Astor Hyde Park was a fantastic hostel in London. For London, the price was very competitive, and well worth the money. The rooms were kept very clean, the lockers were spacious (but quite noisy - hard not to disturb others!). Great communal area with strong wifi signal (not so strong in the rooms though!). The first night people werent very... More

Last year I had to stay at this place because we made a trip to London with our English class (from Germany), and this was the cheapest hostel our teacher could find. In retrospect I can say that I would have loved to pay three times the price if I had stayed at a better place. Obviously, one cannot expect... More

Stayed in a 6 bed shared room with ensuite bathroom. We had been back packing through Europe for 2 months and had stayed in a lot of hostels, and this is one of my least favorite. Our floor was on the 6th floor, and no lift meant climbing the stairs every time. Our bathroom was always flooded from the shower,... More

Visited last December 2012 on a stop over from Wales to Bournemouth. Easy check-in, friendly staff, great big common area with good wi-fi. Beds are comfortable enough but I wish there were more bathroom cubicles. Heating was fairly alright. I didn't take the free breakfast but the kitchen/dining area is pretty nice and lots of people hang out there at... More

I stayed in this Hostel from March 16th for 6 nights, with 5 other friends. The location was ideal. The surrounding area is extremely pleasant, and felt really safe. The Hostel is clean, tidy and very good value for money. We were also provided with breakfast every morning. It was basic - cereal and toast - however that was all... More

The breakfast was nice, the location is into a safe area, you have the metro... More

Me and my girlfriend were staying at the 12 bed room. The room was incredibly clean and had tons of light coming in through a glass ceiling, which was great to not oversleep in the morning. The bathroom in my room was always tidy (except for when other guests would use it before me and fill the whole thing with... More

Stayed there when first moved to london while job hunting. It was terrible. The bathrooms were so dirty I had a wear shoes because the floor would turn my socks black with dirt. When I checked into my 6 bed room, the window was open and I had to climb up on the counter to reach it. I stayed on... More

The staff here was so helpful, at all times of the day and night, and were always willing to help us find a metro station, pick an activity or try and get us discounts on things. They were all extremely nice and seemed genuinely happy to help us whenever we needed assistance. The location is literally right next to Hyde... More
