O'Callaghan's dans Londres, Angleterre

At O'Callaghan's we like people to feel at home so we're set up not as a traditional hostel but like a big, friendly shared house and we must be doing it right as we've been here for over 70 years!

We mainly specialise in Australian, New Zealand and South African backpackers and we're an ideal platform if you're coming to London looking for work and eventually settling in to a place of your own.

We're not the Ritz but we're clean, friendly and safe and will even throw in a beer when you check in.

We're seconds away from many pubs, clubs, supermarkets and restaurants and minutes from museums, parks and galleries. Buses can be caught directly outside and the tube is thirty seconds walk from our front door.

Included in the price is free breakfast, free Wi-Fi, free use of the lockers, free use of the kitchen, free yea, coffee, Milo and soup all day, free city tours (subject to availability), free bed linen, free tourist info, free use of our safe and advice on getting jobs, taxes and things to do and see in the city. We offer cheap international calls and if you're staying for two weeks or more you'll also get a free mobile SIM card.

Rooms include free bed linen.

There's no curfew.

Please note that we do not accept guests under the age of 18 or over 35 or groups of more than four people. Please read our Things to Note below before booking.

We are London's smallest, oldest hostel, offering clean, safe and fun accommodation to backpackers for over 70 years.

Enjoy a nice complimentary beer when you check-in and we also offer free hot/cold drinks, Milo and soups all day.

We're beside many clubs, pubs, restaurants, supermarkets and not too far from museums, galleries and parks. We offer free tours around the city and tourist information, so you can get the most of your stay. Bus and tube stations are just steps away from the hostel.

If you are coming to London to work or for a long term stay, this is the hostel that will get you settled. We offer free mobile SIM cards if you're booked for more than two weeks, cheap international calls to keep in touch with loved ones, advice, help and tips on finding work and what is there to do and see in London.

On nice warm days, especially in the summer we have BBQs in our garden, which are often free and garden parties. Guests can also use our BBQ facilities. There is no curfew and you can use the safe free of charge. We have satellite TV in our common room for when you want to chill out.
