Everything was good about the place apart from the fact you're above a night club, music was vibrating and thumping until 4:30am. Avoid staying on 1st floor during weekend.

This is one of the worst hostels I’ve ever stayed in. My first night there was a Saturday night and I was in room 212. The nightclub below the hostel was so loud that it shook the bed. They don’t seem to care that people are yelling either. The noise didn’t stop until nearly 4am. My last two nights were a little quieter. There was someone in the room who snored so loud it sounded like a chainsaw was running. I woke them up probably a dozen times on Sunday night. The security guy stands by the front door and smokes so the entire place smells like cigarette smoke. Are you old enough to remember 1997 AOL dial up internet? Unfortunately you’ll wish their internet is as fast as that. It’s so slow it’s worthless. If you want to sleep, do not stay here.

Beds were exceptionally comfortable, I wish the pillows were the same,service was fantastic, but I wish microwaves were available to the guests because my food was burnt and wasted twice since I could not personally check on it. Hot tub needs to be warmer, the rooms were a bit too toasty. Overall though amazing stay!!

Room Nice and clean. staff friendly, couldn’t fault it. Although not private bathroom which wasn’t clearly advertised and wouldn’t have booked if I realised. Room was good size though but people coming in at 3am without consideration of other sleeping ruined it slightly.

Revolver is like a cool, queer-friendly frat house (which could be super fun!) — except I’m a 34-year-old woman who has regrettably aged out of the vibe. Pros: - Chic aesthetic. - Large, stylish (but kinda dark) rooms. - Amazing location near Central and Queen Stations. - Friendly staff. - Plenty of showers. - Delmonica’s, the queer club downstairs, is super fun! Cons: - It is SO. F***ING. LOUD. OMG. Between the two nightclubs downstairs (one closes at 4AM!!!) and the people upstairs (making attempts at?) having sex - dear Lord, I did not have even one restful night! The complimentary earplugs, coupled with my noise-canceling headphones were no match. I was on the first floor, right above/inside (?) the subwoofers apparently. Please invest in soundproofing! - Bathrooms were gross by evening — smelly, unflushed toilets, sticky floors. Not the fault of staff, but other guests. - A bit unsocial in common areas. Not a big deal, just less friendly than I expected. I’m writing this at 3AM before a morning flight, with bass vibrating my whole room (great DJ though) and yelling from drunk Saturday night patrons. I’m not a light sleeper, but unfortunately I am a bit too grown for this. If you’re younger than me, I love this for you! But if you’re at that stage of life where you like to do your hour-long night routine in the privacy of your own bathroom — and excessive noise has started to give you tinnitus and a headache — lovingly skip this one, babe. Your ears will thank me 😘

The lobby smelt of fresh vomit all the time. The “upgraded room” had a leaking smell of sewage in the night, and I could hear the sewage pipe very loud and clear running down the side of the wall, like people upstairs were flushing the toilets very frequently. The loud club music downstairs was invasive. Overall no where near worth £240 for 3 nights. Very overpriced, and I am not satisfied.
