YHA London

YHA London is a modern hostel in Soho, a short walk from Oxford Street and within reach of attractions like the London Eye and Madame Tussauds. It has been open for over a decade and tends to suit backpackers and budget travellers.

There is a bar that pulls people together, plus a communal kitchen for anyone who would rather cook. The hostel also runs free walking tours led by locals. Rooms range from private to dormitory, all with comfortable beds and clean linen, and reception is staffed 24 hours so you can come and go as you please.
