About White Ferry House
Hostel above a Victorian pub with private and dorm rooms, plus free breakfast and Wi-Fi.
Grade II listed, this end-of-terrace pub, first licensed in 1832 and rebuilt in 1894, comprises a small triangular public bar, matchboard panelled and simply furnished, and a homely saloon with a stripped wooden floor, a panelled counter with bar stools, an ornate wood and mirror back-bar and dining tables with comfortable chairs.
Apart from the cask ale on offer, the pub has an extensive range of London bottled beers, ordered by numbers. Food centres on burgers and residents of the 74-bed youth hostel upstairs enjoy discounts at the bar. Eclectic range of unobtrusive piped music!
Note alcohol not for sale until noon on Sundays.
The giant Ei pubs group bought a 51% stake in operator PubLove in April 2017.

The location is fine, and very nice service with a great room. The washroom is clean, with a fine shower. I would like to recommend for those who are traveling with a low budget. One of the best accommodations compared to its price.

Summary: This place was a huge disappointment. Booking.com should remove it from their listings because the photos do not reflect reality. It has the potential to be a 5-star hostel if properly managed, but the current state is unacceptable. Staff and Service: The staff seem to dislike their job and show no interest in serving customers. I understand that working in hospitality can be tough—I’ve done it myself—but if you dislike dealing with people, you shouldn’t be in the industry. The staff made me feel like they were doing me a favor rather than providing a service I was paying for. For…

Location near Victoria means I'll come here again. The room felt secure using a card system and the bed was good. Criticism is no UK building should ever have a combined shower and toilet washroom... With no ventilation. An easy way to improve that would be to put down plastic mats that get replaced every 6 months.

Staff is amazing! They go above and beyond and are always willing to help with any request or concerns. Now, the bathroom situation was a bit much. I have stayed at hostals before, but overall, you can adjust. Good and safe for females to walk at late nights alone.
