I stayed at Palmers Lodge for three nights, and it was my first time ever staying at a hostel. It was truly eye-opening — I now realize hostels should always be an option when choosing where to stay, because my experience was so positive!

Honestly, all I need is a bed and an available bathroom and shower. I travel to explore places, not to sit around in a hotel room all day, so a hostel is definitely the way to go — and you can save a lot of money in the process.

This particular hostel was fantastic. It's close to the Underground, and the building itself is a charming, rustic British structure full of character. There's a cozy lounge area where you can relax before heading to bed. The bathrooms were clean and clearly well-maintained on a daily basis, and the showers were refreshing — I never had to wait in line for one.

It was a charming, inexpensive place to stay overall. My bunk even had a privacy curtain, its own light and wall socket, and the room stayed nice and cool through the summer.

Beautiful building although dated.
The dormitory room on the first floor had approximately 9 bunk beds it was awkward. Clearly reflects £29.00 per night. Otherwise fairly clean throughout. No hotfood for breakfast only continental. Parking is cheap. 10 pounds for 24 hours. Good location.
12.07.2026 Nia
Amazing hostel! Stayed one night for a concert in London. The building is gorgeous. Lounge is full of sofas and chairs, very comfy. No check in until 14:00 but we were able to wait in the lounge. The room was nice, beds were comfy and felt private despite being a 10 bed dorm. Couldn't ask for better. Definitely stay here if you're in London 😍😍
24.06.2026 McKenna
Great place to stay for a couple of nights if you want to avoid the chaos of Central London. We booked an all female dorm but the bathrooms/shower rooms were unisex and shared with the bar downstairs which we didn’t know and was kind of weird.

Beds were super comfortable, our room in the basement was super quiet. Everything was very clean. The lockers in the rooms are not big enough to fit luggage, but they do have paid luggage storage (6£ for 24 hrs for the large locker). 5ish minute walk to the tube - it’s about 30 min from Central London and most of the touristy areas, an hour from the airport. Cute little bar, patio area to hang out and play games.

Overall, loved it and would stay again!

Great location, next to the tube, in a quiet area. Dorms are confortable, and a lot of facilities are available (kitchen, laundry, storage). Great value for the price.
However if you book a female only dorm, you will have access to unisex showers. For the basement rooms the showers/toilets are shared with the bar, so it can be a little unconfortable.
Also there seems to be some people "living" in the hostel (2 olders women in our 8 bed room spend all the days in the dorm, hanging clothes, keeping food, complaining when someone was talking) so it is not really a place to make encounters like some others youth hostels if that's what you are looking for !

+ A nice place, building,outside, inside, near the centre of London. Friendly people of the hotel to help you.
- The toilet, the bathroom A real English breakfast, with beans, bratwurst ...
04.07.2018 Ahmer
Decent hostel. Has lots of character. Pleasant and helpful staff. A bit disappointed tea and coffee didn't have milk in the lounge, but I guess I was okay using my own. Sofa spaces go quickly because it is popular with tourists. No fried eggs or scrambled eggs for breakfast, only boiled. Generally has lots to offer.

This is the best hostel I ever stay in London. it located in zone 2, a very classic and elegant building which built 140 years ago, it located in a peace and quiet community, got supermarkets nearby. Staff inside are helpful and friendly, they would offer you good suggestions to anywhere. Loos are very clean and tidy, the common areas are comfortable, never imagine there is a pub down the stairs but unfortunately they are fixing the genius’s tap so I have to try another brand. Overall, it’s a good hostel that sits near the City of London and you could travel to the airport conveniently.
27.06.2018 Maya
A beautiful building and it definitely has it's charme. But the rooms are a bit small as well as the beds and there are too few showers and toilets (at least when there are many people in the hotel). Receptionists were super friendly and polite, breakfast tasted good.
23.05.2018 Rebecca
My stay at this hostel was my first ever hostel stay, and I loved it! Everything was very clean, and my dorm was pretty quiet. All beds have light blocking curtains, so there's plenty of privacy and others' lights don't keep you up. I have had no issue with bathrooms or showers, and there's a cute bar and restaurant that serves breakfast in the morning, which is very convenient. Its right off the subway, so very easy access to the city. Highly recommend.

Refused to take the Metro vouchers, after I heard the staff discuss whether the offer applied to "premium subs" (nothing of which was mentioned in the T&Cs), they eventually landed on "this store isn't participating". Luckily I had Googled the list of participating stores (from the subway website) as I was in the queue which said otherwise. The fact I had to have that list on me is a disgrace though.
18.10.2017 Gueorgui
Really bad service. I had 4 fillings - letice, peppers, onions and olives. The letice pieces you could count just by glancing at the sandwich. I asked if I could have a little bit more of it and he replyed "here is extra olives". Almost laughed thinking he made a joke. Well he didn't.
Now I'm enjoying my next to no letice and extra olives sandwich. 18.10.17 at 7.30 am
07.10.2017 Butter
Eaten from here twice and both times the sandwich has tasted weird. The staff are also rude and ignore when you request them to do something that will cost them an extra couple of seconds.
09.08.2017 Johnathon
The atmosphere is very nice. The place is very clean and tidy and was given good service. Will come again when I am near by.

Really good food selection. Gavin is very welcoming and professional. Would recommend definitely. Louie the mechanic.
