Find Top Hostels in Bologna

"I stayed at Combo Bologna, which is about a 15-minute walk from the Central Station. The walk isn't particularly scenic, but the hostel itself has some great pros and cons: ➕ The linens were fresh, and they provided clean towels. A huge shoutout to the receptionist, even though I booked a mixed dorm, he managed to place me in a room with only girls, which made me feel much more comfortable! ➖ While the rooms were fine, the communal kitchen area was a bit disappointing. It didn't look very clean, and the kettle was quite dirty, which was a letdown since I wanted to drink some hot water. Verdict: Great for a short stay and friendly service, but the kitchen facilities could definitely use more maintenance."

"The hostel is very clean, well located, and the staff are all very friendly. They even individually take you to your room when checking in. Breakfast is simple but complete, would recommend adding it, since it’s very accessible and convenient! Overall great experience!"

"In the academically rich city of Bologna, this hostel far exceeded my expectations. The location is superb, within walking distance to the Old Town, the Two Towers, Piazza Maggiore, and the University of Bologna. It's also very convenient for reaching the central train station, making it perfect for city sightseeing and day trips to nearby Modena and Ravenna. The dorm rooms are clean and fresh, with each bunk bed featuring a privacy curtain, individual charging socket, and ample locker space. The communal bathrooms are well-maintained with stable and abundant hot water. The staff are warm and friendly, knowledgeable about local cuisine and attractions, and patiently recommend authentic restaurants and sightseeing routes. The common areas have a relaxed and lively atmosphere, where you can meet young backpackers from all over the world and share travel stories. The communal kitchen is well-equipped for simple cooking. Overall, it's safe, comfortable, and offers outstanding value for money. Whether for a short layover or an in-depth exploration of Bologna, it's an excellent base for backpackers. I would definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Bologna. Highly recommended!"

"Very helpful staff, little bit pricey for a hostel though. You can interact with other travellers especially in the morning during breakfast. Tea and coffee is always available."

"During this holiday, I booked a very affordable youth travel. The multi-person room was very clean and refreshing. There were three shared bathrooms with showers. The check-in brother is also very responsible and helps store the luggage. I was a little worried about reading other reviews before I went, but I was surprised that my experience was very good. ～ There are pictures and the truth, call the store."
