Guest Reviews
Very good vibe from all the staff, all the time they organise activities to make friends! Connie the receptionist is really kind!
Everyone is amazing. Big shout out to Bailey in my team for the quiz game, whom I believe is one of the hosts. Great vibe and love her energy!
It was very friendly, very communication oriented.
Great environment! Very social, wonderful activities everyday, and a very friendly and helpful staff. 10/10. Best hostel in London. Shout-out to Jacko for keeping the fortress alive. Big props to Connie for holding down the front reception. Bailey, Elize, Ben, and Anna encouraging my outfit addiction. 😁 Drew and Charlotte for the tours. MAX POWER. Will for his chill. Charity for being my drink volunteer. Selam for her welcoming energy. Isaac for being a hype game master. And everyone else for being awesome! All the cool memories and friends I met.
Great staff here especially kelly,Pao,Connie and Monika. Free food made by the brilliant staff also free nights out with discounts what else could you ask for!
This hostel had the best social aspect I’ve experienced at a hostel so far! Everyone was so nice and the activities really facilitated getting to know each other. Staff was super fun and welcoming to everyone. Especially loved Paola, Jacko, and Kelly. Looked forward to dinner, drinking games, and pub crawl every night!
Staff were amazing, Paola, Kelly and the rest of the staff team were incredible. Free nights out and free family dinners, what else could one want
The staff was lovely! A big shout out to Bailey for being so kind and always making sure everyone feels welcome.
The staff is very professional and kind. The hostel is a very good place to meet new people who are into traveling and meeting people. I can only recommend it.
The hostel is offering guided tours during the day which were pretty amazing. I’ve met a lot of great people. The staff in general is pretty cool especially Jack, Paola, Monika and Bailey were very kind, open, always positive and were trying to involve everyone there.
Onefam Waterloo is the kind of hostel I won't forget. When I was booking the hostel, I noticed how many people mentioned its vibe and activities, and they're right! I arrived a bit later at night, but the friendly staff checked me in and explained everything to me in detail. The most special thing about this hostel is that it organizes daily walking tours and many other activities. The hostel, however, strikes a good balance for those who want to rest and have a quiet night sleep at night. (There are quiet hours.) Even an introvert like me still managed to have a good time with fellow travelers and made some new friends (shout-out to those in Germany!). I just wish I was staying longer and had more time to join more walking tours and activities. In terms of the room, it's quite a standard hostel dorm with lockers that require your own locks. The toilets are clean. The shower is a bit older, but I really didn't mind. After all, it's the people that count.
I have been here for my second time, and it only gets better. Staff is always so caring and nice, it really makes you feel at home. The social aspect is always the best thing. Time to go to the others around Europe
The staff was amazing, very helpful and friendly. It has a nice location, close to the bus station and the metro. The common area had always with a fun atmosphere.
Staff had a great attitude and were very welcoming and friendly
Very close to most attractions, the staff is super friendly and helpful, free dinner DAILY, night out DAILY 😅🥰. Will definitely stay here everytime I’m in London.
An absolutely amazing social environment with staff going above and beyond in terms of organising activities and generally just making the experience what it was. You're missing out on some great memories if you don't end up booking OneFam Waterloo
Stop looking at other hostels, if u wanna party this is the hostel to stay at, damn life getting in the way of more holidays. Came here on a sper of the moment trip and just kept extending, the staff, the free activities and all the guests. Just make this top three best hostels in Europe. We'll at least to me. Can't wait to come back again.
Jackson u beast, funniest check in I've ever had. Can't recommend this place more the staff and other guests are just amazing
The staff were amazing all of them, but, especially Elize and Connie, they made me feel at home from the moment I walked in the day, and genuinely cared when they asked questions, and not just questions for the sake of it. They provided the best recs especially for coffee and on what to do, for someone who just took a trip on a whim. The hostel has free activities everyday and night which is incredible, and they are actually free which is nice. I like the fact that all there activities start with something sober (if u choose) which just makes it so much easier getting to know all the guests, what everyone did and then all the staff always make u feel comfortable and safe, if u want to party party u can, but if u still wanna join and not wake up with a headache u still can. If u never stayed at a hostel before, or stayed at more than few, this is my rec for first timers what and as long u keep that mind open, ask for a joke on check in and u leave feeling like u just wanna come back, which is why I extended three times. Can't wait to see you all soon, you absolute legends
