The staff are very engaged with the guests and go above and beyond to make sure they have a good time. They're organising activities almost every day, invite guests to go out with them and even sometimes make guests free pancakes! One of the best experiences (if not the best) in a hostel I had in 15+ years of on and off backpacking.

It is the best hostel I have ever stayed at. It is located on the hill and I was walking there from the bus station (about 25 min on foot) so I could see the great view of Bath. The location is very quiet, only birds singing🥰 The hostel has got a beautiful yard with tables and benches where you can have rest or lunch in the shade of big trees. The rooms and bedding are very clean. I had a bed in a female dormitory, we had a bathroom in our room (with a toilet and a shower) and one more separate toilet also in our room so it's quite comfortable for girls! There is also a big comfortable kitchen with fridges and all things you need for cooking. No deposit fees!!! You pay for your staying there when you arrive.

A great hostal at an amazing location. Most sights were a walkable distance from this place and the coach station is quite literally around the corner. I felt safe during my stay and found everything very clean. The bathrooms, even though there were only two, were especially well-cleaned.

As an avid traveler, I have had the pleasure of staying in numerous hotels around the world. However, my recent stay at Harbourside Hostel was an experience that truly stood out from my expectations. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming atmosphere that immediately made me feel at home. The staff at Harbourside Hostel were exceptional in every way, especially Adhar (sorry if my spelling is incorrect). The facilities at Harbourside Hostel were immaculate and well-maintained. The dormitories were spacious and thoughtfully designed, with comfortable beds, individual lockers, and ample charging points. Moreover, the location of the hostel was superb. Situated in the heart of Bristol city, it offered convenient access to all the major attractions, public transportation, and an array of local restaurants, bars, and shops.

I loved every bit! The rooms were so clean and the bathrooms were so hygienic. I also grew quite fond of the staff in my few short days at the hostel. I wasn’t there long but boy did I have fun! Would strongly recommend this hostel to anyone thinking of a budget friendly trip to 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).
