The hostel was very clean and tidy great value for money. Only negative is that the room was so so hot and the pillows were really hard.

I didn't like that all there was to eat was bread and cornflakes, that isn't much of a "continental breakfast" as one would say. Previously to going to bed, I showered and dried my hair. I didn't like the fact that I paid almost what it would cost for a hotel and I didn't even have a real pillow case, my face and hair ended up greasy after sleeping one night. I found it to be a nice place but too expensive for what I received. If the breakfast was better, my rating would be better.

Hassan was quite rude to us (and the other women he works with). He accused us of not having paid the entire amount, which we had, and wouldn't let us explain it had been transferred through the bank. My colleague and I tried to avoid him the rest of our stay because he wasn't polite. He was the only downside of our stay.

it's an excellent trip in Smart Hyde Park View hotel, but if the wifi sign more stronger it will be better. Customers cannot reach wifi sign on the third floor above.

This place was way over priced and unwilling to compromise with my group. There was 6 of us and we were jammed into a closet.

Cheap, decent location, rooms are extremely cramped and hot. They have triple bunk beds which are not the besg because every time you climb onto it you wake everyone in your bunk up because they're not very stable.

We stayed in the twin ensuite. The rooms are very small but it was always clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. The location was well lit and safe and a stones throw from Hyde Park, Kennsington Palace and the Orangery. The breakfast was sufficient and standard. The location is only a five minute walk from two tube stations that give you access to three different lines. The only drawback is that it is easy to hear street noises at night; light sleepers take note. It's good value for the $

Very nice location, less than a minutes walk to Hyde Park and the neighbourhood seemed very safe. Staff were always helpful and accommodating and the loungeroom downstairs made you feel as if you were staying in a comfortable house. Not a fan of the 6 bed rooms which are two bunk beds 3 beds high. Getting up there was a pain, but only because I was at the top haha. Loved the built-in curtains on the beds, gave you a lot more privacy. Would definitely stay here again!

it was amazing! I'm already telling my friends to go there. it is really cheap and really tidy, the staff is really nice and you can take all your food and drinks to the dining room, 24h a day. I strongly recommend it and will certainly come back!

I found the common area a pretty unwelcoming place. One time at breakfast there were so many people I had to sit on the floor. Triple level bunks were uncomfortable and hard to sleep with so many peopłe moving.
