Guest reviews for Generator London
I really enjoyed staying here. Clean and nice rooms. I stayed in a room with 10 beds in it and the people who stayed there while i did were very respectful. The shower was my favorite part because it was like being under a waterfall. Amazing. I would recommend people to come here. Central. Cheap. Awesome.

Dear guest, We are happy that you had a great time at Generator. We hope we will see you again in the future. Kind Regards, Guest Relations Team
The front entrance were all steps. The lift was broken for 3 days and we had to carry our heavy suitcase up 4 flights of stairs. If you were tall then the shower facilities would be a problem. Some of the shower heads were very low. Cheap accommodation for a cheap stay. Don't spend too long here.

Dear Guest, thank you for taking the time to give us a feedback! We are sorry to know you didn't quite enjoy your stay with us! Unfortunately this is an old building so sometimes spaces are limited. About the lift, we fixed it recently and I'm sorry you were here when it wasn't working. Regards, Reception team
Friendly and attentive staff
When we arrived there were a few minor issues with our room. I emailed the staff and within minutes they responded saying they’d have someone fix them that afternoon. Service was very prompt and all issues were quickly rectified which was great!

Dear guest, we are happy that you enjoyed your stay with us and the activities that we have going on everyday. We hope to welcome you back again soon. Best wishes
Fun hostel, great location.
I've never stayed at a Generator hostel before but will definitely keep an eye out for them in the future! I couldn't believe how big this one was! The vibe was cool.. It was fun, funky, laid back. had a great stay. People on front desk could probably do with some customer service skills update though. And I had a friend come for drinks and thought the whole signing in thing was a bit odd... We were waiting around far too long for someone to sort it for us which kinda killed the buzz. But other than that- would definitely suggest to friends.

Hey there, thanks for getting in touch after your recent stay with us, it's great to hear from you and to understand that for the most part we have been able to meet your expectations. We appreciate your feedback regards to the team and I will pass these along to our Reception Manager. We sign all non guests into the building so that we know who is in house for evacuation and fire safety, but I apologize if it took a while to get you set up. We hope to see you back at Generator London again soon. Best Wishes, Nathan Roberts, Guest Relations - Generator London
