For anyone wanting to find a second home away from your hometown: the hostel is the place to be. I spent the most fun and lively month in London. The kindness I found in the other volunteers and receptionists is unmatched and made the place feel like a family home ❤️ Working hours are completely reasonable and just as described. You learn how to keep a hostel clean and welcoming to travellers from all over the world. Thank you the hostel for the best club nights, free dinners and movie sessions. Life in Notting Hill has been a blast!

Don't have words for how much this place and these people mean to me. Reception is amazing and curated a safe, fun and positive vibe. The ratio of work to days off was perfect, and the space is so special. Leah has created such a family environment that I will carry with me always! Thanks for helping me grow ❤️

My experience at the hostel has truly been amazing. The hostel is super nice, the shifts are as expected and very flexible, and the location is great. But most importantly, the other volunteers and receptionist are absolutely amazing and made this experience so memorable. They've all been super welcoming from the beginning, which creates the best vibes around the hostel. I highly recommend volunteering here, I would 100% do it again. Thank you all so much.
