Hostel Reviews: Top 10 Hostels by City (Updated Biweekly)
At Hostel Environments, we’re all about helping you find the best hostels wherever your travels take you.
Every two weeks, we update our Top 10 Hostels lists for cities around the world, making sure you always have the freshest recommendations based on real traveler experiences.
We base our selections on trusted data from leading hostel booking platforms like Hostelworld.com and Booking.com, ensuring you can book with confidence.
How We Choose the Top 10 Hostels
Our team reviews and updates each city’s list using a combination of:
- Guest Ratings: We prioritize hostels with consistently high scores (8.5+/10) across major booking sites.
- Location: We favor hostels located near major attractions, public transport, and city centers.
- Value for Money: Affordable pricing for the quality offered is a major factor.
- Facilities and Amenities: Things like free Wi-Fi, social spaces, lockers, and organized events can make or break a stay.
- Atmosphere: Whether you’re looking for a party hostel, a laid-back vibe, or something in between, we factor in the feel of the place based on guest reviews.
- Cleanliness and Safety: Only hostels with high marks for cleanliness and a reputation for safety make the cut.
- Unique Features: We love hostels that stand out — rooftop bars, historical buildings, quirky decor, eco-friendly setups, and more.
Our lists are meant to make it easy for you to find a hostel that fits your travel style and budget — whether you’re looking for the ultimate party hostel, a cozy hideaway, or a social spot to meet new friends.
