Hyde Park Hostel - Youth-Hostels.co.uk

Very dirty, toilets and showers are repugnant (and the word is weak), staff is very unpleasant, absolutely everything is paid (record, 1.5 books per day, per luggage, maps...) are reluctant even to ask information of fear also paid! Le petit déjeuné is even not included! In short, establishment to avoid unless mold smells disturb not... I did it return for the world!

A very bad experience in this hostel I would strongly advise against...

Arriving the evening we had a mixed dormitory of eight beds: the room smelled very bad, he was very hot and the beds were dirty and without separation curtain (Fortunately we was sheets were clean air).

The biggest problem has been one of the other boys in the House (we were two girls) who was very dirty and did not stop swearing, spitting and insults us. It was really not reassuring. I know it's a little game of the hostels to be with other people and that here we are clearly not fallen, but this was really not reassuring and fortunately that other people arrived during the night....

I do not retenterai this hostel and advise you to choose another if you can!

Good location near of the centre of London but the hostel ought really a renovation. The rooms are summary and are talking about showers and toilets (there is horror...)

Breakfast for the price that I paid (the new year period) can be understood as in most of London Hostels!

Unlike many comments disadvantageous below, I found the hostel very honest for the price paid (room of 4 beds). Simply read the terms and conditions before booking to have no concern (pay the rest on arrival, so anticipate the liquid necessary, although looking at the room type: mixed or not, including breakfast, etc).

The hostel (because it is a hostel, and not a hotel, there is a difference) appears certainly somewhat dilapidated (painting which is off, antiquated aspect) household is done on a daily basis, both in the House that in the WC and showers but it seems to me that it is the essential.

The quilts are clean, the correct mattress.

The window closes, but heating very largely offsets, you die not cold!

The curtain is a little old, but it does not pass our life to the contemplate.

In addition, the hostel is very well situated: mouth of nearby Metro, shops, parks...

However, there is no elevator, so if you are located in the floors, you will make you muscles!

Despite posters asking specifically, customers were not their dishes... But this is a problem of customers, and not the hostel itself.

Finally, the home is very correct.

In summary, good quality-price ratio.

Vile hostel! The only positive point: his situation. All the rest was only disappointment. A smell and a ubiquitous dirt, whether in the rooms or in the common parts. Moisture seems to have invaded the building. Showers are still worse: molds, no breakdown... This seems to have been actually cleaned since long.

Moreover, the home person is of the wrong kind.

ARE THERE ESPECIALLY NOT GOING! DON'T GO IN THIS YOUTH HOSTEL!

also war so so, das zimmer ist einbisschen öde weil es nur betten u ein washbasin gab. Dann waren die toiletten und duschen sehr unsauber. dafür war die bedinung an der Suite sehr nett und gut gab es dort interetnutzungen or ort. Preis ist auch gut.

Después de haber leído todos los comentarios me esperaba mucho peor a sitio.

De todas formas es el peor hostel in el estado, pero solo he estuve a día y porque no. canchaparán otra cosa free.

Así que en conclusión: la habitación estaba mal al menos estaba limpia, los baños No. No. me gustaron nada (las horrible duchas) y había muy pocos, la cocina no tiene apenas utensilios para cocina y ademas te cobran por todo, if quieres dejar maleta en el cuarto case también te cobran.

Volvería if tuviera muchas ganas of ir has London pero no. estaría an allí día más

Rates very attractive (€10 night, perfect for small budgets), but when you arrive on-site understand why: the room was dirty, almost unusable showers, with a single hook for its business (think take of flip-flops). Step common room, apart from the dining room, which is finally almost always empty because the cleanliness of the kitchen (most of the "residents" eat outside). Still a good point: rather, the hostel is well located. Hyde Park is located 5 min walk, several restaurants and food stores and two metro stations in the main street. Picadilly Circus and Oxford Street are not far by subway or bus. If there is really a limited budget or that it is not very looking level hygiene that's enough, but can also be a clean and well located hostel for a few euros more per night.

The quality of the rooms and bathrooms, we found them in a State of disrepair and insalubrity: mold, peeling, trsè paint unstuck carpets.... In the non-existent window stairs and carpets snatches!

The +: + the situation: hostel well located near bayswater and queensway underground stations. Bus lines pass nearby in the direction of the city centre. Shops nearby in the street of Bayswater (fast food, shops of proximity...) station + price: ideal for young travellers on a small budget + household room every day: even if the hotel seems a little dilapidated at first, the household is made in the rooms every day and the sink of the House is cleaned.

+ Suitable bedding with clean sheets provided at the beginning of stay and a fairly thick comforter.

+ Rooms and stairs access secured by a card without contact.

The-:-showers: A select carefully to avoid surprises... No place to ask his clothes (two hooks for 3 showers if they do are not broken...) - very narrow room with little room for luggage, we had a room for 4 where we used the 4th bed to store business. The window was broken and we could remove it entirely. At the time, she left move from air currents. The lack of space necessary to do the shopping every day because can store nothing.

Only stayed at the Hostel for one night and that was probably enough, the beds were not numbered so finding where we were sleeping caused some problems with other guests. Even thought it was nice to get to know other people in the hostel.

The sheets were not very clean and the toilets were very dirty. But it was a very cheap deal so was ok for one night.

I will not recommend this hostel because the home is poor (except the gardines of night), if you have not booked via the net before you pay double, breakfast same minimum included, everything is paying the magnetic card with a deposit cashed if you do the returned to 10 a.m. tapante, taken 5 books international, is not cleanevacuation of water sometimes are only holes in the ground, little ventilation in showers see no, even an incident occurred by pulling the flush toilet water: any water flooded the room not in the toilet and water, it is impersonal.... the only thing that saves it is the strategic location where this hotel is located!

In short, for a first night in London was really not the right address! And this is not because it is a lot of young people as clients must rent them indecent sites! Must be an ethics that in even in any work! And the iol Insider is good to recall also that the ethics of the travellers and meet fellow also: cleanliness, silence after a certain time and on flight does not!

This "hotel" is a marinade without name, we arrived at 1: 00 in the morning, had to withdraw money to pay cash, because on the blue card the supplement is of 5% with a possible more disadvantageous exchange rate!

In short, I pass you the details on unsafe places, anyway I do not think you want!

At the time to leave, the guy in the reception we to call a friend to him instead of a taxi, and we have paid a high for 15 minutes of taco!

In short, finally, most importantly, are there not going!

Catstrophique!

Yes, the neighbourhood is well, just over Hyde Park, cool shops nearby.

BUT, respect this "hotel" (?): 1. the external facade is lèpreuse, crummy 2. Dirty kitchen because users, fortunately cleaned every day, tiny fridges, 3 rare utensils. "Rustic" showers, no hot water for 3 days, it freezes in summer 4. No carpet on the stairs, it is hip-hop hip-hop hip-hop 5. The room for 4 cost me 72 books by night, it is expensive for what it is; the nails protruding from the floor; Windows closing badly, crumbling Inadmissible, I urge to find nearby hotels that will cost less expensive, and in general the "English breakfast is included, which is not the case here."

Employees are kind, do what they can.

This hotel is the exemeple of capitalist exploitation of merchants of sleep. The owner, Muslim, should reflect in a period of Ramadan, not to exploit the people.

This was a very well situated place as it is very central.

I was shocked as a old fashioned person I did not expect to share my room with other guys. I would love to share my privacy with only other women next time. I will ask for that next time if it is possible.

As I said I stayed there mainly because I wanted to be close to the city.

Restaurant, falta muita higiene (MUITA mesmo), os funcionários não primam pela simpatia (nem sequer our wave o quarto era explicaram, nem os chuveiros, voltar para perguntar porque o hostel é um labirinto absoluto tivemos), decadente com tudo muito a podre cair, muito mau e muito caro, comparado com outros ao longo da mesma rua com muito melhor aspecto.

É mesmo só para chegar tarde, sleep e arrancar cedo No. dia seguinte, os counterpanes não são séculos lavados!

Muito dececionante.

Hi, when I am arrival has London is the first place or I came because it was the least expensive in the hostels found on the net... But, this hostel is horrible. The sanitary are dirty, idem cuisine, it is world bonde, me we were 24 in the House.... In addition, I am part few hours leaving all my large travel bags in the room (no choice) and flies of the stuff I was in my bags! The guy in the reception did nothing to do when I have to say! There are way to find rooms for £ 85 week, then look for good! PS, be also hyper careful everywhere, as in a pub, a fly my thune in my bag, so Be careful! Otherwise, LOndon, this is terrible! :)

The more, the situation, if not for the rest: no need to look at the numbers, you recognize the hostel from outside through the facade completely dilapidated contrasting with the rest of the street.

For the Interior, the pitiful state of maintenance of the building has a few advantages: if showers are full, you do that a stay under the stairs to take your... Obviously, is not a water of first-hand! Good in all ways, step of light in the shower of the girls, not any hook for simply a towel in the shower of boys.

The staff were helpful and professional.

The standard of accommodation - rooms, stairs falling apart and missing carpets, were the lowest I have ever experienced.

I am assuming that the price is lower than other accommodation in London, so beggers can't be elsewise, but it was quite a shock.

Room for 4 with bunk beds, 4 floor.

The room was dirty, a window was broken and was replaced by cardboard. an electric outlet broken with wires protruding, painting out age, soil that and therefore also beds, black (common) showers of dirt... all this for 100 Euro per room and night... In short, a housing as found unfortunately many in London.

However, it is positioned close to the centre. It was well that for him. Camping London centre in the price of a hotel of luxury in the French campaign, in short!

Avoid!

You get what you pay for.

for the price, Iwan't expecting much more than a bed in a dorm room, which is what we got.

I would recommend that you ask for a non-basement room as they are quieter (not oppositied the common room) and probably cooler.

However for a cheap overnight stay in London it is fine.

By Katharina | The 15-06-2011

Not the nicest place you will ever set foot in, but if all you're looking for is a bed then it should suffice.

One gets the impression that not much money is ever put back into this property (think broken windows, no. carpets and walls that have long been in need of a lick of paint) but it does have reasonable facilities.

Internet Katherine can't frielndliest and the staff seemed exorbitantly expensive, considering a lot of hostels have free wi - fi access. Also, don't forget a towel! You will be asked to pay £ 5 to aim one of their own.

By Neil | The 13-06-2011

The room prices are quite cheap too be fair and the location is good too, which is why we thing this hostel.

The reception staff could be more friendly though.

If you get cold easily bring a sleeping bag or extra blanket cause all you get is a very thin blanket to cover yourself and all 4 people in our room were freezing at night as also the window even when closed displayed a huge gap and lots of cold air entered.

The rooms are clean, which is good although there is absolutely nothing to put your stuff. Not one shelf or small table or something like that.

Overall I can see it was alright but I have been in much nice hostels that were equally cheap or even cheaper.

If you want to travel and cheap this is the solution.

the area is very young, there are several supermarkets, all kinds of places to eat cheap, stores and there are two metro stations (queensway and bayswater) that leave you in the direct Center, although you can walk to about 20 min
