Disliked: Staff & service
Perfect location, but this place is actually call Piccadilly hostel at the building, not what we read on orbitz, besides that, they do provide a bath towel, not no towel on hotel info, the door of capsule do not lock unless you bring a lock, it woudl be more helpful if those info is included on booking. Besides once a finish the online check in before arrival, I did drop some msg to the host/staff, none of them got reply, on that, it’s better to jus shut down that part or give us an email to reach the hotel.

Abandoned stay

I had to abandon my stay at 1am as the Air conditioning didn't work, making it imposisble to sleep. It is a building site still - it is not a Zedwell product so don't exepct anything like that. There pods have no security so you can leave anything in them. Bedding sheet didnt fit the mattress. Won't offer any kind of refund for having to

It is a “capsule”

Great location. Walking distance from the underground. Very friendly staff and clean capsule. Secure and comfortable. The hostel was hard to find. There was no sign “ Zedwell Capsule Hotel.” Once inside, navigating through the mazes and crawling into the capsule was a challenge. And not enough storage. Overall it was a novel experience.

Worse than I expected

It started badly: the Zedwell capsules are not at the Zed Hotel, they are in another building (under construction) with the sign 'Piccadilly Hostel'. Reception is one man in the corner of a building site. No other help on site. My capsule was on 4th floor and for a while the lift was out of service. The capsules have a only simple security. The bedding was good. The bathrooms are OK. There are no other facilities. For the area the price is good, but this is no way a fun place. I've stayed in other capsules abroad which are far better. Copenhagen recently.

Hostel mediano

Pontos positivo: localização e atendimento do Staff. Localização perfeita para quem quer aproveitar Londres com facilidade de se locomover de metrô/onibus. Tem uma estação ao lado e vários pontos de ônibus perto. O atendimento do pessoal da recepção é muito amável. Pontos negativos: o hotel está em obra, logo você vai perceber vários funcionários transitando e algum barulho de obra. A pior parte é a limpeza do banheiro. É muito sujo. A cápsula é confortável, mas o sistema de ar condicionado não funciona, ou seja, faz muito calor dentro da cápsula. O chuveiro tem um sistema que precisa ficar apertando um botão a cada 5 segundos para sair água tornando difícil tomar banho. Tem poucos armários para guardar suas coisas e não tem como trancar, logo se precisar, tem que deixar dentro da cápsula. Aconselho levar seu próprio cadeado

Først og fremst så er det ikke et hotell, men et hostel. Man finner frem ved og bruke google maps og søke frem Piccadilly Hostel. Usikker om den driftes av Zedwell. Stedet er fortsatt under renovasjon den nærmeste tiden, så vær forberedt på arbeidere og stengte dører. Helt greit til en rimelig penge- om man ikke skal bli over lengre tid. Husk og ta med hengelås til dørene/port til sengen.
Inngang til seng.
Vifte og lys. Viften br�åker om man er sensitiv for lyd.

I’ve paid a lot more money to get a lot less.

it’s still brand-new, so when you walk into the reception, it’s a little bit like a building site, but once you get up to the fifth floor which is Ladies only it is immaculate. It’s a little bit of a maze up there but I was really impressed by how clean the bathrooms were and how big. The capsules are stacked in a terrace formation which allows for a lot more privacy so your entranceway is really only ever looking at one other one. The bed was super comfy the pillow was comfy, everything was nice and clean inside the capsule and I really loved the mirror at the end that made it feel much more spacious. The sound dampening was excellent. I honestly don’t remember having a better or quieter night sleep in any hotel in London. The staff all really nice and friendly and welcoming too. There’s lots of storage space for luggage on the side of the capsules but if you have a small bag, you can just take it inside with you which is what I did. A small padlock so you can lock your capsule while you’re out during the day.
