, and kindness of everyone on the hostel staff, especially the manager, Matt, who went continually out of his way to make sure... More
