This was actually my first stay in a dorm and I'm so happy I chose Hostelle! Even though I chose the room with the most beds (12) it was really no issue to share the space. Everybody was super respectful, and even on the weekend the bathrooms were fairly clean! I was also surprised that the bathrooms and showers were never occupied, even though there were a lot of guests. The kitchen also exceeded my expectations. It felt more like a small and super safe community. I regretted only staying 2 nights, could have easily spend a week there!

I’ve stayed in similar capsule-style hostels before, and I really like this concept — and The GreenHouse Capsules is one of the best I’ve tried. It’s a very quiet and safe place, located just a 5-minute walk from Bethnal Green Underground Station. The area is full of cozy cafés and restaurants, yet the street itself is peaceful and calm. Inside the hostel, it’s clean, modern, and very quiet — I slept perfectly and felt completely rested. Each capsule is comfortable and well-equipped, with lighting, charging ports, a TV, and ventilation, which makes the stay very pleasant. There’s also a small shared area with a microwave and kettle, plus complimentary tea, coffee, towels, slippers, and toiletries — small details that make a big difference. Overall, it’s a great place for short stays in London — comfortable, safe, and excellent value for money. Highly recommend!

It’s clean, comfortable, welcoming and good price for value. They organise free diners and activities which makes the place very lively. The location is great and safe, close to hide park, nothing hill and walkable distance from touristic areas. I highly recommend it, especially as a solo female traveler :)

I like how the locker are not under the beds like most Hostels. The locker works with the same keycard to enter the room. There's also a safe and fan in all Bunk beds. Kitchen is excellent.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
