YHA Medway

We had a lovely stay! The stone baked pizzas were very good and the panini was served with a fresh, crisp salad. The breakfast was also very nice and good value. We only stayed for one night so we didn't explore the location. The facilities were very clean and our 3 children enjoyed playing table tennis. The gentleman on reception was very helpful and friendly and the hostel had a welcoming feel to it. We would definitely recommend it.

Very bad comparing to other yha we stayed . This is the 5th yha we stayed as a group .kitchen too small for a group. 3 people can't stand in the kitchen at one time . Carpet are very old and smelly . Sofa was very old and disgusting and one sofa is broken . Downstairs rooms had lots of ant infestation. All the rooms were stuffy . No glasses were available for wine and alcohol. Normally its available in other yha site . Backyard of the hostel was disgusting. We had to do through clean. Some of the showers were broken or hard to close .We were all nurses and we travelled 400 miles to relax but accommodation was absolute nightmare. Never had any problem with other yha sites . It too expensive for such a accommodation.

Stayed for a night enroute home. As a family of 5 it was brilliant to have a room that catered for all of us rather than a room for 4 with a 5th squeezed in - room had double bed with single above and another set of single bunks. Room was very clean although was concerned that window locks/tethers were broken so they were free to open wide, not great when there's a direct route to concrete below. Showers were more than adequate although would have appreciated a toilet in the corridor too.Also be aware that you need to order breakfast the night before, staff didn't ask us when we checked in so we didn't know and assumed it would be available. Chef offered to accommodate us but we were a bit tight for time sadly so went elsewhere.

Great fun budget accommodation. The staff seems like a nice chap as well. The breakfast really set us up for the day. Only issue was that the bedroom was really hot. Was hot weather though.

I booked the hostel on exclusive hire basis.We were 8 families with kids.Had a great Christmas celebrations.Excellent facilities.Nice,clean,warm and cosy place.Plenty of space for the kids to run around.Great manager,place is run very well.Well equipped kitchen.The hostel had lovely Christmas decorations.Table tennis on site and a great park for walks opposite.!Thank you YHA Medway!

Beautiful building manned by very friendly staff. Clean beds. Well-equiped kitchen tot prepare your own meals. Lots to see in Rochester and Chatham. Room was hot and smelled a bit funky.

I stayed here myself in November 2019 for 5 nights. A place in a clean 4-bed room was kindly provided to me!The hostel, it's location, the park nearby were excellently memorable and warm to my heart!In the hostel there are everything a tourist need - well-equipped kitchen, cozy dining room, clean bathroom and warm beds with tidy beddings.Сourteous, helpful and obliging staff made visiting of this place a real pleasure!I want to come here again!

Great place to stay on a tight budget.Beautiful historic Oast House building, sensitively restored.Good facilities and friendly staff.Quiet location in lovely surroundings.Good number of parking spaces.Outdoor picnic area is particularly nice spot to get out on the lawn and enjoy the sunshine in summer. Reasonable options for purchasing evening meals and the option to use the self-catering kitchen which is well equipped and clean.Lounge with cosy sofa and easy chairs and a delightful wood burning stove!

A ok stay for a family, the room was located right next to showers but unfortunately the toilets were through 2 sets of narrow hall ways with very heavy fire doors. Self catering kitchen is very small and has no ventilation so becomes very hot and cooking smells linger. Room was unbearably hot throughout the stay. The staff were very polite, friendly and helpful, they went out of their way to ensure your stay was as comfortable as possible.

The YHA property was not maintained properly. Our group was very disappointed with the overall quality and facilities that was provided. It was shocking of us as we used YHA at different parts of the country and this so far was the worst.Carpets damp and smelly, the kitchen not well equipped not even proper glasses for drinks.The worst been the cold taps that was constantly giving us hot water. Many children had burnt their hands, even adults found it difficult.Some showers couldn’t be closed by women and had needed help.Sofa with a broken leg.David communicated well with us but looked helpless using Covid protocol as an excuse.Overall a very bad experience and not happy with the hostel at all.The hostel was not worth the money we spent on it.Hoping YHA official to look into this matter and get back to us as well.
