Perfectly positioned for travellers, in being literally across the road from Kings Cross/St Pancras International station, YHA St Pancras offers comfortable and cool, yet affordable, accommodation. The hostel makes a fantastic base for weekends away, budget family breaks and sightseeing holidays. Please note, we do not have a self-catering kitchen available for guests at this hostel, but meals and snacks are available in our cafe-bar. We look forward to welcoming you soon!
This is actually a well-located hostel, very near to the train and underground station. The staff was really nice and they really work hard to make sure guests are enjoying their stay. However, when I was there, one of the lifts that take you to the basement was not working. So if you have quite heavy luggage and need the locker, it can be painful to take the stairs, even if it's only 1 level. The room and bathroom in my room were clean. They have a toilet in the receptionist area, but not sure why I never was able to open the door. Either it was always locked or maybe I did not push enough. I was staying in an all-female room (601 if not mistaken), It only has a bunkbed, and no certain pod to keep some privacy. If you are staying at the upper deck, be careful when climbing as on that part, the part of the ceiling is lower than the rest of the ceiling. it goes for all the bunk beds in that room. Im not sure why they set it that way, but someone can get hurt.

YHA Ambleside is located right on the shore of Lake Windermere, with fantastic views across the Lake to the Langdale hills and mountains.An ideal location to explore the Lakes with Lakeside Restaurant and Bar on site and activities bookable from reception. Offering family rooms and traditional dorm accommodation. Please be aware that parking on site is very limited but staff can point you to nearby alternatives.
Amazing location right on the waterfront with fantastic scenery. Plenty to do on the water. We brought our own kayaks and canoe but there is a facility that hires on the doorstep or you can private hire a motorised boat or view the lakes on several ferries a stones throw away.

Staff are really friendly and very helpful. The facilities are amazing, very clean and food is great. We stayed in a land pod with our dog and it was sooo comfortable and they provide you with wood for the fire pit free of charge.

We had a wonderful stay at YHA Stratford upon Avon during half term. Our children loved the outdoor space especially the trees for climbing. The hostel was busy but never felt crowded. The self-catering kitchen was well-equipped and we appreciated the board games and books in the lounge.

CoDE Pod Hostels – THE CoURT is a former courthouse and jail transformed into CoDE Pod Hostels. THE CoURT by CoDE will feature cool holding cells as private rooms, POD beds dormitories, an underground bar in our close and the original Courtroom will be converted in a cool sleeping studio with pod beds. CoDE Pod Hostel is an urban concept designed to give travellers a central location and quality sleeping environment at a low cost. The Asian-style pod concept is the main unique design feature combined with secure keypad entry systems which the name “CoDE” was derived from. Our hostels are unique and centrally located in the vibrant and beautiful Edinburgh city centre within walking distance to most major sights and we are conveniently located on connections to and from the airport. The train and bus station are just a few minutes walk from our hostel.
I couldn't possibly pick what I liked most about my stay at the CoDE Hostel - the Court. The accommodations, the location, the price, the people, the staff, EVERYTHING! As a solo female traveller in my early 20s, I felt completely safe and felt I could go to the staff if I needed any help (or had any travels or concerns, which I didn't). The next time I return to Edinburgh (which you can bet I will be, in the not so distant future if I have my way), I won't even look for somewhere new to stay, this will be the place for me!

Welcome to the multiple award winning boutique backpackers Palmers Lodge, where you can experience Victorian elegance in the former home of Samuel Palmer, of the Huntley and Palmer's biscuit empire. Built in 1881, this substantial house has been restored to its original glory in order to offer our guests not just budget accommodation but also a unique experience during their stay in London.
Starting with the reception staff, Very friendly and polite Staff Members and also professional at the same time. The Beds : different Locations, Like Separate homes in one development some are high up on the top floor, and some are on the ground floor of the room, luckily I tried both during my 7-night stay. and felt comfortable in Both. Showers and Toilets : Nice and Large, super hot shower rooms, however, toilets are a little tight for a big man like me. Cleaning : 10 out of 10 - where ever you go you find the cleaning team moving around or cleaning beds, mirrors, toilets, and Lobby - they only miss the smoking area. I believe it can be looked after in a better way Parking : whether you are driving a Rolls Royce or a Mini Cooper, your car will be safe and the mansion Paring space they have is enough. and Speaking of mansions - this is one of the most inspiring building designs my Eyes ever caught. Food : They serve Breakfast at the Bar in the morning with all you can Eat for £6.50 plus free coffee and cold filtered water. But you can also store - cook your own food in a separate Guest Kitchen. Laundry : you have it all, From a Professional washing machine, Dryers to an Iron table and an Iron. Security : as I mentioned, you feel at your home so it's super safe with your own biometric Card key to access not only your room but all amenities. they even have a library - computer sections and Makeup sections with good lights and if you are lucky you will be able to extend your stay there for up to 14 Days to discover more of the Great City of London. Highly Recommended - and well done to the Team who changed the perspective of staying in a hostel, from feeling that I will be staying in a Jail cell in the Nuremberg prison and feeling anxious into a comfortable stay in 47 Park street Marriot Hotel, Mayfair Excitements. Book Now and Enjoy your stay at the amazing Palmers Lodge Swiss Cottage.

Stay below the impressive Glyder mountains with views of the Nant Ffrancon Valley at this former quarry manager’s cottage. Recently refurbished and great for families, you can be sure of a warm welcome at this environmentally-conscious hostel. All levels of walks can be found in the immediate area, and you won’t need to travel far for world-class mountain bike trails. It’s perfectly placed for strolls to see Rhaeadr Ogwen Waterfalls or Cwm Idwal nature reserve (with its dramatic lake) and Devil’s Kitchen.
A little gem nestled in an awesome location with its own private car park (glad it has its own otherwise parking would be a problem). It’s ideally located for walkers to discover the Ogwen Valley or to venture to Anglesey or Snowdon. The hostel itself is a little beauty, I had the single bedroom. Perfect for solo travellers or families. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable.

Had a really nice time staying overnight, staff were very helpful with check-in and plenty of information about the city is available to tourists. Has all the necessary facilities though I didn’t use any bar the toilet which was clean! The only issue was that the pillows on the bed weren’t the comfiest so I’d advise asking for an extra pillow for better support. Otherwise, the price was incredibly reasonable for what was available.

Amazing weekend at Keswick YHA for the Keswick Beer Festival. The staff were extremely helpful, the location was ideal (room over looking the beautiful river!), the bar was spot on and the room was perfect. The toilet and shower facilities were immaculate. No complaints and all, and would completely recommend.
