I was slightly worried about the hostel after reading reviews for this place, but let me tell you if you're looking for somewhere that is a roof over your head, has friendly staff and is close to pretty much everything from pubs to earls court, this place is fine. Will stop there again!

This hostel is worst place I've ever been to. We (a couple) booked 3 nights in a double-room with a - in my opinion - relatively expensive price of 160 pounds via booking.com. The location is quite good (5min walk to Earls Court), but that's about it with positive findings. The room we had was located right in the middle... More

I stayed for four nights recently and I would not reccomend it to anybody. There were MICE in the room and the noise from the traffic kept me awake all night. The fire doors were constantly propped open which is dangerous and against the law. Don't go.

I only stayed for one night inbetween moving flats. Was a bit concerned after reading all the bad reviews but I have to say for £20 in a 6 bed dorm it was alright! The breakfast was actually better than in some hostels in London i stayed in before. There was 2 kinds of cereals, croissants, toast, jams, milk, tea,... More

Next to the subway, easy to get anywhere in the city. Good and helpful staff. The room was small, dirty, noisy and couldn't leave it dark. Very weak breakfast, in the kitchen some things wasn´t working. The bath is small and old, but it was cleaned everyday. Good neighborhood. Just go if it´s cheap, don´t expect to get anything better... More

I have stayed in this hostel in June 2011 but will never forget my very first experience with bedbugs. I haven't realized what's going on until I found them in the bed and googled down in the net; Additionally even after asking for cleaning the room it was never done properly; would never come back there

The Court Hostel is situated right near the Earls Court station as well as a few pubs and take away shops.. This was the main positive.. They only had three showers with toilets in them, so in the morning if you needed to go to the toilet you were better off going down the street to Mc Donalds. Although it... More

The Court Hostel was a terrible experience. From the sketchy staff and their inability to accept credit cards to the grimy shared bathrooms to the completely uncomfortable mattresses, the Court Hostel managd to disappoint at every turn. It is truly a "budget" facility with no positive attributes save for its price. I stayed at the hostel for one night, and... More

Stayed one night due to an early flight the next morning. The Court is close to Earl's Court Station which is very convenient for travelling. The staff were great, really friendly and the owner was even there at 5am the next morning to offer me breakfast before I left for my flight. The rooms were acceptable, I slept in a... More
