First of all thank to Volunteer Greek friend Elizabeth. The hostel was great in terms of overall conditions. I loved that there is food always you can buy which is not expensive at all. Moreover the best thing about hotel is, volunteers are great people and you always socialize with them or other people. They organize such sphere.

I was worried about having 6 people in the room, but it wasn't a problem at all. Overall, excellent hostel experience, great value for money.

Hostel Old Town is located in the center of Bratislava, directly above the Bratislava Castle. It offers modern air-conditioned rooms with free Wi-Fi internet connection. The hostel is atypical in its design, it offers privacy and a quiet environment as it does not have external windows, the windows are directed to the inner block, where there is a living tree.

Wow! This is a very cool, clean and modern hostel. It is more like a hotel than a hostel really, we loved the rooms which we had to ourselves and the seperate bathrooms. We had two rooms on the bottom floor and they had a toilet and two showers each, titled with the roomnumber. There are very cozy commonrooms and „chill-lounges“. It is very well designed and we loved everything about it. The location is good aswell.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location in the center of town, but just outside of the too touristy area. Lots of common areas, luggage storage, kitchen. Good value, true European youth hostel, and free drink from the bar included.

    Since it´s youth hostel you can expect any luxus :D I just stayed one night as I had a morning flight and it was alright. Bathrooms and toilets were clean enough and even though a lot of guests did go to a house party that night, the halls were surprisingly quiet. Overall good place for young people and backpackers as it´s close to the center and also have good public transport connections to the train or bus station.

    This hostel was super clean and comfortable - warm and cosy, with comfortable beds, clean towels included, and super clean facilities - possibly the cleanest hostel bathrooms I've ever seen. The only mess I saw was in the kitchen, and left by other guests, and was cleaned by the hostel. Would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat. Great location, both the hostel itself and the area felt very safe.

    Very comfortable place to stay. Really a lot of showers and toilets on the floor, which is often the biggest problem in this kind of hostel. Clean, safe, calm place, I can recommend to everyone who looks for cheap accommodation but not "party" or "home" atmosphere. It's rather a place where you can rest after long day and have some privacy even when you sleep in a dormitory
