I stayed in a 22-bed dorm room which was totally fine regarding cleanliness and room size. The people were very nice (personnel and other guests). The bathrooms and toilets were a little dirty but totally fine for a hostel. The location was good: close to pubs, the london bridge underground station and a bus stop right in front of the... More

This accomodation is quite good regarding location and value for money. Close to transportation, restaurants, night shops and pubs. It has is own restaurant (I reccomend the burgers!) and pub, nice enough to have some beers. Staff is ok though a little disorganised and annoying if you don't sleep on your asigned bed. No need to worry about the cleanliness... More

Naturally, you'll have to expect hostel amenities but the upside is hostel prices and location. This place stood out for us primarily because of its location in Southwark. Easy access to everything and not a far from London's major tourist sites. Very close to London Bridge station as well if you're planning on taking the train anywhere else. Beware that... More

St. Christopher's employs poorly trained people that don't know the area. Also, there were really only two employs that I met during my 4 night stay that were friendly and eager to do whatever they could to help. The room only had one outlet for electricity and the wifi was unreliable and difficult to connect to on the second floor.... More

Very much a party hostel with it's own bar as well as it's own nightclub. The public was allowed to use both of these venues at times which gave it a more authentic local atmosphere. There was a 'chill-out' room with a projector screen and you could get movies from the front desk to watch there. Cleanliness was OK, showers... More

Prebooked a room and upon arrival I was told they overbooked and there was no room, but another hostel half way across the city was available. They did find space for me at the one down the street but it was in a freshly painted room that made you feel sick. Out of 3 bathrooms on 2 floors only one... More

Spent a couple of weeks here and thought it was great! Nice location (near Borough market and just down the road from a tube station), lockers are cheap if you want to drop your bags off early, friendly staff, free breakfast, lockable basket under all the beds, free wifi, decent bar downstairs...what more could you want? Obviously its a budget... More

Okay hostel, great location (being near london bridge) Stayed here for 3 weeks. Staff were nice but had no clue what was around them and couldn't give advice on most touristy things. Rooms and hallways are constantly being cleaned but always manages to somehow feel and look dirty and toilets always manage to look disgusting. Cleaning staff are rude. Not... More

In London this could be one of the best hostels taking into consideration all the services provided for the value you pay. NIce staff, nice atsmophere, good room, nice facilities and breakfast included. From this hostel you can walk to the London Bridge and then start walking along the river, and this is really great.

A hostel with free lockers, wifi and breakfast is already a good one! It's well-located, just 200m away from the tube stop (London Bridge), is across the road from a supermarket and is right by the Borough Market which makes a great few hours of drooling over fresh fruit, breads and cheese! The beds are comfortable enough... and as in... More
