O?Callaghan?s is a small, friendly backpacker?s hostel in the heart of London. We've been taking young Aussie, Kiwi and South African backpackers for over 65 years.

We are seconds away from many pubs, clubs, restaurants and minutes from museums, parks and galleries. Buses can be caught directly outside and the tube is thirty seconds walk from our front door.
