Property Description

Hootananny is a lively hostel with spacious rooms in a traditional Edwardian public house dating back to the early 1850s. We offer large, airy, comfortable rooms and have a great reputation for a warm atmosphere and helpful staff. We're located in the heart of Brixton with excellent transport links - a great location to stay and explore the city of London.

With just a ten-minute walk to Brixton underground station, you are straight into Central London on the tube in less than 15 minutes. As one of Londons most diverse and vibrant areas, Brixton has world famous covered and street markets, is a hub for music venues, is full of atmospheric pubs and has the pick of the worlds best cuisine with a great selection of restaurants. Hootananny is located right next to two bus stops with 24-hour connections to the city centre.

Hostellers are treated to a 20% discount on drinks at the award-winning Hootananny music venue downstairs. Hootananny is a raucous music venue in Brixton with a lively beer garden and live music Wed-Sun and sometimes in between!

- The hostel is located above a live music venue, and music can be heard throughout the hostel until fairly late on Friday and Saturday nights. This does not prove to be a problem for many of our guests, but we can provide you with earplugs if you would like to ensure a good night's sleep.
- Reception is open from 9am - 12 midnight. Check-in time is after 2pm, but if you arrive early you can always relax in our lounge room or use the amenities.
- Check-out time before 11am.
- Bookings for groups of 4 or more require pre approval from the property and full payment in advance.
- We are a backpackers hostel and do not check in local residents of London into our hostel.

Great hostel! Large kitchen with ample storage and facilities - free tea/coffee, milk and breakfasts! Lounge space/balcony good too. Showers and bathrooms not amazing but good enough. Room was fine, beds could have been slightly higher (both off floor and between bunks, unable to slide large suitcase underneath for storage and prone to hitting top bunk accidentally if you are on bottom). Great location, a bit of rumble from venue downstairs but not a big deal. Provided earplugs are rly good!

Conveniently located on the Victoria line, far enough out of the center to be affordable but close enough to still be pretty easy to get to things. The atmosphere was pretty cool, the staff was very nice but no nonsense, there’s a cool balcony. Its on top of a music venue but the entrance is hidden and separate, which made it feel kind of exotic.
