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.

    Lovely atmosphere, a nicely laid out hostel in a great location for seeing all of the city. The staff were also really helpful when I lost my wallet. There was also plenty of space for me to do the work I needed to do

    The room was very small, with a bunk bed over the double and the bathroom is part of the room. However, it is well-designed and all works well. Breakfast was very good for a budget hotel

    The hostel is just in front of a metro station and close to city center. It's a 40 min walk from the main train stations. Everything looks very new and there's a good atmosphere. There's a kitchen for the guests and the bedroom are spacious: you almost feel like you have a private room. In general we felt safe both inside and also in the neighborhood of the hostel.

    Check-in is easy and the rooms are spacious! I was in a female-only bedroom and it was quite calm, despite the unavoidable noise you’ll always have in hostels (from people packing early in the morning etc). Overall, great value for money!

    The staff was amazing, on par with lux hotels I've been to. They really adapt to your needs and the vibe is just very good. They are also very patient and understanding. The common area is very comfortable (yes, it's as cool as it looks), and the bathrooms are ALWAYS clean. I mostly reccomend this hostel to young poeple travelling or for shorter stays. I expected a hostel in very bad condition (because it was literally the cheapest place in Lyon) but it was over my expectations and I would go there again.
