Palmers Lodge - Swiss Cottage Reviews

Room 001 had enough space, no cramped feeling. The individual curtains are really great and provide some privacy within a 24-bed dorm. Only problem was noise. With the wooden floor you could hear every footstep at night. The key card door lock is quite loud at night. Apart from that, the hostel was a real surprise, considering all the other options in London. The staff was nice and helpful. Only complaint, as with any other hostel, are the travellers who are inconsiderate of other people.

I guess the standard of hostels in London just isn't very good. I don't know if there are going to be many places better than this one - close to tube, there's enough showers and the building's nice - but although the staff generally tried to be friendly, they just weren't very helpful. I ran into some trouble with 8 drunken guys staying in the 9 bed dorm I was in at 4am. Situation didn't really get resolved and I ended up sleeping in a chair in the communal lounge before moving rooms next night

Fantastic hostel! incredibly cozy house with vintage stylish furniture. free internet available also in the room. Very friendly staff!

should have more hostel events should have/allow more of a party atmosphere. In other words, you should allow people to bring their own drinks to the hostel and drink it there, have music playing. should have room lighting in the big dorms the nachos i had were stale...buy new nachos please :)

It has no kitchen but other than that it is a very nice place to stay. However, I need a kitchen.

This was my third visit to PL, I feel good coming here.

Great hostel n great staff
