Wombat's City Hostel London Reviews

The room was better than I expected. Each person had their own locker, and the bathroom was very clean. The only downside was that my roommate didn't take a shower, and the smell of feet was quite unpleasant...... Also, someone was smoking ********* outside the window during midnight.

It was a really nice at a great a great location, considering its price and service its one if best stsys I have ever had.

very nice hostel !! great people and overal vibe :) felt like i got in the way of the workers conversation and had a slightly rushed check in experience but apart from that lovely place !

All in all pretty good. Wanted an extortionate amount to store my luggage before check-in though

It was a clean and spacious room bunk beds were clean with new beddings the plus point was I wasvafraid it would be crowded and noisy but it was great no noise issue

The adage, " you get what ya pay for" sums this gem up. Awesome self catering kitchen, Comfy quiet rooms and beds, An on-site bar, Laundry, Excellent friendly staff, Vast chill out spaces, Just a pity about the hot water, maybe it was just the rooms I was in, or they pander to the cautious, not want to scold the weaker ones, but some of us like a hot shower, not a Luke warm, tepid one...

The accommodation is charming and immaculately maintained, boasting a welcoming atmosphere thanks to its friendly staff. It's conveniently located near Tower Bridge, making it an ideal base for exploring the area. This spot offers an excellent mix of comfort and accessibility for a delightful stay.

I’d say this is the best hostel in London tower bridge area. Great facilities and location is just perfect. U can also book breakfast to save on money. They have a bunch of activities but unfortunately I didn’t join in. Had a busy schedule. Reception was very nice and friendly and I wanna appreciate the recommendations made by Reece for places to visit and transportation to take to airport. U could also take a shower if u r just passing by to airport or had some time to kill. But I didn’t know that in advance and had to book a room for another night which I just wasted. It’d have been great if they had option for hours booking room in case someone was just wanna make a pitstop before heading to airport or somewhere else

Clean and tidy, with friendly staff. You also get your own private space thanks to the curtain on the bed. It can be a bit noisy in the morning, though.

Liked it.

Nice service and living environment. I like the design of the room that includes individual toilet and bath room, only share to the roommates. Also, there are curtains for each bed, this is a really nice design! The lockers inside the room are just suitable for 20 inch gip and small backpacks. Some large luggage needs to be put somewhere in the room. The price is affordable. Overall is good.

Very disappointed, I am writing to express my extreme disappointment as I requested a cancellation due to a change in my travel plans. I believe it is standard procedure to receive a refund under these circumstances, especially considering that I made the cancellation request within 30 minutes of booking. despite my request for a refund, I have not received any response from them as they have declined my request.

Do not be fooled by the high 4.4-star rating—this hostel doesn’t deserve any stars. I stayed here for two nights and felt uncomfortable and unsafe throughout my stay. The hostel is a 10-minute walk from Aldgate East station, but the area doesn’t feel safe at all. From the start, my impression was poor. Two security guards were present—one outside and one inside. The guard outside, a man on his phone, was extremely rude, which didn’t help with the sense of security. The lift was broken and unstable, and to make matters worse, the staff assigned me a room on the 8th floor, despite the elevator only going up to the 6th floor. I had to climb stairs to reach my floor. Once in the room, I found weak, shaky lockers that didn’t feel secure at all. If you’re looking for peace of mind and basic comfort, stay elsewhere. There are much nicer hostels available at the same price.

Clean room with friendly roommate. Fuss-free check-in and check-out process. Just that the location was quite far from train station.
