Property Description

Safestay Holland Park

Safestay Holland Park is ideally located in the heart of London, nestled within one of the capital's most prestigious parks. This stunning hostel consists of 3 buildings, including the East Wing of the park's original Jacobean building, and surrounds our private courtyard garden.

The property has been fully refurbished to the high standards for which Safestay is renowned.

The Grade 1 listed building is located on the edge of London's famous Holland Park (search for Holland walk and duchess of Bedford Walk on your maps) and will provide Safestay guests with the opportunity to stay in the heart of one of the capital's desirable neighborhoods. The property dates back to 1605 along with a 1950's extension and is situated in a huge garden within the middle of one of London's most beautiful parks.

Historic, Jacobean splendor, in a great city location. Who says you can't have it all? This mansion in the middle of Holland Park was visited by Sir Walter Scott, Lord Byron, and Dickens. Today it offers large, comfortable rooms to you.

Three different houses with a range of standard & ensuite rooms as well as family rooms & private rooms for everyone!
Pool room, breakfast room & restaurant as well as the garden, & the whole Park itself with its famous beautiful woodland trails, manicured lawns, the Kyoto Japanese Garden with its resident Coi, and a fantastic ice cream stand in the middle.
Opened in 1952, Holland Park used to be a private estate belonging to the Earl of Holland. During the 19th century, the Holland House attracted high-profile visitors from various walks of life, from the politician, Lord Palmerston, to the poet, Lord Byron.

It’s alright, decent location but the path to it is a bit scary if at night, and feels a bit unsafe going outside if at night or early hours, too. Does have a different vibe, is less travel hostel-y and more feels like a stopover kind of place or something. The bed was actually pretty comfy for a hostel bed! And the curtain is good to have, too, for privacy. Female only dorms available as well.

I did not like my stay here. The good: staff was nice, location is great and the park is very beautifulandcalm. Price was okay and beds were comfortable. That said, the room smelled very very bad, only one shower and tiny toilets in the bathroom. Every night there were MICE in the room and lobby and they would get on top of the furniture and inside the locker cages, I even found rat poop on my jacket and they probably got inside my bags too. It's not family friendly, and the extras are expensive
