Having just returned from the Baden Powell where we stayed because there was a very large group of us, i was pleasantly surprised. The (double) room was a lot bigger than i expected and there were tea & coffee making facilites with plenty of the stuff. There was also a desk and futon in our room. Plus en-suite toilet room... more

All I wanted was to get to my room.The elevator not working,and... more

We had two great nights in this hostel. The staff were really helpful and friendly and it's in an excellent position for the Science, Natural History and V & A museums. Our twin room was basic but very clean and for the low cost it was ideal. We visited in preparation for a forthcoming school visit and it's ideal for... more

Stayed here for one night with a group 13 sixth-formers. Prices were reasonable for such a central location. Rooms were tidy and clean. Showers were rubbish - no pressure and little water! The breakfast was basic. You could help yourself to what you liked, but it was still basic! We booked packed lunches through them and they managed to mess... more
