I've stayed at another LSE hall-of-residence in London before - Ramsay Hall, which is literally round the corner from Carr-Saunders Hall. Carr-Saunders is located at the corner of Fitzroy Street and Maple Street. It is almost under the Post Office - or BT - Tower, so it's impossible to lose your way! The handiest tube is Warren Street, about five... more

Yes the comfort is quite basic: bed, desk, mini-fridge (a nice surprise) and in room sink. But who needs more while in London.

For what its worth, this place was clean, relatively convenient, quiet and had a good cafeteria breakfast. If you can live with shared showers and bathing this is definitely a good budget minded place to stay. more

The Carr-Saunders Hall is a dorm that belongs to the London School of Economics. Very good value. We paid 23 pounds pp in August and had a private twin room. Large, bright rooms - rare in London. Friendly staff. We arrived very early - around 11am. We planned on leaving our luggage at the front desk, but instead they checked... more
