Hostels in Greater London, United Kingdom

Small but perfectly formed. I've stayed here three times already, and the experience is always excellent. The self-service check-in is super convenient, and there are always staff members nearby to assist. This time I noticed they've added three new elevators, which makes things even smoother. The location is superb, close to Chinatown.

I stayed at Cosmos Capsule Coworking London again, for the second time, and had a pleasant experience overall like I had during my first visit. This capsule hotel offers a unique blend of accommodation and coworking space at an affordable price. Located on Hanbury Street, just an 11-minute walk from Aldgate East station, its central location makes it accessible. Just outside the hotel, at 67 Hanbury Street, is Chaii Town, a charming Chai and Coffee shop that I highly recommend. They offer a great variety of Chai flavors and pastries. I tried their Ginger Chai and Chai Latte, both of which were delicious. Their exotic pastries, like Dubai Cookies and Matcha Cookies, pair perfectly with the aromatic Chai. The owner was wonderful, and the hospitality was exceptional. The capsules are well-designed and functional, featuring ambient lighting with customizable colors—blue, pink, green, yellow, or white. Each capsule also includes a TV screen and headphones, though I didn’t use them during my stay. The capsules are not soundproof, so a good night’s rest depends on the courtesy of fellow guests. Fortunately, everyone during my stay were considerate, and I slept well. Earbuds are provided in the capsule just in case. The shared spaces, including the showers and toilets, were very clean. The shared kitchen area includes essentials like a sink, microwave, kettle, tea, and cups. One standout feature is the massage chair in the common area, which offers a good massage after a long day. There’s no traditional reception desk; instead, check-in is automated via a WhatsApp message or email with an access code. This code grants entry to the building and a small box containing your key card. While the shared spaces were immaculate, the capsules could use a bit more attention. I noticed hairs from previous guests on the blanket. Overall, Cosmos Capsule Coworking London is a good option for budget-conscious travelers who need a comfortable place to stay and work.

I stayed here during my solo trip, and I’m so happy I chose this hostel! Its location is absolutely perfect right in the heart of the city. Thanks to that, I was able to visit all of London’s top attractions in just two days, and everything was within easy reach. The hostel was a great base for exploring the city, especially as a solo traveler. I had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting London!

There is a women-only area, and only guests with a key card can enter. The women-only section has two bathrooms and one room with a maximum capacity of 10 people. The bunk beds are not very sturdy, so if the person on the top bunk moves, you can feel the vibration on the bottom bunk. For this reason, I wouldn’t recommend it to light sleepers. I stayed for 8 nights and only received two towels in total—one of them only after I asked for it myself. The bathrooms were clean, and tea was available for free. There is no laundry room, so you’ll need to use the nearest laundrette. The common room has a kettle, a microwave, and a small fridge.

Enjoyed this stay and particularly wanted to shout out Gerard who went above and beyond to make it a fun stay for us and our friends! Great location, good stay, as always easy check in and checkout. Would recommend!

Budget accommodation in great location for BST Hyde Park concerts and very close to Paddington Station and tube. Also lots of restaurants and shops within a short walk. Was irritated to arrive at premises and find a note on the door saying I had to check in at another hotel a short walk away first. However, staff there were very friendly and someone escorted me back to Atlas Studios after checking in. Room clean and nice to have a kitchenette. Also a fan, which was essential as it was during the heatwave. However, there was no TV in the room despite the Facilities section on Atlas Studios website saying 'TV in Room'. I would not have booked here if I had known there was no TV, so this was very disappointing.

整體環境不太理想。優點是距離河邊比較近，走十幾分鍾可以到加拿大水地鐵站，公交其實不太方便的，C10和381，去景點得倒車花很多時間。設施也很一般，在公路旁邊晚上非常非常非常吵，很難入睡。洗澡水太小了，要花很久時間才能洗好。廚房在地下室，而且沒有排氣扇，面積又小，要輪候做飯。入住不復雜，明顯很希望推銷他們的早餐和其他餐飲服務。價格也不便宜，不推薦。

This hostel isn’t bad overall. The rooms are very small, even by hostel standards, but the location is excellent—just a few minutes’ walk from London Bridge—and the price is reasonable. However, be very careful if you’re booking one of their Edinburgh branches. I booked a bed for three nights but couldn’t check in on the first day because of a transportation delay. I contacted the hostel and submitted a request to let them know, but they never responded. When I arrived on the second day, they told me my entire booking had been cancelled, I had lost my bed, and they refused to refund my money. They also said they had no beds available and that I would have to find another hotel. As a result, I had to book a hotel at the last minute, which cost me $180 per night. This was a terrible experience. They effectively sold the same bed twice while keeping my money and refusing to issue a refund. I would not recommend booking with their Edinburgh branches.

This hostel is pretty good. It's within a 10-minute walk of two different Tube lines, and right next to the Tower of London and Tower Bridge, making transportation really convenient. I booked an all-female 6-bed dorm, and the privacy was excellent. There's a separate door that requires a key card, so I felt very safe. There's a kitchen on the basement level. I'd recommend buying groceries from a nearby supermarket to make your own breakfast or bringing instant noodles, as the hostel's breakfast selection is quite limited – they don't even have eggs. The self-catering kitchen is a great perk for those who prefer to cook their own meals. Being so close to the Tube, it can get a bit noisy at night, but after a long day of sightseeing, I was usually so tired I slept soundly anyway. For anyone visiting London looking for an affordable and convenient place to stay, this is a great choice and very clean.

Our stay was unfortunately very disappointing. Before arrival, we specifically requested a quiet room. Instead, we were given a very small room located directly above the reception area. The room offered almost no storage space, only a small coat rack, which was not suitable for two guests staying several nights. The bathroom was extremely small, with a tiny sink and very poor ventilation. After one shower, the entire bathroom became humid, making it uncomfortable for the second person to use it. Sound insulation was almost non-existent. Conversations from rooms above and below were clearly audible, as if they were happening inside our room. The worst experience occurred during our last night, when a group of teenagers arrived. They were extremely noisy, running through the corridors and stairs late at night. Around 11:30 pm, they even knocked loudly on our door and ran away. This was unacceptable and very distressing, especially as we were already asleep. For these reasons, we cannot recommend this property. We regret this experience, as we had hoped for a peaceful and comfortable stay.
