    I keep having issues with the maps. It is "A".

    This is what I was told:
    10 One Bedroom Open Plan Apartments for £120.00 inc VAT per apartment per night.

    Release period will be 28 days prior to arrival and individual cancellation policy is 48h prior to arrival.

    Credit/debit card is required at time of booking for prepayment.

    One double bed, only 2 adults/room. The only cot they have is for a baby.

    I checked against their website, and it seems about on par with early booking, if not slightly more expensive than booking yourself (website I got £112/night).

    YHA London
    http://www.yha.org.uk/places-to-stay/london

    Thank you for your enquiry for YHA London St Pauls or YHA London oxford Street for 30th May 2013m for 5 nights with 50-100 people.

    Both YHA London St Pauls and YHA London Oxford Street are not equipped for large groups. Our group hostels in London are YHA London Holland Park and YHA London Thameside.

    YHA London Thameside has space for 24 people for 4 nights, there are 36 beds available at YHA London Holland Park.

    As a school/college/young persons group you are entitled to a free YHA Young Persons Group Membership which gives a discount off the prices of £1.50 for under 18s and £3 for adults, per person/per night.

    If the group has full board with bed, breakfast, packed lunch, and evening meal then for every 10th person you get a free place so with 50 people you would get 4 free places.

    If the students want to contact us direct then email would probably be best [email protected]

    Like the look of Hotel Strand Continental, 10min journey and easy access to British Museum etc.

    If anyone's interested in 3 or 4 person dorm give me a shout.

    So all who are looking for hostel dorms... Quike Garcia, Najtkriss and myself are looking for some people to join us too.... together we d be already quite a group and a 9 bed dorm would be reachable...its cheaper than the smaller ones....

    I dont know how to set up a poll here, but maybe we could vote on the Hostels or something. Like that I guess it would be a bit easier to get on the same page...

    Good idea.... Maybe a thread for just the one hostel that we choose.... And everyone who's with us can post a message...

    lovely!!! Me and takashmen were talking about the trip dates. I mean we are going to be at london from 29 to 5, is there any way to manage this even if some of us have somehow different dates? i mean like in the end we[who stay longer] maintain the room even for the 1 extra day.

    @kingkostas I guess we could book the hostel from 29 to 4 for all of us who are coming, then you will book the extra night for you two as well, hopefully in the same room. But I think we can call up the hostel to arrange that.

    Would it be possible to book different rooms for different dates?

    I mean, some of us arrive on 28th, some on 29th an another bunch on 30th. I don´t know if this is an stupid idea but maybe, smaller groups could move to bigger rooms as people arrive so we can book a big cheaper room for a determinate amount of time.

    I don´t know either if any hostel will be willing to do this kind of movements.

    Any thoughts on this?

    I'll be arriving earlier, but I can find accommodations for myself until the group begins to arrive or if something happens like Jaku suggests, that too. I can't wait to make a fool of myself in front of yall

    To all who want to share a dorm:
    Onez has created a Facebook group where you can join. I think this way we can communicate better and organize this a bit more efficient.
