Smart Hyde Park Inn Hostel

It was a mistakes for me to book that youth hostel. I regretted it and I won’t go back there again. The guests are polite by the way.

All rounder clean and has a nice vibe about it also it is a good location you cant go wrong

Desk members are good. Friendly and helpful to the people. Warm care to the guests.

In the London neighbourhood of Bayswater, in zone 1, getting here from Central London on bus 23, is a nice bus ride to see big buildings. The hostel has a TV and a DVD reader to play music, there are plenty of tables and chairs. I slept in bed 1 in room 93, which had 16 bunk beds. At night I stayed on my bed using the WiFi with my light on. In the morning I had the breakfast provided, which I got free because I gave the hostel a review.

One of the best hostel I have ever experienced in central London. Everything is so near. Edgware Underground station is just 1 minutes away from the hostel. Strategic location and super easy to commute. The staff are extremely friendly and sweet. Although The beds are very small but clean and not smelly. Washrooms too. Highly recommended and i will definitely come back for my next summer holidays. Thanks!

A nice place to stay. Good location and nice staff service.!

Only recommended if you're staying one single night and you're desperate for a cheap one close to the centre because some basic amenities are not provided but that is what you're paying for. Room 2/5 I stayed in a 9 bed dorm. The bed length fits just ok for someone a little under 6 feet but you are unable to sit up properly as the spaces between bunks is too small and you will most likely hit your head. There is a charging port and bed light on the wall of your bed. The step on the ladder to get to your bunk (if you're not at the bottom) is just a little high that makes it uncomfortable coming up and down. There are lockers at the bottom of the bunks which is spacious enough to put a hand carry luggage and backpack in but there is no lock. They offer you to buy a lock for £4.50 at the front desk. I think it'd be better if they let you borrow one and if you can't return it then charge you extra. There is one bathroom which is shared and is a little cramped. There's not really a place for me to put a towel on. Around half of the toilet bowl is below the sink making it difficult to sit down properly. However, there are other showers and toilets in other rooms which you can freely use. No towel is provided but you can buy them at the front desk for around £2.50. No shampoo or soap is provided either but I assume you can buy these as well. A lot of these can be considered nitpicks but just like when you accumulate too many minors in a driving test, it becomes a major issue that hampered my experience while I was staying there. I will say that the room, bed and bathrooms were clean and are regularly maintained. The staff were friendly enough and I heard them speaking multiple European languages so they may be able to accommodate for you if you're not fluent in English. Location 4/5 The only really good thing is the area is close to the centre and even just outside the hostel there's a Sainsbury's, pubs, a park and an underground station 30 seconds away. If you're touring around the city centre, you'll get there in 20 minutes from the hostel. Overall 3/5 I recommend spending at most an extra 20% for a better hostel if you're staying for more than one night. At that price you should be getting a comfortable bed, towels provided and a locker to store your bags in securely.

An OK place which I stayed at a few years ago. It does a good breakfast for £6.50. Only hindrance for me is it has 45 years old age limit - they let me stay this time in a dorm but said next time I've got to book a room.

Too small toilet and shower - good beds, good air conditioning , guests don’t follow the rules - a bit too loud at 00.00 and ppl Eating inside the room… good lockers… near everything , affordable…
