Set in London and with Brick Lane reachable within 1.4 km, Hostelle - women only hostel London offers a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi throughout the property and a terrace. The property is around 2.7 km from Liverpool Street Underground Station, 2.8 km from Victoria Park and 3.1 km from Tower of London. The accommodation features karaoke and a shared kitchen. I was travelling for work and had to change my booking at the last second, and Hostelle was one of the only places available. I was hesitant to stay in a hostel but it was fabulous. The beds were like little caves so I could work or wind down at the end of the day. The place was scrupulously clean, the wifi was fast, it felt safe, and the staff was always available and lovely.

Rooms are fitted with a shared bathroom. You will find a 24-hour front desk at the property. Beyond AMAZING staff! As a solo female traveler, I was looking for a safe place to stay and Astor Museum was the perfect choice! The hostel was very well located, everything was clean and the environment was lovely. There are daily activities which are great to meet people, make new friends, and have fun in London like a local! The staff also gives you great tips on what to visit! This was my first time in London (and in a hostel), and I’ll be definitely booking a stay with them again on my next visit!
