Palmers Lodge Swiss Cottage - Hostel

The property was so convenient and good that I booked another stay for another 3 nights in the same week and also had another night which I booked directly with reception due to the urgent nature of the first extension.

When I booked this stay I was skeptical because for location it was very cheap. I wasn’t expecting much but a place to lay my head after work. WOW I couldn’t have being more wrong in my pre stay assumption. This place is outstanding. I couldn’t have asked for more this hostel is clean, friendly and amazing. Best place to stay in London if you need good cheap accommodation. I will be returning very soon. Thank you so much to all the staff for being so welcoming. You do a fantastic job each and every one of you. I have recommended this place to many of my industry colleagues and I am sure they will be using this facility for there next stay.

I had an absolutely wonderful time staying at Palmer's Lodge. Every single staff member was incredibly kind, helpful, and professional. The reception team was so welcoming and patient—when I accidentally locked myself out of my room three times, they kindly unlocked the door for me every single time with a smile! Also, when there was a minor issue with a flooded floor in the laundry room, a male staff member responded immediately and made it sparkling clean in no time. It was quite hot in London during my stay, but the hostel was very comfortable. Upon my check-in, the bed-making was exceptionally neat and professional. I also really appreciated that a large electric fan was set up in the room, which kept the environment cool and pleasant. Even when I accidentally thought I lost something after checking out, the team was incredibly responsive and helpful in assisting me. The location is also perfect for music fans! You can easily walk to the famous Abbey Road zebra crossing. If you go early in the morning when there is very little traffic, you can take as many pictures as you want without any hassle. Don't miss the breakfast either—the chocolate danishes and chocolate muffins were absolutely delicious! It is such a comfortable, safe, and lovely hostel. I will definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit to London, and I highly recommend it to everyone!

The environment was really comfy with lot of common areas - lounge, bar and canteen. The building style is nostalgic and reminds me of my uni accomodation life. Would love to book another stay in future.
