Hostel Possonium

Cheap, nice, clean, convenient
Just across from the international train station. Great place with tacky country themed rooms -- nightwish stickers and norther lights posters in the finland room. This is honestly the first hostel I had to stay in and I was more than pleasantly surprised. Showed up last minute and they managed to find me a bed, at 15 euros which was more than reasonable. The rooms were regular and the locker big enough to fit all my stuff, including a thirty-litre messenger bag, an eighty-litre pack, jackets, and food. Kitchen was well equipped and the internet was literally the fastest I had ever used anywhere, no curfew. Which was good, but a bit of a bitch when the four empty beds in my room started filling up at about 3 in the morning. Otherwise very clean, relaxing stay. They even let me come back and use the internet for a couple of hours after I had checked out, gone across the street, and realized my train was going to be a few hours late. No complaints.

Excellent place to stay!
It is close to the train station, easily reached by twenty minutes by bus from the airport. Beds are so comfortable, staff is nice, free internet, clean shower, and you absolutely have to eat a homemade pancake next door! So cheap and so good, ask the staff they will tell you where it is. After two days in Bratislava, you don't have much more to do.

Have just left after a stay of three nights. The hostel is close to the main train station and within walking distance of the old town and castle (not a short walk though). The room was clean, the bathroom spotless and large, and the free internet great as was the small backyard where you can smoke. Unfortunately the kitchen didnt have a fridge that i could see, limiting its usefulness, and there was no sign of the breakfast advertised on their brochure. But whoever's on reception will make you an espresso if you ask. Most annoying feature would be the friends of the hostel staff who come over in the evening to drink and make lots of noise in the backyard (unfortunately I had a room that backed onto the yard). Also, no maps or other tourist info for the guests. For the most part though, not a bad hostel and I'd definitely consider staying there again.

Clean and quiet hostel that's a ten-minute walk from the train station, bus loop, and tram loop. The staff were all nice, even the cleaning lady, even if some of them spoke little or no English. Even though it was a bit on the small side, the kitchen was great. Recommended.

I had a couple of the worst nights since I have been traveling in three months here, but that wasn't the hostel's fault. I had some idiot roomies who thought it was acceptable to come home at 5 in the morning and be talking loudly, laughing and joking and mucking around when others were trying to sleep (I did ask a few times if they could keep the noise down but they didn't). this went on for over an hour. I asked at reception to be moved (I wasn't the only person) and the girl was helpful and put me in another room. The reception staff were great (a couple of them have limited English but you should be ok) and helpful with tips on nightlife/eating. It is about four minutes' walk from the main station and a ten-minute walk into town. The hostel is really new and so all the furniture is nice, clean pine. The lockers are large. Nice kitchen, small common area by reception. There is free internet (and unlike most places that offer free internet, it is really fast) but the computer is by the reception so it doesn't offer a lot of privacy. The bathrooms are very clean (one or two blockage problems when I was there in the shower though). I am convinced this must be the best hostel in Slovakia. All the dorms are named after countries instead of room numbers which is cool but come on, an England dorm would have been better than a Vatican dorm.
