I had a wonderful stay at this hostel in Abu Dhabi. The villa is spacious, with large, clean rooms that make for a comfortable stay. The staff are incredibly kind and welcoming, especially Mahmoud, who went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great, budget-friendly spot in Abu Dhabi. Would definitely stay here again!

I like the style of the place - modern but with authentic antique elements, a truly international and cheerful staff, the casual atmosphere and relaxed atmosphere, a very comfortable kitchen, a big fridge with a spacious freezer at the top of the fridge. This was my first stay in Abu Dhabi, the wizz air flight was late and i arrived in the middle of the night in A2 bus and then bus 40 from the airport. I was using Google map and everything coincided with the location given by BookingCom - which is not always the case for other countries. A very pleasant stay with very understanding people.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.
