Stayed here a few times now and can't stay away! The hostel itself is clean, safe and accessible! Got everything you need including a bar downstairs which is always useful. What makes it though are the amazing staff... Helpful and friendly, always up for a laugh! Dan, ollie, Courtney and Aaron are given a big mention... Not forgetting the inflatable sheep! Keep it up :)

I enjoyed my stay here. Need to take overground and underground trains in order to get to most of the attractions in London from the hostel. (It takes about 30- 35 minutes from the overground trains to the underground trains. The underground trains are the trains that you will need to get around London.) Definitely need to get the day pass or the oyster card in order to not spend a ton of money on transportation. Overall still a great hostel. Felt safe and enjoyed meeting new people.

It needs to deciede if its a Pub or a Hostel. Its not so good when you need to be attendant by a bartender.

It was a good place to stay at. Nice staff and only 20 mins with the underground to get into central London.

Can't get a better location right beside the station and a short walk to all of Greenwich. Good size room, comfortable bed, basic breakfast included and good lockers for gear. Dark and dingy common room but good pub to relax in. Good value place to stay.

People of the staff were very nice and were always smiling! The nicest thing of this hostel is that it is upstairs of a PUB! (a very nice pub by the way!)

I really enjoyed my stay at st chistophers in greenwich. the food and bar is great especially that you get a discount with your key card. The staff are really friendly and willing to help you out and answer any questions. They organisse a few activities aswell to keep you entertained. If you want to stay slightly out of the city centre but still not an expensive trip i highly recommend this hostel!

Great place to stay for sure, clean, lots of character, secure, great location as in close to shops, public transport, etc. Had some great nights hanging out with newly made friends and the staff. Have to say, the staff are great, very welcoming and nothing is too much trouble for them, so here is a big thank you to Kellie, Michelle, Ollie, Sebastian, Stephen, Courtney, Aaron, Dan, Rachel, Neil and Yuba. And oh, am finally sick of Pinot Grigio haha.

St.Christophers is right next to the metro which is excellent considering that it takes a bit to get into central London. The Greenwich area is really cute and charming and there is a market just down the street if you'd rather make a quick lunch or dinner or buy snacks. The one major downside where the showers. You just pushed in a button and only got water for 30 seconds to a minute before it shut off and you had to push it again. We stayed in an 8 bed, it was small but people were nice.

I enjoyed my stay there. although the club music at weekend might be heard loud a little bet in some places but it stops relatively not so late. I recommend it.

People warned me about staying here- but i saw nothing to back up the bad reputation they made of it. I felt smug at paying a fraction of their stay in a faceless hotel, while I enjoyed meeting roommates and others in the bar.

A bit difficult to find at first, with the reception being downstairs in the bar, but not really well signposted. Staff were friendly and helpful, and location (right next to DLR and trains) was brilliant.

I loved this hostel. The staff were friendly and helpful. The place was clean and easy to find from the train station. You need to purchase towels but its just as easy to bring your own. The best part of the hostel was meeting others. While we were there everyone was really friendly and wanted to have a good time. I highly recommend this hostel.

This was the best hostel I have EVER stayed in. The staff were absolutely incredible. I grew very close to them as well as my room mates in a very short amount of time and was sorry to say goodbye. I would stay here again just for the company and atmosphere and feel little need to actually explore London.
