To summarise, a backpacker hostel in London compared to a budget hotel in London, have shared dormitory rooms in addition to more traditional twin and double rooms which hotels have. Youth Hostels also have a younger and more relaxed feel too them, our typical guest is a college or university traveller away from home for the first time coming for a short sightseeing or shopping trip, but we still have many families and guests of all ages staying with us

Providing a safe hostel and accommodation is one of our main concerns. We have staff working 24 hours a day, full CCTV coverage, key card access to the rooms and the entry gates at night, there are safes in reception and lockers in each room.

Setup in 2006 as a budget accommodation in London but with a unique and stylish feel which then progressed to be a hostel London. The Palmers Lodge Swiss Cottage site was the first in the chain and was the former lodge of Lord Palmer, who was made famous due to a huge biscuit empire.
