It would be great if there were a couple hot water kettles to use.

A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Holland Park I’ve stayed in a lot of places across London, but Safestay Holland Park operates on a higher frequency. The outside patio and garden offer a peaceful sanctuary that’s hard to come by in London, leading into a spacious, grand lobby that sets a great tone for the stay. The common areas and dorms are well-kept and looked after as well. Even when adding breakfast to the standard rate, the value for money given this prime location is exceptional. However,...

Had to accommodate myself unexpectedly, due to an emergency, and this was a perfect option, right where I needed to be very early the next morning, cheaper than a taxi ride across town and allowing me to get me some sleep quickly in the calm surroundings of Holland Park. And have a recommendation for budget travel.

Dear Manager, I hope you are well. I am writing to share feedback about my recent experience at your hostel. I have been a regular guest and have always appreciated the service and atmosphere, which is why this situation was particularly disappointing. Unfortunately, I mistakenly booked my stay for Sunday instead of Saturday. I fully acknowledge that this was an oversight on my part. However, when I arrived and explained the situation, I found the response from staff to be quite unhelpf...

Camera privata da 3 e bagno molto spaziosi e dotati di tutto il necessario. Forse mancava qualche appoggio in più. Migliorare le indicazioni per l'ingresso soprattutto quando il cancello del parco è chiuso

The girl with blonde streaky hair is the rudest human I have ever had the misfortune to meet.

The hostel is located in a central location close to may public transport routes but secluded enough in a park that you do not have to deal with a lot of crazy London traffic. The layout of the place is a bit confusing but I guess they do what they can with the space they have. The staff was very responsive when I contacted them by e-mail before my arrival, which was helpful.

My stay at Safestay Hostel was overall acceptable, but there were a few notable downsides. The alarm went off in the middle of the night for no apparent reason, which was quite disruptive. The coffee and food prices are comparable to Costa or Caffè Nero — very expensive — and I don’t feel the quality justifies those prices. The location is also challenging if you’re arriving with luggage, as it’s a very long walk from Holland Park station. Aside from that, it was ok.

Some noisy guests (men) outside cafe after 11pm kept us awake (female dorm en suite top floor new building). Safestay management really need to step up and knock that on the head. plenty party hostels in London they can go to. otherwise seems this place has improved alot recently compared to previous stays over the years.

I was in dormitory 018. It was freezing cold and there was no heating. I commute for work but there was also no hot water in any of the showers for that block. There was no forewarning about the situation, and nobody apologised about the fact there would be a ton of people who commute for work who will not be able to have a shower that morning. I own and rent 4 properties. I make sure that these properties are the same standard I would expect for myself as a guest or tenant. You don't ca...

I loved to stay there. Amazing chill area. The one bad thing: It’s far away from the London eye and Tower Bridge. I would stay there again.

We booked to stay for 3 nights, but in the end we only stayed one. It was impossible to stay in this hostel i just lost money and time. The bathroom was dirty, filthy, and smelly. I would never stay there again and I do not recommend this hostel to anyone.
