It's a really nice hostel and in a great location with easy access to Greenwich and the City via DLR. Only downside is the music being played to 2am on a Friday and Saturday night. Don't stay here if you want to sleep before 2am cause it ain't gonna happen!

When I arrived in Greenwich, I was ill and in bed for two nights. The staff was amazing and brought me tea and checked in on me. I was much appreciated.

Apart from the disco downstairs on the Friday/Saturday which wasn't much of a problem and I'd actually forgotten about, I thought it was nice friendly little place. The staff were pleasant and an interesting mix. Nice eggs benedict and the dinner I had on Saturday 12th was good too. Nice to chill in the sun with the doors open on Sunday morning. I'd stay there again and recommend it to others.

The station next to the hostel was closed on Sunday. In that case, it is really long and complicated to get ton London center. The place is cheap, but DIRTY ! We found hair on the pillows, and dirt on the linen ! The showers ain't really nor clean (man underpants left there for two days), nor nice to use. And when they plan a party, be sure to participate or to be far away because there's no way you'll be able to sleep. The breakfast is barely unexisting. Luckily, the staff is nice and helpful

The hostel is located just next to the Greenwich DLR station. However, Greenwich is a little bit out of the city and we had to take at least 2 trains daily to go and come back from the city's attractions. Pros: the rooms are clean and spacious; the bar is REALLY lively and fun. Cons: the bathrooms were duty most of the time; if lucky, the shower is tepid.

The hostel is very conveniently located next to Greenwich station, meaning the social life of London or a work commute are nice and easy. The 24 hour 188 bus runs right past the hostel also. Regarding the actual hostel itself, the staff are very helpful and the rooms clean. Breakfast is good too and the nice atmosphere in the hostel plus cheap drink prices make for a memorable stay. I would highly recommend this hostel to anyone looking to stay in the heart of Greenwich at a reasonable cost.

Good location, easily access to the central district. The bathing facilities are well managed, clean and tidy. The paid breakfast is of reasonal price. The Wi-fi network is excellent.

Quite noise at night so bring your ear plugs. This is the same as any hostel though.

I've already written an email to your feedback address - so I don't mean to be redundant. Most friendly, warm environment. Staff are attentive, sincerely friendly and helpful, and always laughing. Very generous and helpful - although so very busy - they always made the time to make me and others feel welcome and at home. Never quite experienced this from a hostel before. Aurelien - a fabulous host, ever so kind and generous. Great security, cleaning done regularly, discounts, smiles. thx

I loved St. Christopher's Greenwich!!! Seriously, I hate hostels, but I really did enjoy my time there. Plus, Kelly, Aaron, and Ollie (spelling?, sorry if it's wrong) were all so helpful and nice. They totally made my time in London that much better. Whenever my friend and I needed anything or had a question they were there to help. I highly recommend this hostel if you're looking for a place to stay in London. :) :) :)

Love staying in this hostel and will return but on this occasion - slight problem with toilets on top floor. Staff were courteous at all times and helpful with enquiries. Happy with my stay.

Pretty solid bar downstairs. However it suffers a tad from not having a kitchen and being fairly far out from the centre of London

The beds were comfy, it's a stone's throw from the DLR and National Rail BUT... The showers were utter trash. The room was bcold and the showers never warmer than room temperature. I got a horrific chest cold staying there that is still with me a week later. They have laundry but there's apparently an unwritten rule that says you can't use the laundry between 10am and 2pm. It's not in the guide you get at checkin, it's not on the door. If you do laundry between 10 and 2 though, people will yell.

The place is way away from the touristic area but there is a subway station right next to it, there is no kitchen facility - so forget about trying to save money and cooking at the hostel, the wooden floor makes a horrible noise that wakes everybody up when u arrive in the middle of the night. There is also the disgusting smell in the halls. The worst hostel I have been so far.

The french guys behind the bar/reception were brilliant!! So helpful and I even got a cup of coffee after checking in. The room was clean and tidy, the only thing I didn't like was the loudness outside but it might be due to the fact that it was halloween weekend and my room being directly above the pub entrance. The breakfast was very good and I felt well full after eating so much Nutella on toast :) Really nice place!
