Guest Reviews

• Linus (8/5): Great location and value for money! - Rooms were clean, price was great especially for a great location, staff were friendly. Shower was inconsistent as the water kept alternating between hot and cold. Sink was a bit small.
• mariana (6/5): Ok - Location was great! The shared bathroom got clogged a few times
• Adkins (7/5): - Location is great! Staffs are nice and easy going. Everything is like a big dorm ...the atmosphere is active and nice The soundproofing is really bad, so you need to be able to sleep well
• Rivera Hukdhs (8/5): -
• Anna (6/5): -
• YU XUAN (7/5): -
• Poonam (9/5): Homecoming - The hospitality and the professional approach I wish I could have stayed longer
• Malwina (10/5): -
• Dražen (8/5): -
• Vidhya (9/5): Pleasant stay - The staff were polite. Reception available at all times. Check-in process was easy. The location is good. The room was bright as it had glass ceiling. The bed was comfortable. Had charging sockets and lamp next to each bed. Spacious restaurant available inside the accommodation. Was able to stay in the common area after the check-out time. Walkable distance to many shops. The room was small and had no windows.
• Christelle (8/5): Hôtel très bien placé et personnel agréable - Emplacement, calme, personnel très sympa
• HIN CHING (10/5): -
• Madina (9/5): Great experience - The staff is so friendly and helpful! It’s always nice to have people around who are willing to help, and the 24-hour lobby is a huge bonus. The location is also a major plus. One of my favorite things was the kitchen — being able to make a bowl of pasta after a long day of walking is honestly genius. Nothing really 🤔
• Gabriela (8/5): Wszystko w porządku - Super lokalizacja
• ümit (5/5): - Konumu çok iyi yerde Oda sayısına göre duş ve wc sayısı çok az ve temiz değil odalar çok dar
• Paul (10/5): - Staff, location and cleanliness were very good Basement kitchen needs better ventilation or a fan on all the time
• Paul (10/5): - Superb location and very quiet safe streets and beside regents park and nice restaurants, bookshops a d not far from galleries and muesums Rooms too small and beds need privacy curtains
• Mary (10/5): -
• Marisol (9/5): Excelente atención, ubicación perfecta! Pude hacer todo a pie. - La limpieza, lo agradables y empaticos de los jóvenes por entenderme al no hablar inglés. Tal vez que debieran pinero perchas en las duchas
• Coding Courses (10/5): -
• 嵐伶 (10/5): -
• Sganaël (8/5): -
• Janek (10/5): - It is a very good location. All is well mantained and clean. Reception staff is very friendly and helpful. I recommend the place. Close to Tesco and there is kitchen which you can use to prepare your meals. All good.
• NOUFAL (10/5): Wonderful stay I am recommending - Everything good All property
• Ian (5/5): Not very impressed with my stay this time. You have started charging to look after people bags. - Location is very good. Staff are very nice and hemlock Cold shower no hot water in my room 508 staff were informed. Very helpful. But couldn't do anything as they are not plumbers. You've also started charging to look after people's bags. VERY WRONG. lockers are too small. My bag is rather large and would not fit in, if I'd choose to leave it. I did not use the lockers though. I would not pay to use them. BAD MOVE ON BEHALF OF THE YHA. NOT GOOD. SEEMS VERY GREEDY. YOU PAY ENOUGH TO STAY AT THE YHA.
• Ritika (1/5): - Nothing other than location Everything was bad
• Jessica (10/5): - Perfect location and comfy bed! I’d say to put a shelf in the bathrooms
• Roberto (10/5): Consiglio questa struttura - L'ostello è situato in posizione centrale. Camere dignitose con letti abbastanza comodi. Doccia e bagno sempre puliti. Ottima colazione. Staff cordiale e gentile
• Magdalena (10/5): Altamente recomendable - En principio su ubicación, principalmente las instalaciones y servicios brindados, como cafetería de primera todo día con básicos gratuitos (te-café) y resto de pago. Muy cómodas las instalaciones compartidas . El personal fue amable y complaciente. Las personas que me crucé todas muy respetuosas. Altamente recomendable si te vienes a Amsterdam sola !
• JULIAN (9/5): Best visit to London to date. (I am now over 70)… - Excellent staff One UNEXPECTED cold shower!
• Fernandes (10/5): - Central London location
• TIEMIER (10/5): - YHA always makes u feel good 👍
• Pranesh (6/5): - Location Staff and receptionist
• Jarnika (9/5): - Schönes sauberes Hostel in perfekter Lage in London um viel zu Fuß zu erreichen Frühstücksbuffet wird sehr zögerlich bis gar nicht nach bestückt- das ist bei dem Preis nicht nachvollziehbar.
• SeniorKiwi (10/5): Exceptionally clean and well-located hostel that has a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. - Location was close to the tube station, pubs, shops and park. The staff were welcoming and the whole property was exceptionally clean. There is a huge kitchen/dining area with storage and fridges for guests, with everything you need. Great place to socialise with other guests while cooking and eating. There is a lift to each floor and even in my bunk room there were separate toilet and shower rooms. Beside reception is a lounge area/cafe where you can relax and enjoy a coffee. They also have storage lockers of different sizes. Highly recommend this hostel. Great value for the price. Nothing really - maybe an extra pillow would be good but that would be all.
• Leo (7/5): - Very good location We had to pay extra to store the luggage there for a few hours. We expected it, but it would of vourse have been better if we could store it for free.
• Cheima (10/5): -
• Alexandru (8/5): - Everything apart from the Wi-Fi Wi-Fi was terrible. It kept dropping out and reconnecting in my room.
• 陆 (9/5): very good -

• Nicky (8/5): Super convenient clean stopover - Great location. Very clean. Room was quiet.
• Anna (10/5): -
• Marcelina (8/5): - It was sweltering and humid in the room
• Mar (9/5): - Tener una habitaciones familiares. La ubicación cerca del centro y bien comunicada con transporte. Zona agradable y segura y tranquila con muchos restaurantes cerca y un par de supermercados. Que tenga cocina. Muy buena señal WiFi. Que me cobren por las toallas , aunque se agradece que sean de una calidad y tamaño excepcional. Me hubiese gustado que tuviese mas espacios comunes con sofás confortables. El espacio de cocina es mejorable.
• Sabrina (8/5): Ottima posizione per visitare Londra - Posizione ottima Asciugamani a noleggio
• Асен (1/5): they have misleading advertising - they have misleading advertising
• Rozemarijn (8/5): -
• Wassim (8/5): -
• Maximilian (9/5): YHA London Central - Gut gelegen. Sehr freundliches Personal. Zweckmässig, aber sauber. Die Gepäckaufbewahrung erfolgt in Form von Schliessfächern und ist daher kostenpflichtig.
• Tom (5/5): It was okay for one night but wouldn’t go back - Good location and great staff Squeaky beds. One toilet and one shower for c.30 people. Hot rooms. No in room lockers.
• Kristina (10/5): -
• oliveira (10/5): Grateful - Yes , hostel very clean
• Rafał (10/5): -
• Amir (8/5): - Da smo dobili lastno sobo s kopalnico, zelo dober wi-fi, zelo tih in miren hostel, cisto Ni bilo okna v sobi
• Andrea (7/5): Chilled out and easy. - Friendly, relaxed, central. Lots of people coming in through the night. Everyone was polite. Just the nature of hostel stats and travel arrangements.
• Stevie (10/5): Safe stay - Location, building, modern, polite, cheap. Exceptionally clean!! Extremely safe vibe. Staff were polite, happy, very helpful, aware. I was up early to catch a flight, they made me a lovely latte free of charge. I have stayed in quite a few hostels in UK, YHA hostels are 100% the value.... for all of the above reasons. Metal coat hangers... nice touch, but, it was like tubular bells 🔔 🎶 So loud and clangy, when someone comes into room late, or leaves early... they do wake you up 🙉🙈
• Ali (10/5): - Cleanses and staff friendliness and professionalism
• Berkley (10/5): -
• Olubunmi (10/5): - Excellent location. Nothing.
• Philip (1/5): Would never use or advise others do.. Avoid!!!! - Nothing Staff
• Ami̇ne (8/5): - Tesis temizdi çalışanlar güler yüzlüydü konumu çok merkezi ve önemli yerlere yakındı. 2 gece de zemin katta kalmamıza rağmen gayet rahat uyudum. Kadınlarla paylaşımlı oda da rahattı.
• Mauro (10/5): - Centrico Duchas
• Mei Mei (8/5): Overall, my stay was fairly good. The location was excellent, the staff were friendly and helpful. However, a few issues - Excellent location. 15 mins walk to Soho and Oxford Circus. 5 mins walk from Great Portland Street Station to hostel. The bathroom drainage was blocked, and even after repair, it was still clogged the next day. The room had two lights but no separate switches, which was inconvenient. The booking system didn’t allow choosing between 4/6/8-bed rooms, as everything was auto-assigned, which lacked flexibility.

• Stephen (7/5): Very Good over all. Recommend staying here - NA..didnt take breakfast. I however would suggest that staying guests would at least be offered complimentary tea/Coffee in the morning or minimal charge, Doesn't cost alot and is good customer service I must say my experience was very positive. Clean, toilets etc clean, staff nice. Spacious reception. Good kitchen. Id stay here again, and couldn't fault this place, but id definitely suggest the complimentary coffee in morning, be a nice touch to a very good place. Thankyou
• Shiyi (8/5): -
• Agnès (9/5): - La proximité du centre, l'accueil, la propreté, les services
• Eda (8/5): -
• Richard (9/5): Long time since I stayed in a youth hostel, but I was very impressed. - Sockets for CPAP machine. All 'older' gentlemen in the dorm. No job to do in the morning ( shows my age ) Noisy ventilation system through the night, but it was necessary.
• Krzysztof (10/5): Warto się zatrzymać w tym miejscu jest dobrze położone i wszystko jest jak najbardziej w porządku - Obiekcie jest czysto i leży w dobrej lokalizacji Nie mam zastrzeżeń
• Stanley Sathler (10/5): We loved and recommend - Everything was perfect. Special thanks to Staff - everyone was super polite, friendly, and helpful. Felt us feel like home. Definitely recommend.
• Mark (9/5): - Everything
• Fen (6/5): - 位置好，性价比高。 主要是没配储物箱，房客的东西挂墙上的，挂床边的，放地上的，到处都是，屋里非常凌乱。床上没有隔断帘，隐私方面差。
• Catherine (9/5): There's never anywhere better to stay than a YHA hostel. - Helpful, friendly staff, clean & well designed rooms & bathrooms, comfy beds &, as always at YHA hostels, a superbly clean & well equipped kitchen. I'd prefer not to have en-suite bathrooms inside the dorms, but I know I'm probably in the minority on this :) The dorm was also a little on the warm side.

• Coding Courses (10/5): -
• Louise (9/5): Great value, good location, friendly staff - Clean, welcoming, good cafe/bar area Nothing
• Michèle (3/5): Lage ideal, Service, Sauberkeit, Freundlichkeit, Komfort unterdurchschnittlich!! - Die Lage für London zu erkunden ist perfekt, das Frühstück ausser der Kaffee ist sehr ok. Preis Leistung stimmt nicht! Sauberkeit der Küche miserabel. Personal unfreundlich. WC und Dusche, Zimmer könnten mit wenig Aufwand, Z.B. mehr Hacken für Kleider komfortabler eingerichtet werden!
• Simon (10/5): -
• Shahid (8/5): -
• Grace (5/5): - Staff are always friendly and ready to help. I love the location, its 10 minutes walk to my work place. The toilet and shower was always wet on the floor. There is no mop and bucket in the shower rooms and its annoying because it's women who leave a puddle of water. I don't know if some wash in the toilet as there is a very small sink hence the water on the floor. Come to the sleeping, I didn't sleep well for 3 nights. A lady was snoring like a helicopter 🚁 and unfortunately, she would go to sleep first. Another lady , kept trying to shush her but that didn't work. So it was a challenging 3 nights.
• Honorine (10/5): -
• Natália (9/5): - Excellent location, security lockers room, private bathroom inside per shared rooms sofas in shared areas with stains of dirt, lack of floor mat in the bathroom of the bedrooms to avoid wetting the floor
• Mark (7/5): -
• Paula (9/5): Excelente calidad-precio-ubicación - Estaba super limpio Las camas eran un poco incomodas
• CÉLINE (7/5): - Tres sympa
• Lucy (6/5): -
• Newsome (9/5): -
• Theresa (8/5): - Clean room No curtain for privacy
• Sandra (2/5): Unacceptable place to stay. Tiny dorms for 6 people without lockers. Better camping.... - Location Dorm for 6 in 4m2. Shameful! I couldn't move around my bunk bed because it was in between 2 walls. Plus the knob of the toilet was broken, my bed light was also broken and THERE ARE NO LOCKERS OR PLACE TO PUT OUR THINGS, TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. On top of that they have lockers in the basement THAT WE NEED TO FOR IT (per hour). I never stayed in such a bad place. The receptionists were also very arrogant when I asked for a solution as they didn't inform me about the lockers.
