It was perfect for what we needed it: sleep after busy days in London. We stayed in a 18 bed dorm, so when the coming in and out of some of our dormmates got noisy, earplugs came in handy. The place is nice and clean, plus it comes with a free continental breakfast. It's only a 20 min tube ride... More

It is one of the cleanest hostels in London-- staff are efficient more than they are friendly. There is an attitude about some of the staff- I wrongly re-entered the place at 1am after staying there 3 nights before I was to stay another 3 nights having paid a deposit and booked again. the night staff saw me in common...

This hostel is very basic but is excellent value for what you pay. There is a very good kitchen area with great cooking facilities for those that don't have money to eat out all the time and those that are long term residents in the hostel. It is well ventelated in the summer and the kitchen/living and dorm rooms are... More

I stayed at this hostel in a single room which was only £22 a night - far cheaper than any of the nearby hotels or even b&bs. The room was small (literally just enough space for a single bed) but clean and the bed was comfy - but what more do you expect for £22 a night. Breakfast was included... More

I stayed in London Backpackers hostel in June 2011. with my friends, we booked a bunch of beds in 21-bed dorm and payed 12 pounds/person/night (a good price for June, time of Wimbledon, and Hyde park music concerts). All in all it is a good place if i consider all the pluses and minuses, but i''ll start from the beginning,... More

This hostel may be cheap, but you get what you pay for. Its about 35 mins out of Central London on the tube so what you save in money on the hostel, you pay for in Zone 1-4 tube tickets which are 7.15 pounds per day. The showers here are HORRIBLE! They are on a timer that runs out every... More

For only 10 pounds a night, that's a bargain. I've stayed in an 18 bed room (6 x 3 bunkbeds). Bathroom is great, it got's what you need. And drawings on the walls are very funny. I haven't stayed on breakfast, so I can't tell you anything about that. If you want to eat somewhere I recommend that restaurant next... More

We had a private double and stayed for two nights. Cons: If you need internet access, it's not reliable and inconvenient to sit in their common area. About 20 minutes on the tube to get to the center of London (depending on what time of day). Thin walls, but when we stayed everyone was fairly quiet. The front office people... More
