We welcome East London’s first boutique hostel – The Dictionary, Shoreditch.
We are so very proud, after almost a year of working non-stop and tirelessly, to bring you our very own first, independent hostel in a great location in Shoreditch, London – The Dictionary, Shoreditch.
Having worked for a large chain of hostels for almost a decade, owners Peter and Eliska Finlay have finally managed to find the perfect building in a vibrant, young and creative part of London. Shoreditch in East London, is set on the edge of the city and sits where East London meets Central London. Where the hostel is now there used to be an old veneer warehouse and has a wonderful industrial feel, although we have completely rewired and replumbed everything.
Translate is our cafe bar downstairs, cafe by day and bar by night with a chilled out vibe and we are all so enthusiastic and friendly and very eager to open our place up to you.
What will you get when you stay with The Dictionary, Shoreditch?
You will receive our very best attention to make sure that you have a brilliant stay with us. We want to impress you and we want to make you feel welcome. Our rooms range from shared dorms of 4 to 12 bed dorms and our private rooms consist of twins and doubles. All the rooms are en-suite and the beds all have lockable baskets underneath the bunks where you can store your luggage. There is free wi-fi for all our guests in our cafe and a tiny smoking courtyard just next to it.
