The place exceeded my expectations. All amenities and facilities were exactly as described, and everything was spotlessly clean. It was very quiet throughout the day and night, with excellent insulation from both the weather and outside noise. On top of that, the hospitality was outstanding, as the host was always easy to reach and genuinely went out of his way to help with anything we needed.

it is a great option for a night or two. youre staying in the student halls and due to the holiday period will have the kitchen to yourself.

All hostels in Cork

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.

As soon as we arrived, everything was as it should be. Friendly staff, great location. Support already answered all my questions beforehand, as we had to make a few changes to the reservation. The breakfast was worth the price. The bar of the hostel itself should be praised the most. Every evening something happened, we met new people. We will be back!!
