Urbany Hostel London in Tagta

Hands down, my favorite hostel in London. I have stayed multiple times and can not recommend it enough! The common spaces are great, prime location but the staff is truly what places this place amazing. Thanks again for a great stay ❤️

The location is great, right near Hyde Park and some metro stations. A simple space, yet a comfortable one. (The stairs make for a great work out!Guests were respectful. Staff was nice and helpful ✨ Would stay again.

My only experience of hostels up until now was lads holidays in my younger days around Europe. Travelling as a couple into London we decided to give hostels a try after using hotels and "abnb" in the past. I am so glad that we did and I dont think that I would go back to the accommodation options that we used in the past.This place is our "go to" now whenever visiting London. Both of us grew up in London and have lived there most of our lives, this hostel is in one of the best locations in the capital.Set in trendy Notting Hill, beautiful shops are in abundance in all directions, great selection of supermarkets are close by and the Boho chic of Portabello road is a 10 minute walk (market opens Fri-Sun)Transport links are plentiful, Hyde park, Holland park and Kensington gardens are all within a short walk. Its a dream location, well positioned for exploring all of London.The hostel itself is extremely clean and well run by an extraordinary staff team led by Leah, not only is everything run very efficiently, the team here are great at creating the most amazing Vibe and the people that this place seems to attract are friendly and respectful. Great time talking with the other guests, such a difference to the experience that you get in a hotel.Lots of toilets and showers, lovely big kitchen with fridge, freezer, ovens and hobs, plenty of storage space, plates, cutlery etc.Rooms are great, we stayed in a 6 bed mixed dorm with another couple and a single male, all were great company.Big thanks to the team there, Leah, Zac(the style guru), all of the Jakes and everyone I have forgotten to mention.One of the nicest experiences we have had staying in London.Cant wait to return. Totally awesome!!!

Awesome start to a euro trip of a lifetime. The hosts Alex and jarrel went above and beyond to make not only myself and other travellers feel at home 10/10 would book again

This hostel has vibrant vibe, very friendly people! The bunkbeds needs uograde, when one person move the top bed move so you can feel all movement. It has a common kitchen to cook. They just accept people of less of 40 years old. Take that in consideration because in my group I am 51 and they canceled our stay. We didn’t know that so when we arrived they allowed us to stay just one night. Them we talked to them and based that the old detail was not warned us we stayed the 2 nights. We were 5 persons in group. So far great vibe

I love this hostel, the staff was really friendly it felt like home and it felt like family, 10/10 would recommend, I will definitely come back xx

Urbany is amazing! Staff are so friendly. Would not stay anywhere else in London

Amazingly great stuff, super clean, great location I ve stayed there 2 times both amazing.

Loved staying here. This was my first hostel stay. The people are fun, the rooms are clean, and the staff organizes group activities. (Female, 24)

The staff are the best here. Amazing organized night outs. Had an amazing experience here

Due to a communication error, I made the same reservation 2 times with the same name on the same date and paid 2 times. Upon arrival, I inquired at the desk, and after that I inquired a few times, but they received the same charge for the second time. beggar place

Tried to book three nights on their website, it said $27 per night, however every time I would check out it would show me a price almost x3 more expensive.

It was an awesome experience from the begining to the end. Staff, rooms, location, cleaness, vibes, all was perfect.

One of the better hostels Ive been in this summer. Big and clean kitchen, very nice staff (lent me padlock for freethat took us clubbing. Airy rooms also. Not expensive

I stayed in a 4 bedroom dorm. The beds were comfy and very clean. There was also a tap in the room which was convinient to fill my water bottle. The staff were awesome and super welcoming and the location was great in a very nice part of London. Transport was easy as my reason for the stay was to catch a flight at Heathrow the next day. My flight was late afternoon and there were plenty of restaurants & things to do around the area in the morning which was a great way to kill time before my flight and get a good meal in. It took me 30 minutes to get to the airport via public transport with no issues, would recommend. 👍

Overall a great experience, the staff are nice and the location beautiful. Its prettx much always clean and the facilities are laid out in a way that makes it easy to socialise but also let you keep to yourself, if you want. The only issue for me was that the rooms were, when all the beds are taken, super full and you barely get any privacy - to be expected, you might say, from a hostel, but nonetheless having other people burst in unannounced at 11:45 with loud voices and lights and no regard for peoples sleep the day before their planned departure is not a pleasant experience, even if the curfew is technically 12:00

Thanks to Rhys and Josh for the shower gobby. Also the rooms were clean and kitchen was amazing

Stayed with a couple of my friends for a week.Location is pretty amazing, close to the Subway and plenty of Supermarkets and Restaurants as well as Hyde Park.Definitely caters towards young people with lots of organized and fun activities in the evenings. Super friendly staff and Atmosphere.Rooms were okay, lockers didnt work but ingeneral pretty average. Bathrooms were quite cramped and small on our floor.

Urbany London is one of my favorite hostels I’ve ever stayed at! Amazing staff and atmosphere, especially as a solo traveler. Rooms and bathrooms cleaned very frequently. The staff really strive to not only make sure you’ve got everything you need accommodation wise but also great recommendations and fun! Special shout-out to Leah!! Thank you for everything Urbany team! ☺️

All of the guests and hosts were friendly and this is the guesthouse where some of Europes most entertaining guests stay.👍👍

perfectly located hostel with a super social environment and amazing staff!

Amazing hostel, its well located, clean, and with good vibes to meet people. The staff is friendly and helpful :thanks Leah for the cool parties!Totally recommend it!

Cute hostel with great vibes for meeting people/making friends. Lots of shared spaces, big industrial kitchen, indoor and outdoor communal spaces, very helpful and friendly reception staff.Beware your room might be 3 floors up! For people with large suitcases..Showers small but clean and water hot. Unsure if the room had air conditioning.

Very good hostel. Clean, good location, helpful and friendly staff, big kitchen

Best hostel ever, thank you to Rebecca for hooking up with me in the shower.

cant praise this joint enough. Great facilities, full kitchen with multiple stove tops, clean, lovely staff, lovely guests. We enjoyed the outside courtyard for hanging out with others and smoking, if felt very private. Many people we met there said they had come back to the hostel a few times. I would too!

I have stayed in hostels all over the world and can easily say that Urbany Hostel in London is without a doubt my favorite London hostel. Not only was it located in a great area right by Notting Hill, but the hostel itself was awesome. From friendly staff, to great and clean facilities, other awesome and young likeminded travelers, to its central location there is no doubt that I would stay here again. Plus, the staff was amazing. Nina and Jake were not only extremely helpful in giving me great recommendations of things to do in the area, but were extremely friendly and fun to chat with. I will definitely be staying here again!

Urbany is absolutely magical! Management & staff are very friendly, hospitable and becomes your family away from home. They are always willing to help & give recommendations. The facilities are extremely clean and comfy. The location is perfect and in a nice neighbourhood, lots of shops, restaurants, markets & train stations close by. Just good vibes & good energies! Its hard not to fall in love with this place. Dont hesitate to check this fantastic hostel out. Thanks Urbany for making my stay special & unforgettable!! 😊

The hostel was great. The showers were clean, had a good water pressure and were hot. Everyone working there was extremely hospitable, nice and accommodating ( especially luan :)).Even though London financially ruined me in the course of a short party weekend. If I were to ever return, it 100% would be in this hostel.

shoutout to hannah for plugging this hostel for me! the people are amazing especially the French! made so many great friends and plan on returning very soon!! the entire team is amazing and the location is literally perfect, also very clean everywhere you go & the environment is fantastic! just book it

Urbany, I love you so much! Thank you for an amazing time in London. I stayed at the hostel for 6 nights and thoroughly enjoyed my entire stay. The staff at Urbany is definitely a key piece of why I enjoyed my stay so much. From the inviting check-in to the fun nights in and out, they are all great people and I instantly made connections with many of them because they were so welcoming. The hostel itself is maintained really well. My bed was really comfortable and the volunteers are also constantly cleaning the kitchen surfaces, bathrooms, and common area floors. The hostel itself is a 20-minute walk from Notting Hill and a short walk from the Kensington Gardens. It’s a beautiful area and is close to multiple tube stations if you want to visit further tourist spots. With facilities, they had a great kitchen and lounge space and I had no troubles with internet connection. Thanks again Urbany, I’ll see you soon!

Probably the best hostel in a long time!! Super clean, the vibe is great and the people were amazing. Absolutely loved it as a solo traveller.Location is beautiful and safe!The staff is the BEST thank you Leah Jake Hannah Luan Alba Nick Louise Eli and others ❤️❤️ Specially Leah the manager that made sure to give me a memorable gift before I go back home.Would definitely come back asap its the place to be

We stayed for one night and ended up with the four-bed dorm to ourselves. The receptionist who welcomed us was warm and inviting, the hostel is pretty clean overall, it offers all services that you need; however, the kitchen was a bit messy. The surrounding area offers many places to eat and nightlife, as well as groceries and very close to transit.The bed was comfortable, but theyre quite close together. It wouldnt have been as a nice experience had we been in a full dorm.

I had an excellent stay here. The staff became a family away from home. They are always there for you when you need help or advice about where to go! Even the guests turned into some great friends and were always keen to do join when I wanted to do something.

I stayed here at the start of the pandemic and loved it, so I came back and loved it even more! The best hostel in London, the staff are all kind and welcoming. The hostel itself is super clean and beds are super comfy. The staff really make this hostel a home. If you dont stay here on your stay in London, your making a big mistake.

I booked there for an easy trip where I didn’t want to spend much. I was in London for a quick task so I picked a cheap option to do so.However, it became expensive because I had to leave the room at 5am and waited until 8am to check out. I booked for 3 nights and I stayed there only for half. I asked for a refund, no way you get a refund from this guys. They are very very polite, but it’s all business, as soon as things become uncomfortable, they become what they really are.They say it’s a new place, but it looks super old and dirty, beds are uncontrollable. It smells bad. One guy did not stop coughing for the whole night, that’s why I asked to me moved somewhere else but they did not accept (because they were fully booked). I checked online and they still had vacancies… anyway, I had to book in a hotel, I did not get refunded so my trip became more expensive than expected.Honestly, avoid this place if you can. It really destroyed my plans in London.And this guys are very good writing answers, as you can see in the bad reviews they have they always find a way to make look the guest guilty. So let’s see what they have to say about me … “you booked a non refundable stay” - I booked a stay where I could not stay so everything is wrong 🙂

Uncomfortable beds, smelly hostel and not covid friendly. Hope this review reflects the reality that all the 5 stars fake reviews do in this page.

The only place in London to stay if your hunting for a Hostel.Very friendly staff, spotlessly clean and great facilities at a great rate and to top it of its in one of the best locations in Lindon.

Hands down the best hostel I stayed in London. Staff is extremely nice and helpful. The rooms are comfortable and have big windows with loads of natural light coming in. The location is great, very close to the tube and shops. I’d recommend this place to anyone visiting London

Friendly staff and a clean hostel.Terrace and lounge are real nice.Take earplugs though, noise could be loud from within the hostel or outside up to around 2am.

The best hostel in London!! All areas are kept super clean and tidy. Staff are amazing, so friendly and helpful. 10/10 would recommend. Ended up changing my flight home cause I didnt want to leave! Already planning my next trip back.

One of the nicest hostels I’ve stayed at. Plenty of room and everything seems brand new. Friendly staff as well to make you feel right at home.

Super nice hostel. Newly decorated with lots of great facilities. Wonderful staff, special shout out to Leah the manager, shes an absolute gem. ❤️

This is a great hostel with a massive kitchen two separate common areas.The beads are comfortable and the hostel is always clean.The staff are friendly and easy to get along with and theres a free vegetarian dinner every night at 8pm

What a warm and welcoming hostel!! Staff are lovely and give you a tour on arrival making a real effort to make you feel comfortable and at home. Free dinners are always delicious and a real bonus for travellers on a budget 😊 couldn’t recommend staying here highly enough!!

Overall I enjoyed my stay here and would stay again, though hoping for some improvements.Positives: the location is incredibly safe and easily accessible to public transports, with a lot of shops and restaurants in the area. The volunteer staff are super friendly and helpful, willing to give tips and knowledge for your travels. The common area is excellent for meeting people, the free dinner each night at 8pm is awesome, and the overall atmosphere is super hospitable. The facilities are well maintained and relatively clean. Security is reliable.Negatives: the shower stalls are quite cramped, as well as the hallways. The bunks themselves seem a bit dated and squeak. The lockers inside the room were quite small and old. The laundry staff lost something I had cleaned, and the same thing happened to a roommate. My towel was also taken from my room by cleaning staff and was never found, though I was given one from the hostel as replacement. Cleanliness could be improved upon.

For the price I paid, I was absolutely not expecting what I got. I knew the reviews were overwhelmingly positive, but I was still a bit nervous about it all.When I got to the hostel, I was immediately blown away by the hospitality, Margarita made me feel right at home, shes a very genuine and nice person. And atop it all, FREE dinner? I was very surprised! All the meals I had were very good as well, even if the bowls werent that big.Some days I left early and got back late, but the days that I did spend at the hostel I met great people and had amazing conversations. The common areas were also very tasteful and a pleasure to be in, bathrooms were clean. The people who do cleaning here are also very nice, definitely have a chat with them when you can!One thing I will say is that staying on the ground floor was a bit noisy and I needed earplugs to block out the noise from both the outside and through the door most days. But hostels are noisy, thats nothing new! The door to my room also didnt properly lock so I did feel compelled to lock any important stuff away in my locker (by the way, bring your own padlock, you can buy one at reception and its no issue, but itll be easier if you bring your own). However, I never felt unsafe here and didnt for a moment think anyone would steal my things, just a "better safe than sorry" measure.The staff are all so down to earth, friendly and helpful. Antonella (yes I remembered to mention you especiallybut also Leah, Steph, Jon, Alex, Sadie - apologies if I forgot any others or spelt your names wrong - thank you for a super fun last night. And yes Ill make sure to come back!

No CCTVDoors dont shut fully you have to pull them shut when leaving room.First room had bedbugs so I was transferred to another room.Staff were arrogantly friendly but had hidden agendas of drinking games to make you miss check out so you then had to pay $20 late checkout feeMy advise would be to use the hostels around the corner

Difficult to found any problems in this new hostel.They got to TV room for meet and speak with other guests, the dinner is includ with the price ( was really good thx again for the garlic bread !)But like every time I take time to write a review its not just for the place but for the staff 5 🌟 !

I have to say what an amazing place! This is by far the best hostel I have ever stayed at. Not only does it have super funky chill areas but an amazing vibe. I have met people here who will be my friends for life. The staff made my experience here in London so spectacular. Thank you to Margs for showing me around London. Thank you to John for making the best meals I have ever had. And Taylor and Saidee always whip out the best jokes. Weds was such a party animal she showed me a side to London I have never seen. Thank you Urbany for the best experience in London.
