The Walrus Hostel

Welcome to The Walrus, your central base for exploring London!

Located just a short walk from Big Ben, the London Eye, and Waterloo Station, we offer unbeatable access to London’s most iconic sights, cultural landmarks, and transport links. Whether you’re here to soak in the history, attend an event, or just need a well-connected place to stay, our location makes it easy. With 24/7 access via secure personal access codes, you can come and go whenever it suits you.

The Walrus is a social yet relaxed hostel, perfect for travellers who want to meet people and experience all the city has to offer. Our on-site classic British pub is a welcoming space to grab a drink, share stories, or plan your next adventure, and our friendly team is always on hand to help you make the most of your time in London.

Our pub features regular events like live music gigs and pub quizzes. Feel free to bring your own food into the bar; we recommend checking out Lower Marsh market just steps from our door for some delicious local eats.

Simple, central, and full of character. The Walrus is here to help you feel at home in the heart of the city.

Just a heads up - Our central location means you might hear some city buzz and passing trains until around midnight.
