Great option for solo travel!
Michela, 5-night trip

Female solo traveler
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
Patrick, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.

10/10 Exceptional

The hostel is in the perfect location of Central London. Makes it easy to get anywhere by transit, walking or taking a bike. The rooms were good and everyone was very respectful. The cafe and bar were great which created a very welcoming place for a solo traveler to meet new people. Will stay again in the future.

Germán, 1-night trip

Fantastic hostel. Clean facilities, good safes, many amenities, and a welcoming atmosphere. The hangout areas were a special plus. My only critique is that the washing machines should have better instructions, because I accidentally had to pay extra since I didn’t understand them. Besides that, incredible time :-)

Very safe hostel- there are lockers inside the rooms that only your keycard can unlock to keep items safe
