Onefam Hostels

Onefam Hostels is a European hostel chain and very popular with solo travellers in particular. They have won numerous awards over the years, including 2nd Best Hostel Chain in the World 2019.

Onefam Hostels properties can be found in London, Madrid, Porto, Seville, Barcelona, Prague, and Budapest. Spread over these popular cities are a total of 14 hostels.

Update: The Hostel One Chain did a big rebranding in 2023. It is now called Onefam Hostels.

Let's hear what the Onefam Hostels team has to say:

"What sets us apart from other hostels, is that we offer an incredibly social atmosphere. Our staff are travellers just like you, but we aren’t just here to party. We’ll cook you dinner, take you on daytime adventures, and share our expert knowledge of the city."

Let's take a look at the perks of staying at one of these hostels:

Organised activities
Daily tours run by staff
Fully equipped kitchen open 24/7
3 common areas
Central location

The above amenities can be found at every single hostel of Onefam Hostels.

Having three common areas means there's one to suit every mood: party, work and relax.

Onefam Hostels also offers a long-term accommodation option where you stay longer and pay less. Whether you're a student, digital nomad, expat or remote worker, this is a great option.

Note: Long-term stay does not require a deposit nor do you have to pay a booking fee.

Who stays at Onefam Hostels?

There's a reason that Onefam Hostels use the tag line "Best hostel for solo travellers."

The organised activities, which are the same in each hostel, really encourage solo travellers to get together, mingle and share good times.

Join in family dinners, nightly pub crawls and daily walking tours – they're all FREE!

Most of the hostels offer only shared dorms, including female-only, with sizes varying between 4–8 beds. Some Onefam Hostels properties also offer twin and double private rooms, so you can expect to see the odd couple staying here.
