This is the very first hostel that I've patronized and I must say that YHA Lodon has set the trend and the bar. I would definitely recommend it to friends and family.

Very convenient as a stop over before catching Eurostar. However, room was very warm, even though temperature outside was not particularly high. A fan was provided, but was noisy. Did not make for a good night's sleep. Bracket for shower hose was broken, making showering tricky.

We enjoyed our stay at YHA. The accomodation is conveniently close to everything. We loved that restaurants/cafes/bars and shops were within walking distance.

It is really good for its price among London's other accomodation options. The staff was really nice in helping out with my check in, luggage storage as well as finding my lost items. It is good for a short stay, just remember your own pad locks.

It started with lovely staff member.
Reception staff were nice. Room was clean but dark. On suite bathroom clean. I was reserved a bottom bunk because of disability. I would use again.

Excellent location
Great location and friendly reception.
The beds are clean and comfortable although the room is small. No issue if you are out all day and only come back to sleep.

Great location though rooms didn't really have any lockable spaces for valuables that were useable.
Interaction with staff was quite variable, some super lovely and helpful while other staff were abrupt and rather rude. I was also disappointed to be told they didn't have a working washing machine despite advertising laundry facilities.

I stayed at a 6 bed dormitory and it offered everything I needed. Definitely worth the price
