This was by far the best stay I had throughout my two month backpacking trip around Europe. We only had to stay one night before heading back home and even that was too much. The staff was rude and not helpful at all. There was a lounge but it was very cramped. Our door to our mixed dorm didn't shut... More

we thought this place okay but a few days into our stay, a girl found bed bugs. The housekeeper apologized and said he is always fighting them and the manager refused to give a refund. Horrible place, barely clean and never had handsoap in the bathrooms. the only saving grace was the friendly staff but they didnt really know london... More

Ignore the horror stories - this is a perfectly acceptable hostel, handy for central London on the tube. Reception staff seem a bit chaotic but otherwise reasonably clean and comfortable. Would stay here again to save a few quid. More

Although quite close to the tube station and a computer available to use for a cost, the hostel itself was disappointing as it's in desperate need of a renovation. There was missing carpeting in my room, the balcony door wouldn't close properly, and the sheets smelled of cigarettes. An employee was not familiar with local street names or shops when... More

First things first, when my friends and I just arrived, we had to wait for the receptionist to finish her shift. Which is at 2pm, the time they themselves set for checking in. Shouldn't they have changed shift before the check in time? Then we were given 2 separate rooms even though we made our group booking together. We even... More

If you book a room with friends be ready to be split up as bookkeeping skills are non-existent here. Positive thing is because the same owner runs the Hostel 369, you can just request to be moved so that they give you the service you booked, and if its their mistake they will drive you. More

Avoid this hostel like Londoners should have avoided the plague a couple centuries ago. It's absolutely the most disgusting place I have ever stayed, and I've stayed in a LOT of hostels. The showers are actually black with mold. ALso, the beds are horribly loud and UNCOMFORTABLE. It's not worth the low price, seriously. This place sucks. It should be... More

The purpose of this review is to warn you that Central Hostel is not only disgusting to the point of being hazardous to your health, but also dangerous. And I don’t mean dangerous because of the area, but actually from the manager of the Central Hostel itself. I will explain my entire experience and although it may seem to be... More
