I think this hotel is the best in the same price range. Cause the atmosphere they have is open and friendly. I have stayed at some hotels in London, it was like an 8-bed dormitory. Most of them are like a prison. But here is not like that. So nice living room, dining and something. I recommend it here strongly.

As a solo traveler, I had a fantastic stay at Saint James Backpackers. The hostel's central location made exploring the city easy. The rooms were clean and comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The staff was friendly and helpful, always ready to offer tips and recommendations. The communal areas were well-maintained and provided a great space to meet other travelers. Overall, I highly recommend Saint James Backpackers for solo adventurers seeking a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Nice garden and they got free breakfast, but just need to queue for so long if you want some eggs or pancakes and sausages from them. Be careful of your food you put in the fridge, it will be taken even you put the name on it!

The manager that worked the morning shift wasn’t really friendly, always with an unhappy face. Night shift staff were great. Cleanliness average and didn’t know the toilet was super small. We were not allowed to use the kitchen in the morning and in the evening to cook our own meal, but they actually have 2 hobs that can be well utilised.

Great location close to Earl’s Court tube station, shops and restaurants. Staff were helpful. Good amenities with big TV and board games. Big bonus with free breakfast provided every morning.

The lodging was about 5min walk from Earl's Court station which was convenient to access many of the main attractions. There were many food options around too. The room was spacious and clean but Wifi connection was unstable in the room. Towel, shampoo and shower gel had to be self-supplied. The lodging provided daily breakfast for free which was a huge bonus. It also had limited free dinner but I didn't get to try. Check-in and check-out were easy and the staff were friendly.
