Meininger

Situated close to the Natural History Museum, Harrods and Hyde Park, the Meininger's South Kensington location is a great place to base yourself during your stay in London.

"Hotel Quality at Hostel Prices" is the motto here and it is certainly one of the better hostels in the city and with prices ranging from £13 up to £69 for a single room there is a good choice of accommodation over 47 rooms on six floors.

However, the selling point which most attracted myself was the all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet which is included in the price. Fuel yourself up with probably the best breakfast buffet I have enjoyed.....in a hostel anyway!

There is a 24-hour reception and most rooms are en-suite with lockable cabinets in the dorms. Parking is available and you can also catch some great views from the roof terrace.

This hostel is well set up for large groups of teens.
