you can always find hostels that have spare beds, they run on a 10% vacancy to allow for people who just rock up on their door step |

is it much fun rocking up to paris/london/berlin/prague in summer and trying to find accomodation on the spot, or wise to organise something in advance? (any recommendations :P) |
depends, do you want to spend the first day in the city trying to find accomodation?
Sure they might keep some beds free for walkups, but then there are a lot of walkups (in those places especially). But then I'm the type of person who has to have everything organised, its just who I am.
London I can help you with, the Astor Museum Hostel is pretty decent. Decent rooms, only a couple of toilets and showers though, but I never had to wait so it doesn't seem to be a problem. Great location, right across the road from the British Museum, about 2-3 minutes walk from 2 tube stations (on different lines, one of which is the Picadilly line which runs to-from Heathrow), awesome little park just up the street which is great to chill out it, heaps of cafes and pubs just nearby too. And you're really close into the centre of London anyway (an area called Bloomsbury, like 3 tube stops max to anywhere of interest). |

oh I just remembered that Wombats is supposed to be opening a hostel in Berlin. If its anything like Wombats Munich it'll be a winner. (I stayed with relatives in Berlin so I don't know any hostels there)
In case you don't know, hostelz.com is pretty useful, has pretty much every hostel in every city with reviews and pictures and stuff. I find it to be pretty handy when I'm looking for hostels. |
