Why choose a hostel in Dublin?

It’s budget-friendly

Hostels in Dublin are a fraction of the price of hotels – as little as £40 ‌per night. Why not save on accommodation, so you can spend more on the things in Dublin that really matter — like delicious food and sightseeing? Most hostels have kitchens and laundry rooms too, so you can cook meals and wash clothes for yourself just like you do at home.

It’s flexible

In some of the larger hostels in Dublin you can book one night at very short notice, or decide to extend via the hostel’s reception desk if you’ve fallen in love with Dublin. It’s not uncommon for some backpackers to live in hostels for months.

You’ll make friends

Solo travellers opt for cheap hostels in Dublin so they can make friends to party or explore with. Spend an hour or two in a dorm room, hostel bar, or common area. You’ll get the kind of tips and advice you’d never find in a private apartment or hotel. There could also even be pub crawls, communal dinners and special organised events!

You’ll immerse yourself in Dublin

You’re never going to find out where to get the cheapest beer in town if you’re sat on your own in your hotel room. Hostels give you the chance to exchange tips and advice about Dublin with other travellers. Some hostels in Dublin even offer free guide books and walking tours, and the staff are more forthright with local tips, too.

You can kick back

Hostels are relaxed places, and often feel much more comfortable than hotels. You can kick back on the sofa all day with new friends and cook and eat your own meals communally. A true home away from home!

No! Hostels are a great option for anyone looking for a budget stay. These days, hostels in Dublin are full of digital nomads and holidaymakers of all ages.
Yes. Party hostels and youth hostels with 20-person dorms do still exist in most cities, but so do ultra-modern boutique hostels with plenty of private rooms, cosy bars, and even swimming pools. These kinds of hostels are popular with solo travellers over 30.
Since you’ll be surrounded by other likeminded travellers, hostels are always the safest (and most sociable!) places to stay in Dublin. You’ll meet new friends to go out with, share tips and advice on how to get around and find out if there are any unsafe places to avoid. Most major Dublin hostels even have female-only dorms. And if you’re worried about your belongings, don’t be — you can lock them away in a padlocked locker or safe while you’re out exploring.
Yes! Hostels in Dublin generally tend to be the most budget-friendly option in Dublin. Not only can you bag a bed for as little as £40 per night, you can cook your own food in the hostel kitchen.
