Hostels in Italy

We spent 6 fabulous nights at this very welcoming site in our Motorhome with wonderful views over Sorrento and Mt Vesuvious. What makes this site are the great facilities and friendly staff who ensure your stay wants for nothing.

Great stay- basic accommodation but clean. Shuttle bus was a big bonus. Supermarket had all the basics. Reception very helpful as well as the night porter. Pity the beach didn’t open till late one day when we wanted to go down to the cliffs.

Hannah and Rob 2nd - 4th October 2025. I cannot describe how wonderful our stay was at Santa Fortunata. The safari tent was so beautiful and overlooking the sea through the olive trees. It is comfortable even if you are staying in colder temperatures because there is good heating. The shower is the best shower we ever had in our lives. SO powerful. Everything was perfect. We stayed in October so...

We stayed in a Safari Tent. It's a 15-minute walk uphill to reception. Keep in mind that there's only one electrical outlet inside, the other outside. Towels are not free, so it's best to bring your own. There were strong winds for two days, and our tent shook so much that even the keys fell off the shelf and the frame boards creaked. It was impossible to sleep, and the tent was very cold. Unfortunately...

What a lovely place. Well worth a stay. Our accommodation was clean and tidy. The views are amazing. The staff are friendly and helpful and speak very good English. Beware you are on a mountain so there is lots of steps and steep hills. The wall to the sea is a trek but nice when you get down there. Beware of the rocks in the sea. There is buggies to take you around but not to the sea. There is a bus...

The property and our tent had an excellent location with a spectacular view. The bathrooms were clean, though there was no soap in the women's restroom. Unfortunately, when we arrived at 3 PM (the official check-in time), our tent wasn't ready yet. We had to wait for them to clean it, but it seemed like nothing was cleaned except for the bed being made. The fan was covered in dust, and every time it...

Clean hostel with great vibe and just a walk away from the train and bus station

The environment here is fantastic, and what's even better is how convenient the transportation is. You can walk to the train station in under ten minutes. The front desk is staffed 24/7. There are Chinese restaurants nearby, and the hostel also has a kitchen, so no need to worry about satisfying your Chinese palate.

Great location, affordable, and convenient! Plus, there are so many good restaurants nearby.

This hostel is quite large, offering plenty of space for activities, but the signage isn't very clear, and I couldn't find any information detailing the layout of different areas. The bedside lamp in my bunk was broken, and there was no privacy curtain. The kitchen area was very messy, and the cups on the shelves in the cupboards were inexplicably dirty. They don't provide water or coffee, nor do they...

Hotel location is very near to the Venice Mestre！ surprisingly the room is quiet big. We didn’t take the breakfast, we prepare our own. Free store luggage but BRING YOUR OWN LOCK! Or go outside Chinese store can buy it.

The hostel is very clean and offers mixed-gender rooms. The location is central, right next to the train station, making it perfect for solo travelers.

The location is absolutely impeccable, very easy to get from pretty much anywhere - and just a 20 minute walk from Milano Central which lets you access the airports easily. I chose a cabin in a shared room and the cabin was extremely spacious with charging ports and even a small screen inside. I have absolutely no complaints on the size of the rooms either. The staff are very sweet and I could not...

Overall, it's pretty good. It's about a 7-8 minute walk to the subway station, and it's quite clean and tidy. However, there's no hot water in the private bathroom, so you have to go to the public showers on the 1st floor to bathe, and the water isn't very hot there either. There's a kitchen and lockers on the 1st floor, and you can cook your own food in the kitchen. The common lounge area is also...

The staff was nice, but the building is visibly old. The lights are off after 11 PM, and the mirror light in the room was broken, so I had to use the shared bathroom on the floor, which wasn't very clean and lacked hooks to hang clothes. Worst of all, a man randomly walked into our all-female dorm just to use the toilet.

Pretty expensive compared to the room size. I've requested lower bed in advance but I got the upper but they fixed for me at the end. If you have a heavy luggage and they get you the upper bed you have to lift your luggage up to put in the storage close to your bed. Good for very short stays and good location.

Of all hostels I have stayed, Ostelzzz in Milan is for sure the best one. With that amount of money, it already includes the breakfast, the check in procedures is so easy, friendly staffs, and most important thing is the storage fee is so cheap, only 2 euros for a day I will come back and stay at this hostel if I come to Milan

The room's cleanliness was decent, and the facilities weren't particularly new. The free breakfast was a plus, though there wasn't much variety and the taste was just okay – but hey, it's free, what more can you ask for? Overall, it was alright.

great hostel very close to milan centre

The service is excellent. The cleanliness is perfect. The location is super, right in the center. Easy to find. Breakfast included: coffee and croissant. 3.50€ city equivalent extra.

Great location and friendly staff

nice place, good staff i would recommend to all trip.com members

nice place, good staff i would recommend to all trip.com members

Friendly staff and nice and safe location! Good internet access most of time. Somehow it's quite noisy if the neighborhood kept chatting in the corridor. Anyway it was a nice and reasonable price hostel.

The location is within walking distance from the train and bus station as well as from the historical centre. It felt safe even when walking around past midnight. I stayed for a week in a ensuite 6-bed mixed room. It was clean, big enough with comfortable beds, one shower with a sink and one toilet with a sink. Toiletries as well as a towel were provided. You can lend a hair dryer at a reception. There...

First Hostel Plus truly feels like a box of pleasant surprises. The location is excellent just minutes from the historic center, surrounded by museums, the university, restaurants, the hospital, and with easy access to public transport. Everything is convenient and stress-free. From the moment you enter, you feel welcomed. The front desk team is attentive and professional, and the hospitality throughout...

PLUS Florence hostel helped me a lot to enjoy my stay in the city :) The location was easy to find, the room was clean and pretty, and the lifts were convenient and big enough to move the luggages upstairs. You can see the wide views of Florence, even the Duomo in the terrace at the top level. Also, the staffs were super friendly and kind. Like Hedi, for instance, who worked at the bar and the restaurant...

Simple check-in and public facilitiesㅡ Kitchen. Laundry. Swimming pool and sauna was excellent for cost-effectiveness, and everything was fun and good. The location was great too~^^ But one Chinese roommate coughed all night, possibly due to a cold, so the rest of my roommates barely got any sleep. 😪

The beds in the room are not assigned, it was selected by first come first serve. In my opinion the stairs to the upper bunk bed is quite dangerous as there’s lesser things to hold on to with both hands and foot, have to pay more attention when going down

​Excellent hostel located just 10 mins walk from train station. ​I stayed in a private room with friends in November and everything was great. The hostel has amazing common areas, including a game room, a sauna, and a vending machine area with electric hobs if you prefer to cook your own meals. The cleaning was great. ​Even though we visited in autumn, we could still enjoy the swimming pool because...

Great economy accommodation. well ran and very clean. Amazing location in the busy area so traffic noise an issue but windows are good. Well recommended.

Hostel Agata is centrally located; plenty of options as to shopping, restaurants and transportation. Agata, the owner, is a nice and welcoming person. My place whenever I go back to Palermo.

On the arrival day, the owner never sent me a message on how or where to check in. Luckily, i am smart enough to google and ask people on the building. Finally, I managed to find my way to the unit after hours of finding it. The lady owner didn't bother to apologise that they didn't send any message, but well, just one night, so i didn't bother it much.

Good place on a budget. Don´t expect too much

What a great team of this place of residence, the center of Palermo, we were left with such good warm emotions, clean, every day cleaning, and breakfasts are simply delicious, you will not regret, Grazie🫶❤️❤️🔥who will say hello 🫂

The location is great. Rooms along the main street can be affected by the sound of cars, so I think they are suitable for people who are confident in their sleep.

Hostel Archi Rossi was the best hostel I've ever stayed in. The staff was really nice and I liked that there was free coffee :) the location is really nice.

Snug and quiet hostel in Florence. If you are looking for a social hostel, this is not the place for you. This is a calm hostel 5 minute walk from train station. The shared dorm was massive with many beds, the cafe area is self serve with unlimited warm drinks and orange juice as well. For me, the main highlight of this place is the outdoor seating area, you can sit here with a warm drink and tea and...

Perfect location! They clean everything every day and they are very save, you have to show your key before you can come in! Only downside is that it has very thin walls so there is sound everywhere and the toilet seat was sort of broken.

The place is clean, nicely decorated and good attention from Enricco. Has free coffee machine and juices. Close to the train station of Florence. The lockers space are so good and better than other hostels I've stayed. The bed was really comfortable. I wish it only had that extra privacy with like curtains on the bed. But nothing to lessen the value of the place.

Very lovely place located just 15 min from the main center of Florence. The rooms were big and the bed comfortable. Very affordable prices and kind workers. Free coffee/tea and juice all day. Big kitchen with cutlery, plates, bowls, etc. No stove, only microwaves, free hot water and toaster. The garden is large and is perfect for sipping coffee in the morning. Very safe for solo female traveler. I...

From the very moment we walked into the hostel, we were greeted with a smile and throughout our stay the staff were incredibly helpful and patient. The hostel is very clean and their facilities are always kept in pristine condition, with common areas like bathrooms stocked up with hand soap/toilet roll etc. They helped us to book a private taxi to the airport the night before our departure, easing...

This hostel completely exceeded my expectations for its price point. It's located in a monastery, which you can actually visit, and they offer a free breakfast of coffee and a croissant. The location is super convenient, close to both the train station and major attractions, making it perfect for backpackers like me. The only downside is that the soundproofing in the rooms isn't great.

Location good, but no curtains for the bed, need to leave your key everytime you leave the hostel, lack of commen area only kitchen and a outdoor garden. If you look for a social hostel choose another

Comfortable stay with breakfast provided. Overall quite good experience

During summer, there's no air conditioning in the room, so it can get quite hot.

The staff was friendly and there was no shortage of toilets or showers. It was a special experience to sleep in an old building.

The location is perfect 👍🏻 very close to all the beautiful places in the historic part of the city! Please make sure that you check in online prior arrival to avoid extra charges. It’s easy and takes around 2-3 minutes of your time. The front desk staff speaks English very well. The rooms are spacious with 2 fans for comfortable sleep at night and huge lockers to store your belongings securely (the...

Very nice place, i was here for 2 weeks and there was no problem with neighbours, service and staff. The room was clean and neighbours were nice, the staff is very kind and pleasure for any request or propose. Firstly watching other reviews i was dissatisfied but then realised that there is nothing wrong with this place.

The staff here were great, fun and friendly. There bar was a nice addition and good way to meet people. However i dont reccomend as a solo travellor, it doesn't feel the safest - no locks on doors. Bathrooms were seriously dirty, showers were just a trickle. That said, it is a cheap hostel and if your just wanting the absolute basics, it's fine.

Koala Hostel offered a somewhat mixed experience. The staff were generally friendly, though one person made the check-in process a bit awkward by being overly meticulous with my passport. The vibe wasn’t the usual backpacker energy I expected, many guests seemed to be long-term residents, which made the social atmosphere a little strange. While there was a nice common area with a piano, guitar, and...

A very clean and cosy hostel in a central location! Difficult to find at first but staff here are good and are very knowledgeable of Milan. Bathrooms are separate to rooms with small shower cubicles but cleanliness and quality is fine. Toilets are also seperate, in a completely different location to showers, but also very clean. Towels a charged at €2 each. Beds are also of good quality with power...

My stay at this hostel was great, it had everything I needed the staff was very friendly, the rooms are very clean, it has hot water and they provide breakfast every morning it might not be the best breakfast but you only getting what you paid for. Enjoy your stay at Milani

Cute hostel, had everything we needed really. The main reason for the 5 stars is because of the staff. Very friendly people who were willing to give advice and show us cool spots to hang out :) Location is also great since it's 5 minutes from the metro and the nearest supermarket

I stayed here just for a few hours between transits. This place, although not so fancy, did a perfect job for that purpose with friendly staff and all basic necessities you would expect from a hostel at this price range. Highly recommended for budget travellers or those who stay only for a while in Milan.

Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

If you’re wondering why this place has got such a low rating, I’m wondering too. I stayed one night here for transit and this hostel is huge as though they transformed a school complex into a hostel. My room was on the 3rd floor and things there are nicely renovated. The mattress and duvet cover they offer you are odourless, not the cleanest but acceptable. Inside the room everything seem decent. They...

Everything was good for me. The only small problem is the lack of kitchen appliances.

Very crowded hotel and a bit overpriced for a hostel. The kitchen facilities are limited, with only a microwave and no plates or cutlery. In my room, the toilets were not clean. On the day of my arrival, the Milan police were at the reception because of an incident involving a traveler, which may raise some security concerns. Positive point: convenient location.

As per look for Hostel type accommodation, Ostello Milano is a nice choice to stay...

Great place with amazing staff. Spacious rooms, good atmosphere to make friends. You can feel at home here. Definitely recommend! Would book here again.

Lobby Collective 8/10 +Clothesline on the terrace, huge garden in front and back (it was too hot when I was there, but nice with cooler temperatures). +They offer a lot of suggestions, maps for local public transport and many things you can rent (bike, car, tent, beach umbrella...) -Kitchen only opens at 7am, and you are not allowed to use it (you can only get food from fridge or drawers but not...

Good hostel in Lecce, clean, rooms with AC (!!), and outside of the busy center, but close enough of a walk (15 minutes). Alessio was very kind and even helped care for a wound on my foot when I needed a bandaid 😆. Also it’s close to a really good pizza spot and coffee/pastry shop!

Originally booked 2 nights but I liked it here so much that I doubled down and added another 2 nights. Location: About a 30 minute walk to the train station or old town, it’s perfect for a solo traveler like myself that doesn’t mind walking a bit further from the tourist crowd. Grocery store across the street and pizzeria/bakery/restaurants within a few blocks. Staff: The best part of this hostel...

It was the second hostel we stayed in in Lecce and our second hostel experience in our lives. •Cika&Alessio, meraviglioso😁You will meet them at reception. •All the facilities are carefully designed, almost no detail was left out. There was style everywhere. The instructions were very clear and precise. •The facility is cleaned by volunteers and is extremely sufficient •Especially the backyard lighting...

The staff were friendly and helpful and it was a good breakfast for €5

What a great little place with amazing friendly staff. It was a great for a quick one night stop. And it was close to all my needs as it’s very central and more than one big supermarket around. Everyone was super helpful from the front desk to the lady at breakfast room. Specially thankful to the Brazilian guy who had one of the best welcome smiles I have seen. Thank you for your effort.

The staff and food are the best , 5 stars. Everyone is so welcoming , you feel like home, always looking out for your best interest. We even stayed longer than planned ♡

The hostel is pretty and comftrable. The employe was vwry kind.

Couple minutes walk to the beautiful promenade, nice rooftop terrace, secured parking, good value for money

Very good Hostel, very friendly staff, breakfast was more then ok.

Splendid stay and hospitality. Also very family minded. You can enjoy a stunning view on the rooftop. Helpfull and friendly staff!

Not bad, quite price effective if you are just considering a short stay and place to sleep 

Good hostel for a trip to Milan. It's only two metro stops from Milan Central Station.

I chose this place because the location and price were perfect for me. It was great! If you're not a neat freak, I think it's a fantastic room.

A very central hostel, 20min walk to the central station and 20 min walk to the dueomo, quiet area, where it is nice to have a walk, and discover the streets. Nice park nearby. The place is decent, and nice, had a bed in a 2 person dorm which is good and comfortable, and the big bathroom is in side the room. The employees are nice and friendly. Very good experience.

The place is quite good and near the Main station

Havent tried their breakfast but the location is okay at least they have options for female only rooms

Extremely clean and comfortable rooms with 3 single beds and an en-suite bathroom. Every hostel experience depends on who you get roomed with but having such lovely rooms helps! Perfect location for getting to the station, or if you don’t mind a bit of a walk into the centre.

Stayed in a double room.everything was in perfect order .Hostel located very close to main train station c.10 minutes walk.Very clean and good value.

Probably the best hostel I've stayed at - modern with single beds, great bathroom, and immaculately clean. Plus the restaurant downstairs is fantastic and offers 10% off for guests.

What's not to love from this hostel? It is really clean, the dormitory doesn't feel like a dormitory at all. Don't think that it will use the bunk bed that moves when the bunk mate is moving, nope. It just feels like sleep in a 3 star hotel's triple room but with strangers. I got my own bed, with an ensuite bathroom. A lit bit drawback is the resepsionist not available 24hr, so you have to contact...

Convenient location, close to the city center. Gated area, so we felt safe even when no one was there, which was from afternoon to morning. We could easily enter the territory with the room card. Before check-in, a kind employee accepted our bags for storage, which she even brought to the room itself. The room was in good condition, quite fresh but a little dusty. The shower room was dirty and moldy...

Booked a hostel and got a far superior experience to some of the hotels I’ve stayed before!! Our room was large, clean with air conditioning, lovely private bathroom with shower, towels and basics. Overlooking a comper parking area, a short walk to Verona city centre, it was delightful and we would absolutely stay again!!!

The hotel is old and a bit far from central, but the bus stop is near the hotel

It’s not exactly in city centre but it’s 10 minutes bus ride away. No curtains on the bunk beds and towels are provided. Had to share a plug with the bed above me, hope there’s individual plugs for each bunk beds.

The room was clean and comfortable, with good service. They were very accommodating and allowed us to store our luggage both before check-in and after check-out, which was really convenient. Overall, a pleasant stay in Florence

slightly far from city centre but good location right next to supermaket! aircon was strong and the room was very clean!

It is a really nice accommodation with good location and adorable interior design.

The location is about 20-30mins to city center by taking bus. Good thing is the bus stop near to the hostel. There’s no free water and at least there are vending machines. Hair dryer is not powerful enough.

The only reason it's not a 1/5 is because of the price and location. You get what you pay for, I guess. Not sure if it was just bad luck, but my room didn't have any hot water lol so um yea have fun showering at 2am. There is ZERO noise isolation from outside so the room is insanely noisy. No towel. The bunkbed's steps are shaky and noisy.

1 star for the location near Termini 2nd star: cheap, the receptionist was friendly 3 star: private bathroom, common room and a microwave. deductions: no warm water. I addressed the issue and someone was sent to fix it but it only lasted a day. I shower twice a day when I spend most of the day walking. stayed a few days and only two showers were warm. the rest was lukewarm at best. I think there was...

There's no hot water, and the kettle in the kitchen is too dirty to use.

There's no kitchen area and they need to turn on the heating.

It's fine. Maybe they should have sheets because the comforter only irritated me. It's also not good not having 24-hour reception, since if there's an issue, you can't call, make a complaint, or request a room change.

The bed is quite small, air conditioner isnt working well, kind of hot. Seperare bathroom in your room. The most stupid thing is there is a late check in fees even though you have contacted them through directly phone call.

We were accidentally ending up staying here for a night. The service is outragously good! We had some puppy friends in the morning. Bathrooms were acceptable (for average people it was clean, I am a professional, so I see details). The location has no public servixe access which is quite a lack for me. I can imagine it is a perfect stay for backpacker wonderers. I loved the decoration and the soul...

Cheers to y all!! Especially to Gabriel and Rita, we only had one night there but really felt at home with everyone there and had the best of times. Beds are comfy, good showers and a absolutely amazing staff!! We recommend 100%! Thanks again, we ll be back one day for sure! Gerome e Fortuna

Very convenient and good stay option with garden. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Beach is at 5 minutes walking distance.

One of the best Sunset 5 minutes away. Great staff members and very good accomodations. Thanks so much for everything

I really enjoyed my stay here. The breakfast was delicious, and I had plenty of space in the 10 bed dorm, and my bed was very comfortable. The hostel is in an ideal location, near the beach, nature and also shops. The staff were friendly and helpful, and sold me a bus ticket back to Pisa on my day of check out. If you are coming by bus from Pisa, organise yourself so that you know which bus ticket...

This upgraded hostel facility is an excellent venue for accessing the beach and local cycling trails in the area. Spacious rooms, friendly staff, a first class dining hall with professional chef and waiter, five minute walking distance to the beach, air conditioning, bicycle storage, and expansive lawn around the building are what characterize this facility. Lots of shops, restaurants, and grocery...

I liked the location, it is just perfect, city centre and 5 min walk from the train station. The price was reasonable. What I didn’t like is that the place absolutely uncomfortable to eat your meals, I don’t even mean to cook it, just warm up and have a cup of tea. There’s a microwave and a kettle on the ground floor, but there’s no shared dishes and cups, you could probably ask for plastic ones at...

A nice place to relax, good location! Professional work of the management staff, good approach to customers.

Pretty nice hostel with the great location. Modern style, cafe at the lobby, elevator, air conditioner. Stuff at the reception was great! Rooms was full. And as always available problems with uncultured roomates. Bonus: 6 person in single room and 6 different opinions about air conditioner :)

Seems to be the only big hostel around in Trieste. The location and service is absolutely fine, pretty good actually. But the rooms are a downer. 12 bed dorm with a tiny AC in one corner that definitely is not sufficient for the whole room. Tiny bathroom. The atmosphere in the hostel is a bit boring. Friday night a caraoke evening with almost no attendance (fully booked hostel), nothing on Saturday...

Staff was super nice. I only stayed one night, but found the shower situation slightly annoying (water everywhere in the bathroom after 30 seconds of showering). Unlike other comments say, they now allow you to stay in the bar without consuming anything as long as it’s not super busy, and there’s an outside area that you can be in without ordering anything

Decent for the price. Close to stations. Rooms are full, 12 people in a room. I got unlucky and had some very unpleasant and inconsiderate roommates (poor hygiene and snorers/multiple alarms that they didn’t turn off) The shower wasn’t great and bathroom was cramped. I didn’t shower there as it was a single night and I just needed a bed. Storage is spacious. Beds have poor privacy. There are big...

I had a really nice stay at this hostel. The volunteers and staff were very friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere was welcoming. The tour with Spyro’s was especially great, very informative and interesting, and it helped me understand the city much better. The accommodation itself was very good for the price. If you’re just looking for a comfortable place to stay with everything you need and a good...

I was able to stay at this hotel for one night. It was a lovely stay! The location is absolutely perfect. It’s a 10-minute walk from the port (and therefore the Genoa Aquarium) and also from Piazza Ferrari. The rooms were clean, and so were the beds! I highly recommend it. Thank you.

Everything was absolutely great! The hostel has an incredibly friendly and cheerful staff — everyone smiles, helps with any question, and speaks good English. Breakfast is free and includes cereal with milk and toasts. There are three bathrooms with showers. The kitchen is very well equipped — you can cook anything you want! There are all kinds of utensils: spatulas, spoons, forks, knives, cutting...

What a great hostel to stay at - especially for younger people! Very nicely located, rooms were clean, free breakfast and the atmosphere was just so nice! Met great people there that I hung out with during my stay. An unforgettable experience:) definitely recommend it for any solo traveler!

Great stay at Manena Hostel! I stayed at Manena Hostel and had a really good experience. The place was very clean and well-kept—especially appreciated how they dedicate time between 11:00 AM and 1:30 PM for cleaning, which keeps everything fresh. The rooms had fans, which helped a lot in the summer heat. Just note: the lockers need a small padlock, but you can easily get one at reception with a €...

The staff is wonderful, polite, friendly, and very kind. Everything is very clean, and the beds are comfortable. They speak several languages ​​and are very good at explaining everything, even giving you information about Genoa. 100% recommended. I really enjoyed the experience.
