Good I am a year seven pupil and i stayed in this hostel with my school on a weekend trip to France, seven boys got stuck in the elevator, although it was their fault as the doors wouldn't open so they panicked and pressed all the buttons. The hostel is clean, the rooms are nice and spacious, and the breakfasts are nice. I would go there again!

Horrid i stayed on a school trip and the only thing good about the hostel was the chips. the rooms were rundown and the lights would go off when you walk down the stairs.

I had the pleasure of residing at this hostel during the summer and I have to say I was impressed. It was as good a hostel as I have stayed ever in, and I have been in more than a few. It was very clean,central, friendly, with a cozy little bar and a friendly barmaid who was kind enough to help me with my French. Merci beaucoup, au revoir.

We recently stayed in this hostel on a school trip. I thought it was a great hostel, although the facilities were a bit dated. The food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. I would definitely go back there in the future.

Having stayed in many hostels in my travels around Europe, I can honestly say that YHA Boulogne is one of the best I've stayed in. Great rooms, friendly staff, delicious food, superb location and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. I'll be back next year!!

Upon entering the hostel I was filled with sudden fear; it seemed more like a hotel than hostel, and I figured the cost would reflect that. I was pleasantly surprised to find that that was not the case, and I quickly became friends with the generous staff! The daily dinner is enough to keep you more than happy. Wash it down with some of the easily accessible local wine and you're golden. I must say that as far as cleanliness, happiness and any other ness's go, YHA Boulogne kicks arse any day of the week!
