London is such a popular place to visit for shopping,study and touring the capital that over the years it has developed a huge network of well run hostels.

The YHA(Youth Hostels Association) is one of the better known hostels in the UK. It has eight hostels in the capital,including a stunning town house in Earl's Court which was recently re-opened after some refurbishment. The organisation also has another one by St Paul's Cathedral - a former choirboy's accommodation called St Christopher's Inn.

If you want more details then its worth looking at their website because they have the latest information on deals, cheap prices and unusual venues which may be vacant. You can get budget accommodation from as low a price as five pounds.
