I had searched many London hotels and found that many of them wanted us to book 2 rooms for my husband, 2 small children and I. Then my husband remembered he had stayed at Baden-Powell house many years ago on a scouting trip to London. He even remembered that they offered a discount because he is now an Eagle Scout.... More

I stayed here with a group of young people for work and we really only used it as a base which it is ideal for. Just 5 mins from Gloucester Road tube station and over the road from the Natural History Museum it's great for exploring London while not paying a fortune for accommodation. Bathroom is absolutely tiny and some... More

I stayed overnight at BPH with a group of friends for 1 night. When we first arrived it all looked ok, but worse was to come. When were shown to our room my first reaction was " this is really spacious". But the bathroom was so small there was barely even any leg room. There was mouldy chewing gum on... More

Very clean, modern hostel. The friendly staff responded instantly to any problems/queries. Bedding and towels provided. The continental breakfast was quite extensive, including baked beans and toast making faciliteies. Very close to Waitrose and Tesco Express (so easy to buy inexpensive food) as well as KFC, Burger King and numerous pubs and restaurants. Outside terrace on second floor with table... More

Stayed here with 29 other students last year and generally found it a nice place to stay. Rooms were clean with plenty of storage space and nice views but unfortunately the bathrooms were miniscule and showers didn't really work properly. Slept well, wasn't much noise after 10pm. Breakfast was continental, sufficient but nothing special. Staff were polite and helpful. Good... More

This hotel was the best hotels I've been in, in London. The staff are very friendly, they let us put our luggage in their store room even though we were checking-in at 6pm, so that was very nice of them to do that for us. The bedrooms were very clean and tidy, however the beds wasn't very comfortable to sleep... More

I stayed at the hotel overnight with a group of 36 students of travel & tourism. The customer service we received was excellent, the staff very attentive and pleasant. We arrived at 10am - and were able to leave our considerable luggage in their store room - despite not checking in until 6pm. Check in was straight forward, and despite... More
