This hostel is close to Euston and Kings Cross Stations, so is very convenient. The staff were very welcoming, which was a great first impression. It was all very easy, beds were made up, the place is clean and the atmosphere friendly. more

Was really surprised by the facilities are The Generator Hostel... The rooms and beds were decent, the bathrooms were HUGE and VERY clean and theres plenty of space to put towels and your clothes inside the showers.. The bars are great and the location is amazing. Have recommended this place to all my friends!! more

well i arrived at heathrow airport and the clerk suggested the Generator because it was easy to get to from heathrow airport. So when i jump on the tube(train) it took about a hour to get there. Then I walk to the hostel just afew minutes. It literally was a alley I was walking down finally,it was all crowed and... more

I stayed here on two different occasions (before and after a Contiki tour) and had fun. It's definately not a place I would recommend to anyone over 26 or anyone not interested in the party scene but since I was travelling alone, it was a decent place to meet fellow backpackers.

I was in London for a bit of jolly boys so really the hotel was no more than somewhere to store stuff and get a full four hours sleep. The room was clean but very very basic. It reminded... more

We stayed in London during peak time and were only able to book a place at the Generator. It is in a quiet part of town. I liked the location and thought it had good access to other places via King's Cross. We stayed in a four person room and shared with two others. The room was a bit small... more

I read alot of reviews about the Generator before I went there and I was worried after reading some really bad reviews. But I have to say that this hostel is really great. I stayed in a private 2 bed room for six nights. The room, showers and bed was really clean. Toilets was ok. Breakfast was good. Security was... more

then stay somewhere else. Anywhere else. The staff was rude, and the credit card machine did not work. The rooms themselves were low class, even for a wallet-friendly hostel. The beds were creaky and the pillows, sheets, and blankets were itchy and dirty. All I can say is thank goodness that I did not witness a black light over the... more
