Harbour House International Tourist Hostel in Sligo … This hostel was incredibly awesome. After traveling around Ireland and staying in various hostels, Harbour House was a sight for sore eyes, if you will, and the best hostel I stayed at during the trip. The staff were attentive and very helpful, willing to answer any questions I may have had. Even though it is a little ways from the city center, it was fun exploring the town Sligo when I walked to town. I highly recommend this location and plan on visiting again!
Strandhill Lodge & Holiday Hostel in Strandhill … Excellent stay, very friendly staff running the hostel, very clean. Nice hot showers in the morning, and only one hundred metres walk to the beach. Two great pubs over the road! Will be back for sure!
Celtic Farm Hostel in Grange … We visited this hostel whilst cycling on our way to Sligo Town last June and stayed for four days. It was so good we never went to Sligo town. The owner is a very nice chap who can tell you everything about the area. There was always hot water available, and a warm fire to come home to every night. It's about 1 1/2 miles from town, but there are loads of wonderful walks in the area, especially around the Dartry Mountains.
Eden Hill Holiday Hostel in Sligo … Eden Hill is the best place we have ever been to and we hope to plan many more trips there. Glennis and Kevin the owners are the most friendliest, laid back couple you could ever wish to stay with! Eden Hill is a very affordable place to stay and you are so relaxed there you feel as though you're at your own home! Sligo is wonderful, there are so many different things to do there and many different clubs and bars to visit, as we found out when we visited! Everyone you fall into conversation with is so friendly and makes you feel welcome! I would highly recommend a visit to sligo and a stay at Eden Hill Holiday Hostel. You will never regret or forget it!
The Railway Hostel in Sligo … From the outside, this may appear to look like an ordinary hostel but from the inside, it portrays the feel of a historic tower with the winding corridors and spiral staircases.This aged atmosphere is brilliantly contrasted by the newly renovated rooms. These rooms are clean, modern and more than appropriately equipped with beds, tables, bedside lamps, a TV with cable, bedside tables, coat hangers, and a rack over the radiators (which we guessed was for drying clothes). The bathrooms had clean showers, toilets, and even an anti-slam toilet seat (this fascinated me). There was a sitting/common room which had tea, sugar, a kettle, a microwave, a fridge, books, newspapers, acoustic and Spanish guitars, and board games. As for the host of the house, he was exceptionally nice, helpful, and friendly. He really made sure that our stay in the hostel was as comfortable as possible and he was very informed of the current events happening around the town. He suggested different activities that…
The Railway Hostel in Sligo … It seems that it is still run that way in March 2009. Very friendly and helpful staff, for 16 euros the night I could do without a cooker and even if there were two microwaves. It surprised me that there was shampoo and toothpaste in the toilets. The only disadvantage we faced was the lack of people, but that has nothing to do with the hostel itself given the fact that it was low season, some other time the common room would have been more appreciated. I could recommend this hostel to anyone!
The White House Hostel in Sligo … I was really surprised about this hostel. From the outside it doesn't look that nice. but it is clean, the staff is friendly. I shared a six-bedroom with girls only. we had a new bathroom. the kitchen and the living room are not that new but also very clean. and the price for all that is just great. i will come back for sure!
Eden Hill Holiday Hostel in Sligo … I went here last summer and you know I'll never forget that night, because I was in Sligo. The place is nice and it was all clean, and the people were nice. Great place!!!
Strandhill Lodge & Holiday Hostel in Strandhill … We had an extremely small room but all we needed was a bed in which to sleep anyway. The kitchen was not so clean. Night revellers didn't clean up after themselves for the breakfast crew. The resident cat was a sweetie. We did meet some very nice people so that made it an enjoyable stay.
The White House Hostel in Sligo … I stayed here in the summer of 2003. It was clean and okay — great laughs in the dormitory. The staff were accessible.
Harbour House International Tourist Hostel in Sligo … The owner was nice, and the rooms were EXCELLENT — clean with en suite bathrooms, and some with TVs. But the location is just awful. It's a long walk through a dodgy industrial area away from the city center — and it's a sucky place to get lost with a 20 pound backpack. Again, though, it had the nicest rooms out of anywhere I stayed — so if the location doesn't matter much to you, go for it.
The White House Hostel in Sligo … I stayed here back in February, and it was nice and clean. Other people who were staying here were very friendly. I would recommend it to people. :0)
