Well i go to London quite a bit but its only an hour from home so dont stay there too often, my opinoin on areas though would have to be Camden all the way, its the most crazy hedonistic place i know of & the vibe is awesome 24 hrs a day, clubs to try would be Turnmills & the Fridge, they're not in Camden but any where is just a short tube hop away, have fun dude!

Hello! Yeah, I completely recommend the Palmers Lodge Hostel I stayed at in London, it was the best hostel I stayed at on my whole trip. The beds were super comfortable and clean and they had a curtain so it was private. You had a big locker under the bed (you need to bring your lock though) and a lot of restroom and shower facilities so you never had to wait for one, not to mention the big kickass lounge with flat tv and computers. Plus it's close to McDonald's and KFC, AND the subway station. Really, it was great. Have fun!

hey man hostels are very friendly and very easy. the ones i stayed at in london were ace hotel and astor quest. ace hotel is a very nice one to start off with because it's in a great neighborhood and the staff can help you get setup. It's a good introduction. My best advice is look for the top rated hostels and hope for the best. i know how scary it can be. also visit www.backpackeurope.com for some incredibly helpful advice and good places to stay.
