Our Choice: International Students House, 229 Great Portland St, London. This place is hard to beat as it is right across the street from the Great Portland Tube station, offers free breakfast and an inexpensive cafeteria, lounge with Internet access and a secured entrance. This hostel also has female only rooms, an increasingly rare offer amongst hostels. Price is about 18.50 pounds (about 33 USD). (Note: we think their website is not geared for tourists, so we prefer to book through HostelEurope for convenience and find the nominal fee worth it.) Also notable: Ace Hotel in Kensington. It is technically a hostel despite the name, but it does offer some private rooms and is fairly new and clean. Free breakfast and a hot tub are offered, as well as a plasma screen bar area and private bathrooms for some rooms. Prices range from around 17 pounds for an 8 bed mixed dorm to 80 pounds for a double room w/ private bath. 3, 4, and 6 bed mixed dorms are also available. Palmers Lodge, near Regents Park, is a fairly new facility. Prices range from 12-14 pounds per person for same gender dorms (usually with 12-14 rooms) up to 26 pounds per person for a private, double bedded room with bathroom ensuite. Free breakfast and internet are provided, as well as secured entry, 24 hour reception and free parking. Click here for other popular hostel choices in London. What's your favorite hostel in London?
