Good but missing some hostels
Mostly great listings, but noticed a few popular hostels in Barcelona weren’t there. Still, the reviews helped me pick a nice place for my trip.

Awesome for budget travelers
I found a lovely hostel in Lisbon thanks to Hostelworld’s detailed description and lots of photos. The ability to see upcoming events at hostels helped me pick a lively place. My booking process was smooth and the cancellation policy was clearly stated, which gave me peace of mind. Only wish the app had offline mode because I lost signal a couple of times while traveling.

Good platform, small glitches
Used Hostelworld to book in Budapest and Prague. Loved the user reviews and location maps. The booking confirmation emails arrived quick, but the app crashed twice during browsing. Nothing major but a bit annoying when trying to compare prices fast. Overall still happy and will use again.

Saved me tons on my Europe trip
I planned a three-week trip all around Europe using Hostelworld and it literally saved me hundreds. The user reviews were honest and the filters made finding a place with a kitchen super easy. One time I had to change a booking last minute and customer service was really friendly and helpful. Definitely sticking with this platform for my next adventure!

Helpful but could improve filtering
The site shows loads of hostels and honest reviews which is great. I wish the filter for private rooms was a bit better though, sometimes I had to dig through mixed results. Still, I found some awesome budget places in Paris and Rome with no issues.
