Inside Report

Just a few minutes walk from the exciting nightlife of Coven Garden, Leicester, and Piccadilly Circus, this huge futuristic hostel is a good choice for those who prefer the large hostel experience. They've got all the amenities you would expect in a big city hostel; a bar, a game room, a big TV room, and an tourist center. Friendly pubs and a rich cosmopolitan flavor make London a must see on any European trek. The absence of a language barrier for Australian and US travelers makes it much easier for them to rub elbows with the locals and really experience the culture outside of the hostel.
