Best hotel throughout our trip. Amazing staff, they waited for us for 1 am check-in. Very hospitable hosts, they provided us with a bunch of city life-hacks and must-see recommendations. We were impressed by the rooms, they are very clean and designed for humans (decoration, bathroom and comfortable beds). When we return to Budapest we’ll definitely stay here again and again.

The space is mesmerizing, I really wished I were staying for a few weeks and not just for a weekend. The amount of dedication, care and creativity invested is sensible everywhere you step. A very zen place that creates calm in your mind too 😊 It was very clean and tidy, the staff was very friendly and welcoming and sent great tips in advance. An absolute 10, looking forward to coming back!

All hostels in Budapest

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.

Great location of the hostel, you can reach it by walking from the train station as well. The staff was friendly, the room was clean and the air condition was decent - it was cool enough in the room but not too cold for me to get sick. I really appreaciated the sockets were located above each bed. The bathroom in the room was also really appreciated. In general, I think this is one of the best hostels I have ever visited, especially for such decent price! I would definitely love to come back one day!

We stayed here for a stag do for two nights. What a great place to stay, its very cheap! There was a bar below our rooms that stayed open till 6am with music and food. So after our night out we would come back here to finish the night. It's in a great location bang in the middle for all bars, food and drink. The rooms were fab, the showers were really good for a hostel, powerful. You get a locker in your room too so its very safe. The staff were really helpful.
