I stayed at Destinations at The Rose & Crown, a short 5-miute walk away from London Bridge station for three nights in April 2018. Roads leading to the hostel are a little quiet but the hostel located above a pub, also named The Rose & Crown, so there would always be people around even if you're returning to the hostel late at night.

Room

We stayed in the 6 Bed Mixed Dorm. The room was clean throughout our stay there. Each bed came with a plug and there was a cage below our beds for our luggages or personal belongings. Padlocks aren't provided (and usually isn't throughout Europe) so remember to bring your own if you wish to utlise them.


Every room in Destinations at The Rose & Crown was named after London's tourist attractions, how cute!

Toilet

Destinations at The Rose & Crown has a shared toilet with two showers which, admittedly, isn't enough during peak season but we worked our way around it by waking up earlier and showering later so it didn't pose too much of a problem. The toilet was clean throughout our stay as well.

Common Area

Destinations at The Rose & Crown is situated atop a bar so it's pretty happening at night but in the morning, the space is converted into a common area with a wide array of breakfast items. Destinations at The Rose & Crown is one of the few hostels that provide free breakfast!




We made full use of the free breakfast everyday LOL.

Service

The owner attended to our worries and made small talk with us. I don't have anything to complain about.

Safety

I felt that Destinations at The Rose & Crown was located in a safe estate. Although it doubles up as a bar at night, we did not witness any uncontrollable drunkard or drunk fights.

Will I return to Destinations at The Rose & Crown?

Yes!
