Overall Ratings & Reviews Astor Museum Inn Hostel

Great hostel, would stay again

I had excellent service and care from the staff when I became a little unwell. Thank-you, everyone!! I had a girls only dorm it was spotless and the bedding was spotlessly clean and fresh. I liked the centrality of this place.

My flight information changed quickly. I called to push the date of arrival back and they wouldn’t accommodate. Stated they had no rooms available, but the online there was availability, though I’m unsure what specific room(s) were available. They refused a refund and again did nothing to accommodate me. I had to stay elsewhere and eat the $93 charge from this booking. Do not book through hotels.com!

My stay was fine, but the bare minimum, even for a hostel

The staff are amazing

Stayed at building 103. I was given a used wrinkled paper card to access building which didn’t work most of the time. No wifi info provided. Had to return to the front desk to obtain a plastic card for entry. Smell the toilet as soon as entering building. Hitting my head going downstairs to the basement to the shower and toilet. Location is good, bed so-so, cold and damp in the room with window open.

Well situated in a cute neighborhood. However they couldn't accomodate with an early check-in (2pm instead of 3pm..). Plus whenI got there they told me the bed I had reserved was in another building. No bathroom on my floor. 2 tiny bathrooms for the whole building, 3 showers. It was ok for the price. People at the reception were nice though.

Loved the property. Great kitchen and breakfast.

Overall an amazing place

Love it.

The accommodation was in a very convenient location and budget friendlh. The hostel had all the basic services and amenities. The staff were very friendly and helpful too

The museum location has 2 separate buildings. The 1st being the main building that has all the amenities and check in, and the 2nd being a kind of overflow building for longer stays and more inexpensive rooms. I stayed in the 2nd on the ground floor as my stay was for a week. The second building has your rooms, showers and toilets. If you want to experience the hostel’s amenities try and book a bed in the main building. The room I was in didn't have A/C, or a screen on the window so if you wanted some cooler air or airflow in general you'll need to turn on the large noisy fan and crack open the window. 1 night of my stays one of my roommates put his belongings on a table near the window and at some point in the night, someone reached in and stole them. So maybe keep your items in your bags locked overnight, or if you see your window doesn’t have a screen just don’t put items near the window.

Good location and price, very helpful staff. However the room was unbearably hot, only 1 functioning toilet in the entire building, my plug socket didn’t work

Located very centrally, close to so many of the major landmarks. Has GREAT kitchen, spacious and well-stocked so you have everything you need to cook proper meals. It's very social—it really encourages people to chat with each other, which not every hostel does, and has fun events, so it's great for a solo traveller. GREAT staff, all are so friendly, the most friendly set of staff in a London hostel which again makes it so easy to be social! Thank you everyone; Tristan, Alex, Ben, Aitor etc etc who all made my stay a joy :) The hostel is clean, bathroom amenities are clean and rather spacious, and rooms are spacious, light and with high ceilings, which is great. Just great overall! I recommend to book rooms in the main hostel and not the 'annexe', to make it more convenient. :)

Great location, very central, clean and great friendly staff :)

Good stay

The hostel is right next to the British Museum, and close to many of the popular tourist sites. The staff is really helpful and friendly. I’ll definitely stay there again when I visit London in the future.

Amazing staff. Everyone does their job well: receptionists were helpful and friendly, sheets and toilets were probably the cleanest I've ever seen in hostels. Super satisfied with my stay. Thank you guys!

Its nice

Affordable, great area, lots of things to do.
