Great place. Friendly staff. Incredible value. Don't expect the Ritz though. Description said desk, but there wasn't one in the room. Not a major issue as plenty workspace on common area.

Really nice and stylish place. A double room is small but cozy, shared bathroom was clean and always available. We loved the common room and central location. Another plus is that the reception is open 24/7

Staff very friendly and accommodating, reception was open 24/7 which was perfect for us. Room was very cute and simply had everything we could need. Very near bus stops that go to and from Bristol Airport regularly. In the perfect location for us, plenty of activities and bars very nearby.

Loved how friendly the staff were, they were extremely accommodating. Really easy to chat to, and I was so surprised just how much they were willing to go the extra mile, even though I didn't ask for much. The fusbal table was a great little addition I wasn't expecting In the lounge area. The fact that you can take advantage of everything the building has to offer, the bowling, beer and food were great. The 6 of us all loved the calzones at the Lanes. The contained showers were awesome, consistent good temperature and powerful. Location is perfect, smack bang in the centre of Bristol.

All hostels in Bath

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 right in the city centre. Super friendly staff and guests. I stayed in a private twin room, with a sink, wardrobe and drawers. The bed was basic but comfy, and the room was toasty warm. I felt safe as a single woman (it was my first time staying in a hostel so I hadn't been sure what to expect).
