I stayed 4 weeks at the hostel as a volunteer and had a very positive experience. Working hours are respected, the team is very friendly, and the manager is flexible and kind, despite his serious look, he has a big heart 😄
The only thing I felt was missing was more integration activities for volunteers. There was one at Christmas (which I couldn’t attend), and everyone said it was great. These activities could happen more often, as socialising and cultural exchange are an important part of volunteering.
Overall, I highly recommend the experience and I’m very grateful for my time there! ❤️

I had a good time at LHA in London. The room is really nice and spacious and the working hours were always respected. The location was good to do sightseeing and explore the city. The tasks can be a bit exhausting and repetitive, but still doable, especially for a short term stay. The only thing I was missing, was the typical hostel environment, with meeting lots of different new people, because most of the guests there stay longterm and are occupied with their own life.
Overall it was a good experience to explore London for a month!

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 Railton house 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.

It was my first volunteer experience, and it was a really great one. The tasks aren't difficult, the volunteer rooms are nice, and the schedules they give you are always followed! It's a great place if you want to explore London, meet people, and practice your English. Thanks, Railton, for my stay there!
