    The Walrus Bar And has a great location, just a short walk from Westminster station. The bar itself is cozy and cool, and I really enjoyed spending time there. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. One thing I particularly liked was the digital key system, made opening doors super convenient.

    I recently stayed at The Walrus Bar in London for a few nights. The staff was welcoming and even showed me to my room. The location was fantastic, just a short walk away from popular landmarks like the London Eye and Big Ben. The room was clean and tidy, considering it was a dorm, and the check-in process was smooth and secure. The helpful and kind staff, especially Paul, made my stay even more enjoyable.

    I would recommend this hostel.

    The location of this hostel is simply fantastic - just a few minutes' walk to major attractions like the London Eye and Big Ben. The bar area is also a fun and quirky space. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were clean. The staff were friendly and accommodating, offering a discount on drinks. Fruit was available for breakfast and there was plenty of hot water.

    The showers could use some improvement - they were small, dirty, and had broken doors.
