Zedwell Capsule Hotel Piccadilly Circus

Zedwell Capsule Hotel Piccadilly is centrally located right in the heart of London. Showers and toilets were very dirty this stay and now shower gel in any off the showers except 1 that had a queue of people waiting turn.

Very disappointing stay. The room had almost no soundproofing, and I could hear people talking and dragging suitcases in the corridor even after midnight, which made it very difficult to sleep. And there were so many Hair on the floor in bathroom! The bedside power socket was not working either, so I had no electricity next to my bed for the entire night. Although the staff eventually fixed it, I had to wait a long time for the issue to be resolved.

👉Location 10/10 👉 Clean 9/10 (toilets) 👉 Price 10/10 👉 Would stay again 10/10 The location is excellent specially if you want to watch some place and you wanna line up in the mornings for some day tickets. The hotel has its disadvantages one of those being that they are no lockers so you cannot leave your luggage after you’ve checked out, which is unfortunate but overall location in price are great. On the downside because it is such a confined space even if there is a little bit of air conditioning, it’s not strong enough and the night it’s really hot, especially in summers.

The location is insanely good. It was very quiet inside the capsule, and I would definitely consider staying here again if I come by myself in the future.

The bed capsule was very clean. Nice and comfy and very good value for the price. Toilets were not clean and no enough support from the staff.

Check in process was overall really smooth and easy. It was all automated via an IPAD and staff were there to assist if needed. The hostel is spaced over 5 floors separated with 5 rooms on each floor filled with capsules. Overall the capsule was clean and tidy however there was some light dust covering in hard to clean areas. Toilets and showers were pristinely clean and were cleaned often by a friendly cleaner. The only issue i found was there were ZERO lockers to put your belongings which may cause an issue if you have suitcases.

Stayed in a capsule for three nights. Overall, it was a great experience and very good value for money. Pros: • the capsules are very comfortable - I was able to sleep just as well as in a hotel • very cheap for the comfort, cleanliness and location • they are also very fun and different so enjoyed the new experience • the corridors are mostly silent apart from the occasional noise of people moving around • no noise from outside the building • corridors and capsules both have good air conditioning • capsules have hooks, dimible lights, a mirror and a plug socket and USB-A and C charging ports • bathrooms are cleaned regularly • the check in and out is an easy self service on an iPad but there are also staff who can assist with this and anything else if needed (for example I got a free toothbrush as I had forgotten to bring one) - I was very impressed with the customer service overall • the lobby area has vending machines for some toiletries, snacks and drinks • there is 24/7 security at the door • the location is incredibly central and just 30 seconds from the underground - but so much of Central London is within walking distance • especially good value for solo travellers Cons: • towels are not included so you need to bring your own or pay • luggage storage is the same • the capsules have a lock on the inside but you need a padlock for the outside which is not provided (you can buy one from the vending machines in the lobby) • there is only one vertical bar per capsule to hang up a towel - you might struggle to dry wet clothes if it was rainy • there is a big room of toilet and shower cubicles - the shower cubicles have a small bench and area for changing, which gets wet when you use the shower - making changing a bit uncomfortable (perhaps installing floor-length shower curtains between the sections could help) • the local area is very touristy so you miss out on the slightly quieter London neighbourhood feel of somewhere people actually live • the area can be a bit rowdy at night • not great facilities for shaving However no hostel or hotel is going to be perfect at this price, especially in such a central part of London. I was quite skeptical of staying in this kind of accomodation, but overall I loved my stay and it was brilliant value. I will definitely be staying here again many times in the future when I am in London and I would highly recommend it. Tips for staying here: • bring your own padlock and towel • bring flip flops, sliders or sandals for the toilet and showers • women who would prefer not to share facilities with men can book women's only capsules • pack light - there isn't a lot of space for bags and large bags aren't allowed in the capsule

The capsule hotel is nice and clean. It is a budget choice! You can find supermarket nearby.
