What makes us different from those other sites?
- Twice as many listings as any other online database. Our database is updated daily, including corrections and information from you, our visitors. All listings are provided for free.
- 38,073 brutally honest comments and reviews posted by backpackers like you. Those other booking websites let hostel owners delete negative reviews they don't like, but Hostelz.com publishes all reviews, both good and bad.
- Over 2,300 exclusive full-length professional reviews written by Hostelz.com's own paid reviewers who visit each hostel in person.
- Direct contact information for the accommodations in case you need to call them directly (imagine that!).
- This is more than just a booking site, but if you do want to book online we offer online booking at more hostels than any other website. And our system searches for available beds in all of the major booking engines to find you the best availability at the lowest price available anywhere online.
"I just wanted to say a great big thank you for providing this website. It has been an invaluable aid in choosing my hostels on my round the world trip. The reviews feature made it real. No other website does that. Excellent. Just excellent."
