This place is huge! In London, where it's difficult to find cheap(er) accommodations, the youth hostel was a good bargain. Back in 2006, for 2 people, 2 nights, double bed with a private bath was about $175. For London, that is a great price. It also has a lot of great hang out places within the hostel including a bar,... more

We found The Globetrotter Inn to be a good value clean hostel. The beds have curtains around them which is great and the rooms are clean and spacious. There is also a kitchen you can use with pots and pans etc... and a fridge to keep food in. There are even staff that do the kitchen washing up for you!... more

Went here to overnight before an interview, so specifically asked to be away from the bar and this was honoured. Was in a four-bed single-sex dorm, which was clean, tidy, roomy but didn't quite have enough storage space for 4... Found the bed great, but the pillow rubbish. The bed curtains and light are very good too. Shower facilities +... more

I was traveling with a group of primary school aged students. It served our needs for sleep, but did not have the same comfortable feel that some of the other hostels we stayed at had. The hosts at the hostel were attentive and kind though. Some of the folks in our group had a room on the same side of... more

I have recently spent a week and two days at this place. The hostel is located at a very strategic position...what I mean is its close to the suburbs like hounslow r southall...with direct buses just down the lane while well connected to central london with buses and hammersmith station just 7-8 stops away! I quite liked the cleanliness and... more

Not sure why it gets bad reviews, but here are the pro's and con's you should know before booking: Location: It is about a 20 minute tube ride to the center of London, but very easy and... more

My Drama group and I were taking a trip to London to watch a musical at night. We had to stay at a hostel, so our teacher chose Globbetrotters Inn since she read good reviews about it. We were 30 girls, and they managed to fit 6 of us in each room. Everything looked nice and neat, I acutally thought... more

We stayed here for a night before, and a couple of nights after, a three week Top Deck tour through Europe. It is located in a good location as it is near a tube stop and there are a variety of reasonably priced restaurants and convenience stores nearby. Breakfast is included in the rate – toast, cereal, tea, coffee, juice.... more

This is a huge hostel in a former nurses home, so it´s a little institutional looking, but really well run and well equipped. The dorms I saw were quite spacious, and each bunk has its own curtains and light, which you don´t get that often. The bathrooms could do with a makeover, but the showers were hot and worked fine,... more
