Female Housekeeping volunteer in London

Vir para o hostel Paddington/o hostel foi a melhor escolha que fiz! Conheci pessoas incríveis e tive experiências mágicas em Londres. Eles cumprem os horários como combinado, a acomodação é ótima e a comida melhor ainda. Eles fornecem as 2 refeições prometidas e você consegue pegar “sobras” para a refeição livre, o que foi perfeito. Super recomendo para quem quer conhecer Londres, pois a localização é maravilhosa. Com toda certeza voluntariaria aqui novamente❤️

Apliquei para este voluntariado com o intuito de desenvolver meu inglês, consegui! Minhas colegas de quarto eram da Nova Zelândia e da Nigéria, passei muito tempo com elas praticando. Fiquei um mês no hotel e conheci muitos brasileiros também, todos muito queridos, mas para praticar o inglês é importante você evitá-los de vez em quando. A rotina no hotel era muito tranquila, eles respeitam o horário combinado, temos café da manhã e jantar, sem contar que podemos pegar as sobras do jantar para almoçar no dia seguinte, e sempre sobra :). A localização é ótima, eu basicamente fiz tudo a pé.

Everything was arranged nicely. You get 2 meals a day. Both nice. Work schedule is super clear, which is really nice. For being here while doing something else, I completely recommend. If this is your way of meeting new people and getting new experiences, I would like to recommend looking elsewhere. While I was there, there was no communal vibes/activities/etc. Most people are staying long-term, which gives a different vibes than most hostels. But as I have said before everything is pretty nice, the rooms are great, work is good and staff is always available for help.

I had a great time at the hostel and met the loveliest people along the way. The staff was always accommodating with any issue and really tried finding a solution that works for everyone. The times of work were respected, depending on what shift you get it can be more or less intense. The food was surprisingly tasty (especially if you like Indian/spicy food) and had vegetarian options as well. Unfortunately there was nothing provided for using the kitchen to cook for yourself.

I had a great time at the hostel. All the other volunteers were amazing and it was wonderful getting to know them. You get your hours at the beginning of your stay and they stay the same throughout so you can plan days or accordingly. The food is good, although a little repetitive and as a volunteer if there are leftovers you can save some if you like. I worked in the kitchen which had its own sub-community which was really nice. There is a separate kitchen but you will need to buy your own pots, pans, cooking and eating utensils, etc. if you'd like to use it. Thanks to all those at the hostel.

It's a great option to get to know London. 20 hours/week with 2 days off gives you plenty of time to explore and also the location makes everything more accessible. I met incredible people and i loved the roommates I shared bedroom with, we really connected. The reason why i wouldn't give 5 starts is because they say they have equipped kitchen but you only have stove and fridge. If you want to cook, you'd have to buy everything needed to do so, including soap for example. As a vegetarian that made things a little bit difficult, considering i usually cook my own meals.

I had a good experience at the hostel, the work was easy and the hours were respected. The Hostel is at a great location and its very easy to explore the rest of the city. The rooms were comfortable and clean. Its not the most social hostel, since most of the guests are staying for a long time and the volunteers are divided across multiple rooms, so if you are looking for a place with lots of social engagement this might not be perfect for you. I still met some great people though and had a lot of fun.

The location was excellent: very central and close to Hyde park. The duties were meal preparation, dish washing, and housekeeping. These were taught to us by other volunteers and instructions were at times rushed which was made trickier by the mixture of accents and lack of a written proceedure to refer to. Communication was one of the bigger challenges which I was surprised by being a native English speaker. However, besides this, the volunteers and manager were very friendly and welcoming, and I created some great friendships with my roommates.

I had a great time at the hostel London! The team definitely respected the working hours - however, the work was not always a walk in the park: some of the premises were really dirty (e.g. the kitchen in the basement), which in my opinion would require professional deep cleaning from time to time – something that volunteers without training simply cannot provide... The staff and volunteers were all super friendly and welcoming! Many thanks to the hostel for making this first volunteer experience possible for me. I can recommend it with a clear conscience!! Best regards Enie :)

Nice place with kind people! Great location to explore all of London and the work is not too difficult. Hours are respected and you often end up with lunch as well as breakfast and dinner if you take leftovers. Over all I had a good experience but since a lot of residents are staying long term, the environment is not like a regular hostel (less travelers and tourist and more students or workers). Thanks the hostel for a good stay!
