Excellent location but even ear plugs could not drown out much of the traffic noise for me. Felt like I was sleeping on a freeway. Stayed in private room with family and room was OK and reasonable size for London, but bathroom was extremely small. Could not recommend overall. more

We stayed here as part of large group. This place can get quite busy, but they are well organised. Food isnt great, infact the Food supervisor, was a bit on the messy side of things.That could do with improvement. The staff at the front desk were really helpful, although the one male worker, has such limited English skill, you have... more

Nothing fancy, but comfortable rooms, exactly as described. Great location, just near the natural history museum. Bathrooms are tiny, but good hot showers. Very clean. more

I am a mature lady, I went there for few day for Conference in London. The place is very good, staff helpful, breakfast quality and attendency is excellend, Thus I am quite satisfied. I stayed in private room and it would be nice to low a bit the price. I consider it was a bit too expensive compare to share... more

We had several 12-bed rooms, which vary in size, so need to be looked at before assigning room. (The girls on our trip got the smaller room,... more

My companions and I had to sleep in a 12 person (mixed room). The room is equipped with two bathrooms (showers), 6 bunk beds and... more

We stayed at this hostel in a 4 bed dorm room for 4 nights in January. We did not enjoy our time here at all and really regretted coming here, right away. First off, it's not really a hostel, and lacks any sort of hostel atmosphere. My husband and I chose this hostel in hopes to put our feet up,... more

First time in London and first time hostel stay. Better than expected. Great location, clean rooms, but basic, very much like a college dorm. Furnitures and utensils courtesy of IKEA. Of course the negatives are the college kids, they made good amounts of noise during the night, just running up and down the hallways. Also, the elevator was small and... more

" I've been in this hotel with my four friends and we really enjoyed our stay there. The greatest thing about this hostel is the breakfast. It’s extremely big and you can eat everything you want. The range of food they have is more than good:-) It’s also only few meters from The Science and History museums witch are both... more
