Why Smart Groups Choose a Private Room at NX London Instead of a Hotel
Let’s face it, London isn’t cheap.
From attraction tickets and transportation to dining out and entertainment, costs can add up quickly. For many groups, accommodation ends up being the single biggest expense. With London tourism now exceeding pre-pandemic visitor levels and demand for rooms remaining high, hotel prices continue to put pressure on travel budgets.
The good news? You don’t have to sacrifice comfort or privacy to save money.
At NX London Hostel, groups can book private rooms that often cost significantly less than reserving multiple hotel rooms, while still enjoying the privacy of having a room exclusively for their group.
The Hidden Cost of Hotels for Small Groups
Many travelers automatically start their search with hotels. It seems like the obvious choice, until they start doing the math.
A family of five might need two hotel rooms. A group of six friends may need three rooms. Even a group of three often ends up paying extra for larger hotel accommodations or booking multiple rooms.
At NX London, groups stay together in one private room, making it easier to manage costs and enjoy the experience as a group.
Unlike hotels, NX London’s private rooms are designed around comfortable bunk bed configurations, allowing more guests to stay together while keeping costs low.

A Real Guest Perspective
As frequent traveler Chris Schwenk explains:
“By staying at NX LONDON, my family saved hundreds per night. A private room ensuite gave us the privacy and comfort of a hotel.”
It’s a sentiment shared by countless guests who discover that private hostel rooms can offer much of what they love about hotels while keeping far more money in their travel budget.
Five Reasons Budget-Conscious Groups Choose Hostels Over Hotels
1. More Money for Experiences
Most people visit London to see London, not to spend their entire budget on accommodation.
When you save on lodging, you have more money available for attractions, restaurants, theatre tickets, shopping, and day trips.
2. Better Value Per Person
The more people sharing a private room, the lower the overall accommodation cost per traveler.
For families and friend groups, that can mean substantial savings compared to booking multiple hotel rooms.
3. Stay Together
Hotels often split groups across different floors or rooms.
At NX London, your group stays together in one private space, making the trip more enjoyable and convenient.
4. Social Atmosphere
Hotels can feel isolated.
Hostels create opportunities to meet fellow travelers from around the world, swap travel tips, and enjoy a lively international atmosphere.
5. Practical Facilities for Travelers
Modern hostels have evolved significantly.
Today’s travelers want clean accommodations, communal spaces, reliable Wi-Fi, and affordable prices. NX London delivers all of that while maintaining one of the best values in the city.
