This is my second time staying at Ithaka Raml Hostel which is becoming like home in Alex for me. Perfect location, walking distance to almost all main attractions. Supermarkets and cafes all around. Amazing interior colours and common space. Clean rooms, comfy beds, tasty filling breakfast and decent WiFi. Super friendly staff that make you feel like family or a missed old friend. 🥰❤️

At the time of writing this review, I stayed in a double room with a balcony for 750 EGP per night. The accommodation is ideally located in the heart of Corniche, Alexandria's beautiful coastal road. It is situated in a building right next to Saad Zaghloul Square, surrounded by restaurants, cafes, convenience stores, markets, and shopping complexes. The Corniche itself offers a priceless experience for leisurely strolls. Located on the 4th floor, the hotel provides a balcony with stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea, bathed in warm sunlight. The room is spacious and comfortable, equipped with everything you might need, including a TV, fan, air conditioning (unused during winter), a table, and chairs. There’s very little to ask for beyond what is already provided. Hot water is readily available and works perfectly. While it’s not a luxury hotel, one thing I can confidently say is that this is the best choice you can find for 750 EGP per night. If you are a long-term backpacker or planning to spend extended time in Alexandria, often called the "Bride of the Mediterranean," I highly recommend the Transit Hotel. The staff is friendly and available 24/7. Although breakfast service is not provided, there’s a common hall with tables where you can freely relax. If you need anything, the thoughtful owner, Mohamed, and the staff will go out of their way to assist you. Mohamed is incredibly capable and kind. Thank you, Mohamed, for your hospitality, and Happy New Year to everyone reading this review! Transit Hotel—highly recommended!

All hostels in Alexandria

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The staff were very kind and friendly! This hostel introduces advanced devices such as a fingerprint lock, a remote controlled washing machine and so on. This makes the hostel comfortable and safe.

There are private rooms and bathrooms in a great location and price. It's not luxurious. If you are a backpacker, you will be able to have a rest at a reasonable price.
