Excellent place to stay. It’s close enough for just walking to the city centre, yet secluded enough to be really quiet. Heating in the room is possible to adjust, so I could keep warm during my November stay. Kitchen is well equipped. Also, the staff is absolutely the best. Very lovely lady taught me few words in Romanian because I asked her for help :) I’d definitely stay here again.

Super close to the main train station and metro stations. The hostel is cheap and clean, with a friendly environment. I spent 4 nights at the hostel, and everything was as expected. The hostel has a kitchen containing several cooking tools and a relaxing outdoor area.

I stayed at this location once before about a year ago and it has changed so much since then. The vibe is a lot nicer and the facilities have been updated. The wifi worked well and they have luggage storage before and after check-in. The location is really central and accessible to bus lines and the metro. It is right around the corner from the Old Town, so if night-life is your thing, it's really accessible to that also. I stay here every time I come to Bucharest and it is definitely worth it.

The First Hostel is situated not far away of Unirea Square in a nice, modern building. The inside design is chosen with a high sense of a lover of art. The lamps give the rooms not only the right light but a charming modernism. Best shower I have ever had is there , just amazing.There are lockers for the clients and as a plus a good breakfast. I highly recommend this hostel.

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.

    The staff made me feel so welcome, and they clean the rooms every day, even in the off season. The amenities are all functional, and the beds are comfortable. This is a great location, and I felt really safe at this hostel as a solo female traveller.

    Massive shout-out to the cleaner, Paula who is so lovely and will go out her way to help you with anything despite language barriers! The hostel is very central and is decent if you need a cheap stay. There are sockets by the beds.

    Very kind staff, big bathroom, upgrade in the 8-beds dormitory and even, as I was there for the second time, the best bed ! Very quiet, as it is not a youth hostel.
