4.0 star ratingFriendly and helpfull staff, easy to get to and very close to london city and tourism. It's not a hotel, more like a hostel. We had a room for two my friend an i, and it was really hot in there and no to turn the heat down. Bunkbeds not my favourite!Anne-Sofie04 January 2013
3.0 star ratingPersonal war sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Auch die Lage ist gut.Frühstück absolut mau, die letzten zwei Tage war dann auch der Speiseraum geschlossen, sodass man im Aufenhaltsbereich frühstücken musste, zwischen Computern. :( Beim ersten Zimmer ließ sich die "Bad"-Tür nicht schließen, beim zweiten war es so heiß, dass man nachts nicht schlafen konnte... Fenster lassen sich ja nur 3 cm öffnen und woher die Hitze kam war nicht zu orten :(20 February 2013
2.5 star ratingDas Hostel war gut mit Bus und u-Bahn zu erreiche!Das Frühstück war sehr schlicht und ohne Abwechslung! Die Zimmer sehr spartanisch eingerichtet! Durch andere Gäste und den Verkehr war es sehr lautD19 February 2013
3.0 star ratingOn the website is showed towel are included but when I got there I had to pay for it. It was quite noisy through night, because almost all the guests were teenager and were running and talking throughout the hall and knocking the doors including my door. It was really annoying21 June 2013
3.0 star ratingHotel and staff very friendly, good service and clean rooms. Breakfast also included which is a plus.No negatives about hostel but NEGATIVE ABOUT HOTELOPIA. They had not let the hostel know of our booking so we did not get our rooms we asked for, meaning that we did not get ensuites and my friend was left in a room with no windows. Hotelopia have not even bothered to reply to my letter of complaint, DO NOT BOOK THROUGH HOTELOPIA BOOK THROUGH HOSTEL. Will not be booking with hotelopia again.rhian25 June 2013
3.5 star ratingLocation is good. Good value for money.Could have hairdyer. Room was quite small.Eva25 June 2013
4.5 star ratingNot all of the showers on the 1st floor were working, although there were builders working, so they are probably being updated/repaired24 June 2013
3.5 star ratingVery kind and helpfull personals. Nearby city and nearby underground. We arrive the hostel 5 min before closing. But it take one hour before we get any room because of hotelopia. Our room was not booked from hotelopia, and the personal have a problem with allready booked rooms. so thank you staff that fixed it for us. I will never book trough Hotelopia again.....

3.0 star ratingThe guests I encountered were all pleasant. Some of the staff were friendly.The window ledge next to the bed was dusty and dirty. The hand drier in the toilet was weak and kept going off. The light was left on in the dorm for much of the night.Dave02 July 2013
5.0 star ratingGood Central LocationNo mention about renting towel. Would have taken it if offered and costs mentioned on arrival. Was some confusion about my room, Girls started complaining to me, told them to go the reception and get it sorted out. Was given another room.23 July 2013
3.0 star ratingClean. Satisfactory breakfast. Suitable for school groups.Lack of towels being provided in the cost of the room. Unable to open the window for air or have a fan when there were hot nights.03 August 2013
3.0 star ratingThe temperature inside the room was the same as outside !!! About 4 - 6 degrees Celsius.26 November 2013
4.0 star ratingManaged to get twin ensuite inc continental breakfast for £40. Easy to find and managed to walk to all tourist attractions without needing to use any public transport as The City of London is smaller than you think. Free WiFi not sure how secure it is though.No confirmation of reservation received, emailed but no reply so had to call to confirm booking. They didnt think i had breakfast included so had to show reciept as proof that I had paid.07 December 2013
4.5 star ratingClean, Modern and cheap. Very freindly staff on the desk too two plugs couldn't be used on the yop bunk bed as the railing was in the way. Golden Kempy21 April 2015
1.5 star ratingNothingUnclean, anpreofessionals, very expesive and very bad organization in the breakfast.Anonymous 23 June 2016
3.5 star ratingValue for moneyVentilation in rooms not appropriate Quality of beds not so great Would suggest a microwave oven in the KitchenSadiq04 December 2016
4.0 star ratingPretty good for the costAnonymous 28 July 2017
3.0 star ratingCheap bed with polite staff. They did not advertise exactly how many beds there are in one room and with good reason, because, had known I would be put into a room with 20 strangers, I would have thought twice about this place and would have brought a lock with me for my luggage. In addition, this hotel is located in a noisy area where the traffic was easily heard all night long. Furthermore, fellow guests in the bedroom come and went throughout the night, turning on the lights and talking at various times of the night, and diminished my quality of sleep. All in all, I would not stay there again. Anonymous 25 July 2017
