Guest reviews for Hotel Strand Continental - Hostel

4 out of 5

Great location! Perfect for student travelers!

Pros: Location, friendly staff, free breakfast!
Cons: It's a budget hostel, so not much I can think of perhaps Wifi accesible from rooms?
Location: The location speaks for itself. Very central to many things in London.
Very pleasant experience. I wasn't able to hold my reservation because my flight got delayed, but the staff did their absolute best to accomadate me and even though the hotel was completely booked they were able to get me a room 4 out of 5 days and I really appreciated that. The manager and staff went above and beyond and I would not mind staying here again in the future. The place is a hostel, therefore I didn't have high expectations for the room conditions, but it was decent and fairly clean. Alsom definitely better than other locations I have been to. If you are a student or a budget traveler looking for a great location cheap and central this is perfect and I highly recommend it!:)
