Property Information:
Welcome to The Great Eastern, rated one of Londons cleanest and friendliest backpackers by Hostel World guests.
Please ignore our location rating. We are in a beautiful part of London. No, we are not in the West End and you cannot wake up to the bells of Big Ben (although the boat trip from here to Big Ben is amazing).
Stay with us if you want a more unique experience of London than the one you read about in your travel guide. Stay with us if you want to stroll the historic Thames Path or walk under (yes under!) the river to the charming Greenwich Village. And best of all, we are located just two minutes from the DLR station, so London centre is just 20 minutes away when you are ready for some inner-city fun.
If it is your first visit to London and you want to see the usual sites, we can happily recommend our sister hostels located in the city. Otherwise, dare to be different and visit us at The Great Eastern. You will be glad you did!
