The vibe was great! Lots of people from all over the world, cool bar, many events. The place was super clean and modern. Rooms and amenities were comfortable and felt safe. Would totally recommend and go again on my next visit to London. It’s not so close from downtown but easy to get on public transport. Staff was very kind.

Stayed here as a solo female traveler. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I thought this place wasnt that busy, but everyone is at the WomBar! Highly recommended you head down there to socialize. The only issue I had was a weird smell in the bathroom. I'm not sure if that was because I had messy roommates or if there was another issue.

You get what you pay for. Excellent service and staff at front desk . Clean rooms but windows usually difficult to shut and don’t keep all noise out. There will (naturally) be noise until around 10pm inside the hostel. Perfect for a cheap night and early start stay in central London.

My first time staying at a Hostel. So i was skeptic. So I decided to book the 'higher end' 4 bed and still save big $ over a london hotel. I lucked out with great roomies. I was so impressed with the common areas. I didnt cook, but if i go back i will. Some of the dishes were so creative....looked and smelled amazing. Love the bar area too. Taking advantage of the optional and inexpensive locker storage was a huge help. I had a late flight and had time to sight see without having to lug the extras. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

It was my first time staying in a hostel and this was such an amazing stay! The rooms were clean and we had housekeeping everyday! This will be my go to spot every time I stay in London! It’s a fairly quiet are (minus your usually cars passing by) and the fellow residents are respectful when it comes to quiet time. There is a buffet for breakfast and it was quite enjoyable!

Satisfied Frequent Business Traveller...
I've stayed at Wombat's many times when visiting London for work, as it's just near my office... I've always been very satisfied with this place... It's fairly new, it's clean and comfortable, and the rooms are modern... The bathrooms are always great and the showers are nice and hot... The only thing I did not give Wombat's 5 stars on was "comfort", because sometimes the heaters in the rooms can be too hot, and it's difficult to get to sleep... Anyway, that would be my only complaint about Wombat's

Comfortable and Easy
I was recently on a trip that I ended up staying at multiple different hostels and this one was hands down the best for comfort. The location is a bit out of the way but easy enough to get to a train station or walk over towards Tower Bridge. But the room spacious as well as the ensuite shower and toilet. Having the lock box in the bed made it easy to have my phone and other belongings I wanted close right there. The bed was comfortable and the personal fan and bed shade were nice touches. I 100% would and will stay here again on my next visit to London.
