London Hostels

Here at the UK Hotels Register we try extremely hard to ensure that all London hostel and hotel accommodation which we handle is fairly represented and that you actually receive the services offered. Each establishment is personally visited at least once per year and inspected.

Unfortunately the expressions clean and safe are comparative.  What might be clean as a bedroom would not be clean as an operating theatre.  Similarly the word safe is subjective.

We have done the very best that we can to see that we do not handle any establishment where you may be excessively at risk.  For example, the area around Kings Cross Station does have some nice hotels that we will not handle.  There is simply too much crime in that area for us to contemplate including them in our pages.

Crime exists in all large cities and there are certain basic precautions you should take.

Never travel on an underground train vary late at night if you are alone.

Never carry large sums of money on your person.  Everywhere takes travellers cheques these days.

Credit cards are less vulnerable than cash, but make sure you have the numbers of all your credit cards listed somewhere safe.

Don't go out flaunting expensive jewelery or watches and be especially careful with any portable computers.  There are many Internet cafes in London.
