Palmers Lodge - Hillspring at Willesden Green Reviews

I really loved this place!

The hostel is pretty nice. Clean, safe and comfortable. It is a little bit distant from the touristic attractions and cool areas of London, but is close enough to the tube. Also, this hostel is not very fun, but the staff is very helpful and the pub is nice! They have good breakfast too.

it is amazing that their staff make Hillspring so clean everywhere and anytime even inthe kitchen area! The atmosphere is wonderful and who doesn't like stay there?

We stayed there for 5 days and it was really good. The Bathrooms are clean, the breakfast is ok, you also get a croissant. And the wine at the bar in the evening is cheap and good, we almost spend every evening there. The only thing i can complain about is that in our room, it was the 14-bed-mixed-dorm in the 4th floor, you heared the elevator moving, but therefor i used some earplugs. If i will visit London again, i would stay there again because the price-quality ratio is really good.

For the price you pay, this place wasn't the best. The average age of the guests was probably 30-40, which isn't ideal when you're 21 and travelling by yourself. The place was also very quiet and out of the way. Good for families or business men stopping on their way through town, but not for young backpackers like myself

I wish there was more variety for the breakfast and not just carbs (bread, croissants, cereal). Some fruit would be nice to help keep everyone healthier with all the travel everyone's doing. Also, I wish there were maybe some events organized in the hostel to encourage people talking with and meeting new people. But overall the stay was nice and I appreciated the safe environment and the cleanliness.

Great hostel. Offers everything you need for a good stay. Very very clean!

It´s a nice place to stay somde days with friends. A little noise room mates at night but it´s not hostel fault´s. Totally recommend it. Thanks!

Really good hostel. I would recomend it to anyone I know. The only problem I had was that in my room was a member of the staff that worked on the night shift. While he was trying to sleep during the day we couldn't talk in the room, which is a bummer, since we want to meet people. So I would give a suggestion for the staff to have a separated room from the costumers, so that some night shift staff members can sleep and us, costumers, are able to talk.

The large groups at the hostel 100+ really changes the atmosphere. I felt lost in a noisy herd. I'm sure that's where the money is though.

Rooms smelled nasty. We were not informed that the kitchen was closed for dinner because of a new arrived group. We come back to the hostel to eat dinner but we can't order. So we have to go out again to get something to eat. It is no problem that the kitchen was closed because of this but it was a problem that we get no information about this e.g. by an poster during breakfast. Bathroom was top clean!

Best hostel I've stayed in. A little far from central London, but a really nice place. Need to give more detailed directions to your location on web site.

First we had a double room on the second floor which was really nice. Then we had to change rooms and got a room in the basement... Which was not so need. It was a really noisy room especially during the night, caused by the staff while moving around bottles and dishes until 2am. It would have been nice to have some courtains to darken the room. I would recommend the hostel but not the room in the basement!!!

Very accommodating and friendly staff. Bathrooms quite small in some of the rooms.

I had a wonderful surprise with this hostel and surely recommand it to anyone who needs to pass by London for a few days!

Very clean, but it wasn't too close to the city center.

I stayed in a six person mixed dorm, and I was very impressed with the atmosphere and comfort of the hostel. There were curtains on the beds, so I had plenty of privacy, and the restaurant/lounge area was fun and comfortable. The staff were always very helpful and friendly. There is also no curfew, so you won't get locked out at night! I would definitely stay there again!

Staff at the reception didn't welcome us, at all. They haven't been friendly, but they knew what to do. Instead of welcoming and looking for the guests they chatted to each other. There is only one shower for a lot of rooms, but we never had to wait. The rooms are small but functional. Wifi is rather spare and complicated.

It is a safe and clean hostel. I was very pleased with how tidy the premises were - especially the shower! The guys at the reception were sweethearts. The breakfast was a croissant, toast, mysli and a watery juice & coffee, so don't expect eggs and bacon. :)

Took about 30 minutes by Metro to get here from central London. Wasn't really worth the time, but the staff was quite accommodating. They have 24-hour reception which is really handy, especially if you plan on checking out quite late at night or early in the morning.
