Palmers Lodge

All round excellent hostel This was my second time at Palmers Lodge, good as always. I like the curtains on the bunks and the provision of a lamp on each bed. Would be good... read more if each bed had access to a plug socket for charging devices, but this wasn't a major issue as there were plenty of sockets elsewhere. Good common areas and there's a small communal kitchen. Lots of school trip groups but they didn't cause any problems and with the size of the hostel didn't impact the atmosphere.

The staff were all really lovely and friendly. Shout out in particular to Lina on reception who was absolutely amazing at helping me when I needed to change beds.

Will definitely be staying here next time I need a hostel in London. More read less

Wouldve been 5 One of the better hostels ive been to in London. My stay would’ve been perfect if I didnt have a booking issue. They accepted my reservation for two days but... read more was asked to transfer room on my second night. The hassle of unpacking and also that I had to wait for 2pm to check in again. I really wanted to continue my sleep but was just to just get out earlier. But I believe the staff I’ve spoken with was able to handle it quite well. Shes very pleasant and sincerely apologetic (unlike the one who checked me in)

Without this issue, I would say choose this hostel. It could be quite noisy if you’re room is right beside the bar the noise is not that loud enought to keep you awake.

Beds are clean with curtains for privacy. You have your own lamp and of course socket to charge your phones. They have a free luggage room and paid ones if you want it more secure (not all hostels have this option, normally it’s just either of the two)

Lastly, it’s near the train stations. I didnt have problem getting to the airport. More read less

Great place to stay The only thing I didn't like here was the Wi-Fi which you have to reconnect to it from time to time (20-30 minutes I think), but other than that I... read more have nothing to complain, the staff was very friendly, the bed bunks have curtains which is a great thing,it really helps you to feel more comfortable in a room full of strangers. I would gladly come back again there if I would be traveling in London again! read less

Decent place to stay with some noticeable flaws In general, I liked this place. It was way better than the hostel I'd stayed at previously. The room size was good, as were most of the amenities. However, some... read more issues: (1) it's a bit off the beaten path so that's just something you'll have to get used to; (2) the wi-fi was basically not useable, and as an American I rely on wifi to have a decent connection to the internet; (3) the bar is on the basement level as are several rooms, so the noise can become noticeable (though it wasn't bad most of the time); (4) bathroom cleanings took place during the times I most wanted to shower (9:30-10:30) so I had to use other floors' showers.

That said, overall my stay was great. And if they can fix their wi-fi problem, I'd highly recommend this place to friends. read less

Cool Spot Super easy to find from the subway station. Really nice and easy going staff. Close to all the tourist spots. I was in the 21 girl room and it was... read more surprisingly spacious! They offered laundry and breakfast for a small cost. read less

Nice, well-cared-for hostel A great place to stay! If I ever find myself back in London on a solo trip or with a friend, I will plan to stay here again.

I stayed here... read more for 3 nights in a large all-female dorm. I found the room, beds, and bathroom to be well maintained and was happy to have power outlets to charge my phone inside the dorm (I would have loved if there was an power strip at each socket, though, sometimes there weren't enough places to plug into). The staff at the front desk were pleasant and helpful. read less
