Property Description
A safe haven in the middle of the metropolis: We took a traditional brick building with roots dating back to the 1800s and set a new standard for hostel life in the UK. What was once sailors' accommodation is now a hostel that caters for all the needs of the modern traveller. With great attention to detail, we have created a hostel in London that celebrates the heritage of our historic building. The old oak that once formed part of sturdy ships and churches is now immortalised in our furnishings throughout the house. The beers you drink here will be served on a bar made from 500 year old wood! Our Wombat's City Hostel is located in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, right next to the famous Tower Bridge and Tower of London, charming markets, authentic pubs and many other places of historical interest. A short walk will take you to trendy Shoreditch with its vibrant street art, the lively nightlife of Hoxton Square and Old Street and finally Brick Lane, which has become one of the most popular spots. All other London attractions are easily accessible by public transport: Aldgate East and Tower Bridge underground and DLR stations are just a stone's throw away. After a long and exciting day in London, our hostel awaits you with a cosy courtyard, a spacious lobby with our own WomCAFÉ (exclusive Wombat's Roast included) and WomBAR. All rooms are equipped with en-suite bathroom and private lockers. Includes: - Bed linen. - WiFi. - WomCAFÉ - The WomBAR for endless parties. - A guest kitchen open to all who want to satisfy their own culinary needs. - 24/7 reception. - Secure luggage storage. - Rental items (umbrellas, hairdryers, adaptors: everything a traveller could need). - Coin-operated laundry facilities (washing and drying), so you can revitalise your clothes! Our famous Tasty Brekkie buffet guarantees you enough energy for your exciting day in London. You can buy breakfast for an economical price at reception. Exploring Europe? Don't miss out on our Wombat's in Budapest, Leipzig, Munich and Vienna (Minimum age 18 years).

It was a pretty good spot and nice location. Some good breakfast spots nearby, and fairly close to the tube as well. Rooms are nice, with the included fan in May it was fairly comfortable to sleep in. However if you're a hot sleeper the lack of AC could be problematic in the summer. The lack of a hand towel for the bathroom seemed like a bit of an oversight. The bar area in the basement is really cool.

很可愛的一個小青旅,可以遇到來自世界各地的朋友,有廚房可以自己做飯,樓下Bar的吐司也很好吃,可以打乒乓球玩各種遊戲,房間環境也可以接受有單獨的浴室和衞生間,有帶鎖的櫃子安全性沒問題

Hostel is good for tourists touring tower hamlet to Tate modern etc young occupants but best kitchen if you like cooking. Bar nearby to kitchen which makes localisation perfect with courtyard space

Good place to stay, within walking distance to Tower of London and Tower Bridge. It was quite hot in the summer because there was no air conditioner in the room.
