Elelphant & Castle Stay

The Hotel itself is very good. Rooms nice. Plenty of room. The only problem when we were there was the Lift was out of service and we were on the top floor. But we would defo book again.. Well worth the money.

Lovely time

Had a lovely time here. My boyfriend and I booked the family room, and it was much more spacious than I was expecting. We were next to the road so there was noise but it was absolutely fine and we slept well! Tip for families: we could feel the mattress springs so we put a duvet on top of the bed to sleep on which was brilliant. Overall, great stay and no complaints.

No towels.

Good location, clean rooms. I was told no towels were available and I should buy one from the shop around the corner (housekeeping were able to find one for me). The room and corridors were too hot and the lobby too cold. From what I could see, there wasn’t a kitchen which is something I’d normally expect from a hostel but it wasn’t an issue only being there one night.

I had a wonderful experience staying at Safestay London Elephant & Castle hostel during my very first time staying in a hostel rather than a hotel room. The hostel is centrally located, just a few minutes' walk from Elephant and Castle tube station, making it easy to travel to anywhere in the city. The staff were incredibly friendly and always willing to help with any questions or concerns I had. The hostel itself is clean, stylish, and well-maintained, with comfortable beds and ample storage space in the rooms. Overall, I highly recommend Safestay London Elephant & Castle hostel for anyone looking for a comfortable, affordable, and centrally located place to stay in London.

Liked: Room comfort
Room was clean and spacious On day 1, staff in reception is nice. On our second night,shower room used once unfortunately drainage was blocked and water came out the room and hallway, one staff was informed about it but very slow response .The staff whose been told about the flood finished his duty and didn't handover to the next staff.It was reported at 23:05, another staff came and seems unhappy about what happened and said he will be back in 20 minutes to bring more towels.Then he came back and put towels by the door of the toilet and more by the hallway. He said he already reported it to the manager ,but can't do anything about it,as maintenance will be sorting it out the following day. The following day our check out,no one came up there are towels still on the floor but good water is gone Breakfast, not much choices,should be more options , but its ok The location is near bus stop and walkable Many stores nearby
