YHA London St Paul's recensioner

The staff are friendly and St. Paul's Cathedral is right in front.

Clean rooms, friendly staff, and an excellent location. Very good value 👍

Niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I love ittttttttttttt

nice hostel, very close to church so you have to tolerate midnight clock.

Бил хорошо хорошей мета удобства👍

The food portions were tiny rooms were tiny the water had particals in it the milk isnt milk mattresses are thin short and hard that isnt all the bin was broken and people were making so much noice we were getting ding dong ditches all night. That is all i have to say but there is way more

I went for a day on a whistle stop to Brighton and boy was it great! The staff were lovely and the vending machines are always, always, always stocked! The decoration is also lovely and modern with a tube map on the wall! Speaking of tubes, there is a station really near so you can easily travel

I stayed here for work for three nights. It was awful. I was in a room with one colleague and it was a room for four with two bunk beds. We had a bottom bunk each. The bunks are metal and creak every time you move. There was one small sink in the room. The showers were not far away and they were okay. Clean enough and the water a good temperature. The toilets were in need of some attention. Sometimes the flush was a bit dodgy and some of the cubicles were tiny, you barely had room to move inside them. The corridors were old and the floors made loud noises every time someone went up and down outside. The stairs up to the rooms are being held up by scaffolding poles that you have to navigate around to get up and down. But the WORST thing about this place is that it is just across the road from St Pauls Cathedral and the bells are rung every 15 minutes through the whole night. It's like they are going off right next to your head. There is no double glazing in the building or any other form of soundproofing. I was ill from sleep deprivation by the time I left.

I'm a big YHA fan and have stayed in many wonderful hostels around the country. This experience was without question the worst. We were in a room on the top floor that was ridiculously hot and uncomfortable. Even in the morning when the temperature outside was 15 degrees, inside the room it was still hot and stuffy. The night before and overnight when it was warmer outside was worse / hell. They know it is too hot as they place a large fan in the room, but turning this on is just noisy and not conducive to sleep / just blows warm air over you. The windows hardly open and certainly not enough for any form of breeze to come through. Due to the heat, my daughter got 1-2 hours sleep. I got just 4 hours sleep. We needed large amounts of water to get through the night. It was also the room not the hostel as communal areas had comfortable temperatures. Never will I step foot inside this hostel again. Nor was it cheap. £187 for the night for four people. A complete rip off for what we received which I wouldn't wish on anyone.

Stayed here for one night in a single room. Great value for money. The hostel it self was quite but you cann here the bells from St pauls cathedral, however there was free ear plugs at reception if need. The shower tiny so be prepared for that. The breakfast was good. No lift so lots of stairs, but that's due to the nature of the building. You can leave luggage before checkin and on check out. Easy to find and in a great location for exploring

I loved the character and the location was where I wanted to be. I stayed in the posh suite and used recommended ear plugs. (The bells). Staff great. Lounge available. Room pristine.

On the plus side, the breakfast was filling and the location (for St Paul's) excellent. On the down sides, it has no members kitchen. Not even a kettle or microwave. After a days sightseeing, staff told us that they did not serve evening food (contrary to their own website). Only large groups get that offer. The hostel is incredibly noisy. Earplugs are essential. St Paul's bells are tolerable. The pubs nearby are loud. The rubbish is collected throughout the night. I think someone was cleaning the showers, gone 1am. The hostel feels tired and worn. Fitments in the bathrooms are broken. Windows I'll fitting. I've been to many hostels over the last 20 years. I've seen a lot better.

Rock hard bed ,fan didn’t work, rude ,dirty breakfast looked of Constant knocking from other people complaining of noise they were making , other people staying were rude and loud no privacy bad stay

Found out the charger won’t work in my room on my checkin day. I spoke to the receptionist, and raised my insecurity about her suggestion to plug in one of the wall chargers which is further away from me. Then, we came up either an extendable charger or change of room. She was being super helpful, and I settled with change of room as the charger works. The room is decent for the price. There are common areas for you to sit, and it is a good space for you to do some works. Location is very good since it is right in the center. Security seems quite good cause the main door and your room, both require the issued key card to access. - I want to highlight the shower because the shower head is flexible and the water temperature is adjustable, and I was happy about that. But, the space is small. - Bed sheet & duvet cover look fresh and clean, the mattress is comfy, and duvet doesn’t seem too clean. It is pity that WIFI signal doesn’t cover the room but the common areas only.
