Generator Hostel

With a handily central Bloomsbury location, the Generator is a good option for those on ultra-tight budgets. It has been part of a global refit of the chain, creating private rooms for £50 or so a night, and adding an in-house cinema and individual room lockers (to be fastened with your own padlock). There’s free Wi-Fi throughout, of course, plus a lounge that hosts regular gigs and DJs. The laundry, luggage store and hotel-style reception all stay open 24hrs a day.

At Generator Hostels, you get boutique style without breaking your budget. We’re the fastest growing hostel brand in Europe because we bring affordable luxury and awe-inspiring social experiences to travelers and locals in Europe’s coolest cities
