Payment Terms
Upon arrival, you will be asked to pay your first week’s accommodation charge in order for you to be checked in.

Your document will be given back to you once the check-in is fully completed the next morning.
If you have an early departure time and wish to check-out during the night or in the early morning, please speak with the manager at reception the day before regarding the refund of your deposit.
We get great feedback about our service and accommodation however we appreciate that sometimes things can go wrong. LHA has an absolutely minimal notice period for guests and so we need to work hard to make things right when this happens. We have a policy of dealing with 100% of guest issues within the hostel in the first instance and the best way to achieve this is via direct contact with the reception desk in the hostel concerned:
First instance
Guest to communicate their complaint to the duty manager at reception at the respective hostel. The team member on duty will either deal with the complaint immediately or report it to their manager for further action with a target timescale of three working days.
First escalation
If the guest is not happy with the resolution of the reception team member they should ask to speak to the House Manager at the respective hostel. The guest’s details will be taken and a time will be given to them advising when the House Manager will be able to deal with the complaint.
Second escalation
If the guest is still not satisfied with the procedure, the House Manager is not available within the stated timescales or if the complaint is about the House Manager, then they should escalate to the customer services team by emailing customerservices@lhalondon.com
The customer service team will confirm receipt within the same working day and will check that the hostel has been given the chance to resolve the issue. They will then look into the issue and will aim to resolve and reply fully within five working days.
Final appeal
If you are unhappy with the outcome from customer services after the second escalation please ask for a final appeal from the customer services team by emailing customerservices@lhalondon.com
A separate member of the customer services team will then review the response and will aim to reply fully within a further five working days. We appreciate that you can give us notice at any time, we will always respect your ability to do this and we will do all that we can to resolve your issue and to keep you choosing LHA London as your accommodation provider.
