I stayed here with my boyfriend, and we were a little apprehensive when we read the negative reviews about the place. Luckily for us we found out that most of the negative feedback was over exaggerated. I think a lot of it depends on your expectations and understanding what a hostel is. I had read a review saying that the... More

This hotel is located about two blocks from Hammersmith station where three metro lines converge. There is also a bus station attached to the subway station so you are basically connected to pretty much all of london. We had a private two-bede room... the size of a closet, but very clean, with good heating and EXCELLENT beds. Bathrooms and toilets... More

We needed a room for 1 night only and didn't check in until late so we opted for cheap and cheerful. The accommodation is more like a hostel but I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of the rooms which all looked newly refurbished. We booked a double room but I have to say the bed was not big enough... More

Only few minutes walk from Hammersmith underground station. It takes about 10 minutes to Piccadilly circus by tube, so really close! The room was really clean and the bed was comfortable. Silent area, so I also got a good sleep there! Big plus for a fridge in the room!

I have been to other hostels but I did not feel safe at Abercorn. There were a lot of crazy people around at night and it is located in a dark alleyway. The room was okay, if a little shabby and had a fridge. The shower facilities nearest to us were really very awful with a single sink and no... More

We stayed here for 1 night in late October and were very pleased. We originally booked a room with shared facilities but were upgraded upon arrival to an ensuite room for no extra cost! Perfect start! Rooms were quite small but quiet and perfect for one night! The decor was very modern and our room looked as though it had... More

We stayed five nights from 1 to 7 January. It's a quiet location, near buses, tube station and shopping area. It's close enough to West End with various lines running and relatively cheap for double room. It also has facilities - kitchen equipped with various gadgets, and fridges in the room, which makes it possible to cook your own food... More

We stayed for 4 nights just before Christmas. We wanted something basic and nearby the main attractions of London. We were pleasantly surprised with Abercorn! The location was perfect: close enough to downtown to not spend long on the tube, but far enough away that we weren't spending an arm and a leg on the hostel. We were really pleased... More

This is the second time I've stayed. I'm just updating to say that the refurbishment, that was causing some building work, has now finished (sep 2012). I asked for a quiet room and was given an immaculate double but not charged extra. Apart from that, it was as good as the first time I stayed, and I definitely recommend it.
