Smack bang in the middle of Kensington, Hyde Park and Chelsea.

You'll be treated like royalty at the Astor Kensington – a friendly welcome 24 hours a day and no pesky curfew to get in the way of enjoying all the amazing pubs and clubs in super-cool South Kensington. Our staff are experts on going out and getting' down so don't forget to ask for all their hot tips!

This is a small, cosy hostel with just over 100 beds – a great place to make friends and create amazing memories of your stay in London. We'll bend over backwards to make sure you have a great time.

A delicious, FREE breakfast is provided every morning to get your day off to a great start and you won't have to spend your cash in expensive restaurants as we have a lovely self-catering kitchen available. There is a large supermarket less than two minutes away and more busses running past than you can poke a stick at. Our nearest tube stop is Gloucester Road, but South Kensington and Earl's Court are both within walking distance.

But wait! The best is yet to come! The Astor Kensington's location is AMAZING! You're a short walk from three of the best museums in the world – the Natural History Museum, the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Science Museum, Royal Albert Hall is just up the road and let's not forget beautiful Hyde Park, and the majestic Kensington Palace. If you're less of a museum person and more of a shopper, then you'll be in paradise at the Astor Kensington. Harrods – the greatest department store in the world – is a fifteen minute walk away through über trendy South Kensington. Or you can check out the markets, vintage shops and boutiques of Notting Hill. This is where London's hottest young things come for a bit of retail therapy – keep an eye out for Jude Law, Sienna Miller, Kate Moss and Keira Knightly, who all live in the area. And don't forget the royal Princes, William and Harry, who frequent the clubs in the area almost every weekend.

You can spend days wondering through the gorgeous boutique stores, trendy cafes and small, independent art galleries, and when you feel like a change of scenery, all the sights and sounds of central London are a mere tube ride away (or you can walk, via Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey and Big Ben).

While you're out, we make sure your belongings are safe and secure, with CCTV and a key card access system. There are also electronic safes for hire at reception for your valuables. Government Photo ID is required at check-in and please note that we only accept guests between the ages of 18-35, as we are a youth and backpacker's hostel.

So prepare to live like a king – book your bed at the Astor Kensington today!
