The location is great only two minutes walk to Kings cross. would reccommend ##### Maria Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Martin Jun 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice and easy to get to from the station, staff friendly but the HEAT!

I love this hostel. Beds are great, price is amazing, location is superb. I take all the money I save on lodging and spend it on the theatre!! ##### Nancy Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ryan Mar 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service #### What you expect for budget Reception staff just sat on phones chatting with each other, beds not comfy, toilets on top floor were grim. Also heating on full all night. Was a good stay ##### Ryan Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Ilaria Dec 17, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Me and my husband have been there for 3 nights. A cozy hostel near King's Cross train station and underground, staff is really kind and has many services. Rooms are well heated and you can choose the level of heating. Kitchen and common areas are well equipped and in the morning you can have breakfast prepared by the staff. Only "negative" thing is that some areas like bathroom near rooms is not so much soundproof, but no dramas. So, hostel well recommended! ##### Ilaria Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Alexander Jul 15, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities It was an ok experience. bed was nice. the hostel has a good location.There were three showers. The first shower was in maintenance and the second one was cold.

Rooms were poorly lit and ventilated. No proper air conditioning so was uncomfortably hot each night. Would not return again and do not recommend to anyone looking for a cheap stay you can find safer accommodation elsewhere. ##### Uzodinma Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Sep 9, 2023 Liked: Staff & service #### Low cost, but….. Reception staff was very friendly, I booked a eight beds dorm, the room too small for 8 person. Under heat wave without air con ( or good ventilation)was a nightmare, the room got one big fan only on the floor, and two small windows in the room. Bed so uncomfortable, had a low back pain next day. Door sound loud ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### COLIN Oct 21, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Great location near Kings Cross. Staff friendly. Self checkin is rubbish- takes ages (need to type in your licence ID etc.- then it didn’t work. Ah well. Showed are little all-in-one fibre glass things- they have a shelf for shampoo but the shower curtains are gone. Bunks are laid out like a concentration camp- people laying on each side of you with just a short partition. Stacked three high. Lucking I was on top with an open skylight above. Good sized lockers assigned to each guest, but typically, only a few tiny coat cooks to share. ##### COLIN Stayed 1 night in Oct 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Steven Oct 20, 2025 Liked: Staff & service If you’re on a top bunk it’s unlikely you’ll get a nice sleep, as there is a skylight which means if another room turns their light on it shines into your eyes. Coupled with this, is etiquette from other guests is poor. However the staff who work there are excellent. ##### Steven Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Shuhei Jul 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 立地と価格を考えればお得だと思います。 トイレやシャワールームは少し狭く、清潔ではないと感じることもありましたが、許容範囲でした。 すぐ横にスーパーがあり、朝や夜の買い物にも便利です。また、目の前にバス停もあるのでバスに乗れたら更に利便性は増します。 ##### Shuhei Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Carlos Jul 14, 2025 Hot room, needs a/c. ##### Carlos Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Silva Jul 14, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was handy and decent for a one night after missing my Eurostar.

Bra å ligge i pod, men det mangler air condition på rommet, så det blir veldig varmt og dårlig luft der på sommeren. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Alberto Jun 22, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Muy mal lugar las instalaciones no se parecen en nada a las imagines, falta de aire acondicionado en las habitaciones. ##### Alberto Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hilton Garden Inn London Heathrow Terminal 2 and 3](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-London-Heathrow-Terminal-2-And-3.h33088275.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Kensington](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Kensington.h26612.Hotel-Information) > > [Staycity London Dalston](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Kingsland-Locke.h57227439.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis London Earls Court](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Ibis-London-Earls-Court.h14264.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza London Heathrow T4 by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-London-Heathrow-T4.h22334825.Hotel-Information) > > [London Heathrow Marriott Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-London-Heathrow-Marriott-Hotel.h438504.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Ibis-London-Heathrow-Airport.h16754.Hotel-Information) > > [Aerotel London Heathrow Airport Terminal 2-3](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Aerotel-London-Heathrow-T2-T3.h21528024.Hotel-Information) > > [Danubius Hotel Regents Park](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Danubius-Hotel-Regents-Park.h26085.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-London-Heathrow-Airport.h1716953.Hotel-Information) > > [Ibis budget London Heathrow Central](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-London-Heathrow-Central.h72386009.Hotel-Information) > > [Sofitel London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Sofitel-London-Heathrow.h1740977.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stratford, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Stratford-Hotel-London.h31325464.Hotel-Information) > > [Renaissance London Heathrow Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Renaissance-London-Heathrow-Hotel.h9944.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Leonardo-London-Heathrow-Airport.h570358.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton London City](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Arbor-City-Hotel.h201127.Hotel-Information) > > [Tribe London Canary Wharf](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Tribe-London-Canary-Wharf.h83096424.Hotel-Information) > > [MOXY London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-MOXY-London-Heathrow-Airport.h20463397.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn London Heathrow - Bath Road by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-London-Heathrow-Bath-Road.h25727547.Hotel-Information) > > [Thistle London Heathrow Terminal 5](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Thistle-London-Heathrow-T5.h882761.Hotel-Information) > > [Mama Shelter London - Shoreditch](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Mama-Shelter-London-Shoreditch.h1886693.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton London - Docklands Riverside](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-London-Docklands-Riverside.h2456.Hotel-Information) > > [Stamford Bridge Hotel London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Stamford-Bridge-Hotel.h65802.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express London Heathrow T4 by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-London-Heathrow-T4.h22336089.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place London City East](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-London-City-East.h60903297.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Canary Wharf](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Canary-Wharf.h1457899.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson RED Hotel London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Radisson-RED-Hotel-London-Heathrow.h46218383.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points Flex by Sheraton London Shoreditch East](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-East-London-Hotel.h27372440.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel London West](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Novotel-London-West.h17246.Hotel-Information)
