Hostels in Italy

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.

This is a great and inexpensive hostel to stay at! It was super nice to have a free meal (pasta) cooked by Nonna and sit with the other travelers to eat. Reception was really nice and helpful, specifically Alex and Mimi!

We loved our stay at the hostel, it's a great base to explore Naples and you meet other young international people. Check in/out is really easy. I found the garden super nice, you can sit outside and play card games ecc. The rooms are clean and the beds comfy. Only the bathrooms would profit from some investment, like there's not always a shelf to put things on, but they were always clean. Overall...

This was my first ever visit to Napoli and my first time staying in a Hostel. It was SO lovely to stay here, as the staff were friendly and helpful. I appreciated the free dinners by Nonna, and it was a lovely environment for meeting new people. It was nice to meet some people who said they always stay here when in Napoli, as they love the atmosphere. The shuttle from the main station was also nice...

I wasn’t expecting much considering some of the other reviews here, and I don’t necessarily agree with the age limit, but ignoring those things, I think this was one of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed at. Good vibes, free meal which gets everyone together on an evening on the massive terrace, subsidised trips around Pompeii and Sorrento, shuttles to and from the station every day, and the staff...

dont listen to the people who cant read here - the age limit is shown on booking.com and you will have an incredible stay there when you are below 35 and a cool person ;) free food(!!), great garden, nice offers for trips. all you wish for.

Hygiene and smelly, but outside was pretty good, though. The host was friendly and pleasant; you can also get a lot of company.

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...

They changed my hostel when I arrived there at middle of the night. But it was still a good substitute. I stayed at borgo ripa urban travel. It was better located. Rooms have single beds and no privacy like in the other dormitories. But still their staff was friendly and overall it was satisfactory experience. Good thing was it also had Beddit and water cleaning shower for toilets.

It was a great stay there as a solo traveler. The staffs were pretty friendly. Unlike the other hostel, they don't have any access card but their rooms and washroom are all have password and they will give you the password written in a paper.

Not very good experience. The room is not very tidy, and the air in toilet is not fresh as there is no window in the toilet. The mattress is very soft and cannot support me.

Receptionist quite friendly and helpful. The bed very good to sleep😁

Everything is nice, just the room is a bit cold for me, maybe because of winter :)

Average stay and food , . Average stay and food , . Average stay and food , .

This hostel is in a perfect, quiet spot right near the metro and bus. The staff is super friendly and helped me plan my trip to Vesuvius! Free breakfast and secure lockers are a huge plus. They also host a 5€ aperitivo dinner with snacks which is a great way to meet people. The bathrooms are plentiful and clean. Just a heads-up: towels cost an extra 3€, which wasn't in the original description. Had...

Excellent hostel. Friendly staff with excellent local knowledge

Very friendly welcome and lots of communication beforehand to help us find the hostel. We stayed in their apartment. It was clean (a few ants on the floor in the tv area but they didn’t bother us) and spacious. Good value for a family of 5.

The hostel is very close to the metro and bus stations. The staff is friendly, the breakfast is good, the rooms are comfortable, and the bathrooms are clean.

The place was very clean, the free breakfast was good as well. The public areas are very nice

I like this hostel very much. The reception is very good and recommended me many routes to visit beautiful Naples. When they learned that I was going to Pompeii, the front desk also recommended routes to me. Their courtyard is the most beautiful courtyard of any hostel I have ever stayed in!

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!!!

Staff were really helpful. The atmosphere was very relaxed and quiet. This was a completely spur-of-the-moment trip, and I was very happy I made it.

A really nice place. Been there on 2 different occasions and both times have been great. Very lively! The second time I did end up in a room with a guy that snored excessively, but that's not the hostels fault.

Super nice staff, they gave us 6 bedroom dorm for two people (45€). Bike friendly, they let us store ours inside. Bathrooms are clean and location is good. Unfortunately, breakfast was a joke: they offer only bread and juice (but then again not too far from the rest of Italian included breakfast "colazione"). Pricey restaurant, would recommend to have dinner elsewhere.

Nice environment for a hostel. Not too noisy don't know if they is hostel policy it just well behaved people.

The pillows are not the best. At least it's quite clean and quite beautiful as structure. Food is quite decent. The staff is nice and helpful.

If you're looking for a place with a beautiful view of the city center (seriously, the view is breathtaking) and excellent service, this is an excellent choice! The staff is super friendly, the rooms are clean and well-maintained, and there's a coffee machine in the common area, which you can feel free to use during your stay. You can enjoy your coffee on the cozy terrace. The staff will make sure...

Keep in mind this is a hostel, not a hotel. Location, view, friendliness of the personnel, and cleanliness of the room was great. Actual keys, locking lockers, and electronic door combinations make this a pretty safe hotel. Good lounge with veranda and espresso machine. Prices are good too.

The check-in process was seamless. The room I stayed in was spacious, lofty, and had an unparalleled view of Cappelle Medicee and the street below. (The sounds of the street rarely made it up to the room, though.) I highly suggest this as the best hostel I stayed at in Italy. Be sure to take advantage of the free breakfast service -- but bring your own towel!

Excellent stay and great value. It’s 10min walk (max) from the train station, found easily after the row of leather stalls. The staff is super friendly but only downside and you should take note before checking in: they ONLY accept cash. We didn’t have sufficient cash (150€ worth) and had to withdraw from an ATM with high fees so just keep in mind. Free and secure baggage storage (with cctv), the...

I have to say this is one of the best hostels I've stayed. The guy at the reception was super nice and friendly. I guess it was typically of outgoing italians, totally surprising for me who stayed in Sweden for quite long. I had a separate bed, not top-bottom style beds typically for hostels. And it was an awesome experience. There were a closet, a desk, an air-con, etc. When I checked out, the...

The restaurant recommended by the front desk was great.

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...

Good enough. Clean rooms, nice personnel. Lockers are provided.

They wanted 2 euro per person for early breakfast, but at the start they said they would do it for free

New Generation Hostel Rome Center exceeded all my expectations with its clean facilities, friendly atmosphere, and central location. Special recognition goes to Andrea, whose exceptional hospitality made my stay truly memorable. I wholeheartedly recommend this hostel for anyone visiting Rome.

The staff was friendly and the location was good, but the air conditioning didn't work.

A great option for female solo travelers, according to my experience the area was safe, near to most attractions and most of the staff were nice, willing to help and friendly. I enjoyed my stay here, would recommend!

The reception is super! It is the hostel and you cannot expect the cleanliness as a hotel with this price. The toilet is ok and location is perfect, between the main station Termini and the sightseeing spots!. Love this

It is located in a convenient location only 5-10 mins from central station which is next to Garibaldi station and near the bus station. I arrived by bus from another part of Italy and took the airport bus when I left, both locations easy to walk to. Being so close to the station was convenient for day trips, eg Pompeii, Vesuvius, Herculaneum. The neighborhood is a typical city centre location with...

Good one but the location is a bit scary

The room is okay. The staff is fairly nice. It near the train station with a lot of pickpockets nearby which was quite dangerous for people who travel alone. It was a bit hard to find the hostel. The breakfast is fine. I just stay for one night and leave early in the morning, so not much to comment.

Everything was really nice except they don't have air conditioner.

Hostel was very near to central station. Just walkable to port and shopping street. Important thing is very near to the famous pizzeria michale . Room was spacious and Ac was good. Bathroom and toilets are very clean. Receptionist is very friendly they give city tourist map and explained clearly. I recommend this hostel very affordable to stay. Only concern is bathroom is having only one for a floor...

Location is fine, few minutes walk from central train station. Breakfast included which was plain but good. Nearby has a medium supermarket which able to provide what you need. The room I stayed was quite noisy even mid night. It is noted that the hostel is at the corner of the streets. Downstairs seems to be a flea market from the morning, it could be a bit messy when it's night.

For an hostel this is great, this hostel is very colourful with lots of paintings. It has a room where you can play different games. The service is good and it’s in a good location near Ercolano ruins

Charming place highly recommended the only problem is the train station is about a mile away and there are no busses but other than that it is exceptional.

Very nice and cozy place, lot's of plants everywhere, animal-friendly. Very authentic and colourful. Liked it!

Amazing experience at the Ecohostel Floreale. I stayed there a full week and did not have a single issue. The ambiance is great with people chilling on the terrace sipping great coffee. They also host great musical evening where everyone is welcomed to participate and dance alltogehter, it really makes the experience unforgettable. The whole staff is super friendly and will make you comfortable....

Amazing place, lovely staff and people and a really good location too

Fabulous time - will come back for sure. The Eco Hostal floreale is the ideal Hostel if you are looking for a laid back vacation destination. The staff is friendly and very helpful. The common areas are very well maintained and even though it has a nice backpacker / hippie vibe to it the hostel is kept extraordinarily clean. there are 4 cats living at the hostel which are very sweet and if you enjoy...

everything fair enough, recommended for single traveller

This hotel is good to stay in. Be sure to check in before 11pm, otherwise it will be very troublesome to check in. Don't expect breakfast, it's suitable for E people to chat together. Bronia is a beautiful city, I recommend you to experience it.

The staff was pleasant, the kitchen a bit unkept sometimes over night. It was overall average

Met my needs for a nearby quiet overnight stay.

It was excellent - such a friendly, professional welcome at the check-in desk and clear, compact explanations, clean, heartfully decorated rooms, just perfect… Was a joy to stay there!!

It was a very cozy place to stay. Thanks to the friendly host, I was able to learn about healthy breakfasts and various tours. Bologna is a city that doesn't have much to see compared to other cities, so I only stayed for a day, but it was a comfortable place to stay. The breakfast that was prepared with care was excellent.

really good staff, very helpful

Clean. Check in and check out was straightforward. It was hard for me to get hot water from the shower or tap. Was given 2 bed sheets and pillow case. My room had toilet paper and hairdryer but no soap no towel. There was a plug/ outlet next to every bed. My room was quiet, the area is not noisy (but depends on fellow guests too). It is 10-15 mins walk to the train station to go to Naples. It is about...

Stayed in a double room for 2 nights and a 6-person female room for 1 night. The double room is not big, but the 6-person room has more room for activities. Both beds are very comfortable, the place is clean, and the staff is very friendly. Breakfast is included, which is rich and delicious, but it's a pity that it's served a little late. If you are in a hurry to visit the attractions, you can't wait...

This is the worst youth hostel in Europe that I have ever stayed in. I don't recommend you to choose this hotel at all. First of all, the hotel is very old and unclean. The bathroom is full of rust wherever it touches stainless steel, which makes people feel dirty. The shower head sprays everywhere except on the body. Second, there are no curtains around the bed, so there is no privacy at all. The...

This is a fairly new, standard hostel. The downside is that there are no bed curtains, and there are very few places to eat nearby; you have to walk ten minutes to eat near the train station.

I stayed in a women-only dormitory. The ceiling on the bottom bunk was so low that it was a bit cramped even for a petite person like me, but it was clean. It was also nice that there was a locker in the room. However, the lock on the dormitory door was broken and you couldn't open it at all unless you got the hang of it. Everyone in the same room was having trouble with it, so we often had to knock...

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...

As female solo traveler, at first i am worried about the mixed dorm. But i can assured you at MADAMA, it is safe and sound. Front desk is very helpful! Breakfast prepared was good and decent amount. Can request front desk for water refill too. You can borrow lock / hair dryer in case you need. A short walk from Lordi TIBB metro (going uphill), Carefour nearby (1km, a good 15 minutes walk). They...

I considered that hostel is my home ,, i would thanks to the receptionist as she is friendly and humble .. if i will go to milan again,, i will stay here

The rooms are spacious. Plenty of utensils in the kitchen. Customer service is amazing and friendly.

I had a great stay at Madama Hostel & Bistrot during the Olympic Games. The hostel has good facilities, creative decoration and nice vibe in common areas in the bistrot. Especially I recommend Saturday night karaoke. The staff is very welcoming. They even found and returned money that I had accidentally lost, so big thanks for that!

Had a great stay at the Madama. Met by the guy on Reception who was very helpful and spoke great English. Room 10 a double with a four poster bed and an en-suite shower room, was spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable. All the staff were friendly and professional. The Madama is clearly a hub for locals as well as travellers and it had a fantastic atmosphere which felt safe and welcoming. If you...

The only drawback is no air conditioning

Nice hostel with a small but well furnished kitchen and common area and lots of space. Large shared bathroom facilities are kept pretty clean. It is a 10 minute walk to the train station, and then a train ride away from the city center, but there is a very nice morning market daily right outside the hostel with lots of great local food and products. Fair price for what you get.

I recently stayed at this hostel and wanted to share my experience. While it had its ups and downs, overall, it provided decent value for the price. The bathrooms were old, rusty, and not well-maintained. They could definitely use some improvement and were not inviting. On the positive side, the beds were comfortable, and there were additional amenities like a pool table that added to the fun atmosphere...

Better late than never- I stayed here with my girlfriend over the summer and there were definitely problems. No where in Europe was ready for the heat, but what made this hostel shine is the staff. Special shout-out to Luigi for taking amazing care of me when the heat got the best of me. Buy this man a beer and ask him how he is doing for me!

Don't expect anything for 15€ a night. Also there are some dodgy people staying here. No AC, just fans. The toilets in the Hostel don't have seats and you can't close the doors. You will need to use the toilets outside. The showers are ok. Staff is also ok i guess. The lady was really friendly.

The best hostel!!! Chill, beautiful place, full of love, everything’s clean, the rooms are nice, cozy kitchen and terrasse. Felt at home there. All the people we’ve met were amazing. Solo traveler? Go there and you will find friends! Love on Luigi the new receptionist! ❤️❤️❤️ The Miranda family

The rooms and the bathrooms are not the fanciest, but that is not what this hostel is for. The price is very reasonable and it is perfect if you don’t want to spend a whole bunch of money. On the reception they were all extremely friendly and very helpful. You can ask for anything and they also help you with getting taxis or just navigating through the city. We could also meet with very cool people...

Amazing experience! Great rooms, staff, and people to meet! Needed to boom an extra night and did it through their website which was much easier and cheaper, highly recommend doing!

Marco is a great manager and very helpful.. Great location, super kind staff, and solid value for the price. Would definitely stay here again.

Clean, comfortable and friendly staff! Convenient location just beside the metro… I had an excellent time and met the most amazing people! I’ve stayed in a lot of hostels around Europe gotta admit Youth Station Hostel has the best atmosphere…this was my 2nd time and can’t wait to come back again

Great experience. Rooms were clean and tidy. Cheaper to book through their official website for better rate. AC works great

Overall a very pleasant stay. Great location, clean room, friendly staffs! Definitely would stay there again. Convenient location just beside the metro (30 seconds walk)…..I’ve stayed in a lot of hostels around Europe gotta admit this one has the best atmosphere. Worth every penny!

Solo Travellers come here!! This hostel was the perfect way to comfortably experience everything Rome had to offer with an EXTREMELY social atmosphere. I had a 3 night stay and it bas a blast. There is always someone interesting to talk to and always something to do. One of the best I’ve stayed in, without a doubt. The staff were incredible, the location was good, it was cleaned every single day, had...

Not bad. You need to read the instructions on how to enter. There is a curfew, but you can leave the property at any time.

Safe and okay place to stay if you are planning to go to the stadium. The staff is friendly and it is located in a safe neighborhood. Of course if you are in a shared room do not expect too much privacy.

Given that I stayed there for almost a month between December 2022 and January 2023 because I was looking for a room/bed, it was practically my home away from home. Located 1.2 km from the San Siro Stadio exit of the purple metro line, it's on the sixth floor of a building. Ideal for those with no special needs and wanting to save money. Rooms range from 2 to 8 beds, there are 3 shared bathrooms, and...

Place was good and clean. Beds were clean. Friendly and helpful staff. Only problem is not allowed to come back to hotel after 12.30am, wish it was there as we wanted to explore nightlife.

It was such a very good experience for me (and for many other which I knew from those days of my stay), the staff are so much nice and welcoming and allso helpful, besides the rooms are spacious. They respect the space of the rooms by placing enough number of single beds in a room not to make the space very crowded and uncomfortable. It worth noting that I spent almost a month there and this experience...

This place is the best, cheap, clean, friendly service I would totally recommend it, especially if you are on a shopping spree and need to save as much as possible ;-)!!

It’s very safe here with an excellent access control system. Mike is really nice, professional and highly experienced. You can always go to him if you have any issues. Highly recommended. The place is cleaned very regularly and thoroughly. The terrace has a great view — I even cooked there. Everything is convenient. Thank you!

I had an amazing stay at Hostel Castello Maggione in Rome truly a 5-star experience! From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel incredibly welcome. They were friendly, helpful, and always ready with great tips about the city. The location is perfect close to major attractions and well connected by public transport, making it super easy to explore Rome. The atmosphere in the hostel is relaxed...

It's a small inn with only a few rooms. The owner, Mike, is very kind. However, the kitchen and corners of the rooms are a bit dusty, so I think it would be even better if they could improve that.

The host was very kind and friendly, always smiling and welcoming, and always willing to help me with any questions or requests. I am very grateful. The room was cleaned daily by staff and kept tidy. The room is centrally located, making it very convenient to get to tourist attractions. I checked out at 11 am but left my luggage until 3:30 pm. This is a huge plus.

Very clean! Would be even better if the windows could be fitted with some soundproofing strips.

If the quality is not high and the budget is limited, you can live there. There is no key or access card after check-in. The landlord Mike is very nice. If you trust him and you can put large luggage in the room.
