Prime Backpackers

"In terms of hostels the best quality I look for is the environment, and this place had that for sure. All the guests and staff here were insanely friendly and nice. There was a deep community. It was about a 50/50 split of long term residents and backpackers. Everyone cleaned up after themselves in the common spaces which was beyond impressive, and the space was very large and cozy. The beds were clean, and there were both individual and dorm bathrooms all of which were kept very clean. The location being in Angel is top tier for accessing the city and night life. Only downside was no place to lock up belonging within individual rooms, and the bed frames were a tad bit wobbly. 10/10 would be the hostel I go back to again in London out of all the others I've been to."

"I stayed in this hostel for a few weeks because I could find a room I could offer after my previous room contract ended, and I enjoyed it. It felt like home; the staff were lovely, and the kitchen was big and tidy."

"Being a solo traveler and staying at this hostel for over a week, end of September 2022, I really like this place with helpful staff, caring people, laid-back atmosphere, family diner, artcraft evening, sunday pancakes and much more. It is located near all amenities, transport, markets and walking distance to a very charming canal. There are games, books, guitars, piano and TV to entertain yourself. I have met beautiful travelers who got to be also part of the staff, they helped me navigating through London. I was missing them when I left. Would definitely go back to this place :))"

"Good location, near the bus stop and the metro station. It gets really loud at night and the staff provides you with free earplugs! We loved the large kitchen and the atmosphere. They even cook free pancakes for everyone on Sunday mornings! We loved the staff, especially Dana! She was very kind and gave us a warm welcome by taking us on a tour of the place. Beds are quite uncomfortable and some of the sockets and USB plugs didn’t work during our stay. There aren’t enough lockers in the room for your luggage so be sure to bring a padlock. Toilets also get quite busy in the morning as there are just a few of them. The place was quite clean though. Overall we had a good stay!"

"This hostel was the best hostel we’ve been to in the UK! The room was very clean, the kitchen was clean and very well-equipped. The staff was super nice and helpful. And also they were chilling in the kitchen a lot, listening to cool music, working on their laptops and chatting with us and giving us advice! This gave the hostel a real family vibe! It honestly felt like a family hostel. Super chill and super cute. Also it’s possible to borrow hairdryers and towels for free! Additionally, they offered free pancakes on Sunday and a family dinner every Thursday:) The only downside was the bathrooms, they were good but not excellent. But since this was the only downside, I will still give this hostel 5 starts ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We stayed in the hostel for 3 nights and we loved it!"
