The rooms were big, it was a 10 room mixed bedroom but still big enough to not feel overcrowded. The room have big lockers that works with your room key so thats a big plus. The bathrooms were clean. The place has a nice garden where one day i could telework without any problems with good internet coverage. Very nice place, the location is just 5 minutes walking from westbanhof station and from the start of mariahillstrase. Keep up the good work, im for sure coming back!

It is the best hostel I’ve ever been to. The first thing that impressed me is a kitchen area - it’s similar to coworking zone, where you can also cook food and have some fun. I am very picky to any hostel where i stay but this one definitely gets 10/10 for cleanliness, brightness, comfort, kindness & home vibes. i truly enjoyed my stay here and hardly with impatience were waiting for evening time to get back to my room & bed :) recommended!!

I stayed at A&T Hostel in Vienna for 4 days, and it was a great experience overall. The hostel is much bigger than I expected, and everything was really clean. I stayed in a female-only room with 4 beds, 2 tables, 2 chairs, and 4 lockers. You can rent a lock for the locker with a €10 deposit, which you get back at checkout. I also had a private bathroom, which was clean. I arrived late at night, around 11 PM, and the staff was still standby to help me check in, which I really appreciated. They were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. There’s also a luggage room if you need to store your bags, which was handy. The lobby is nice and big, a good spot to relax if you’re not out exploring, they offer Coffee & vending machine in the Lobby. They also have an elevator, which was great since I had some heavy luggage. Breakfast was pretty good too—plenty of options to start the day. The location is really convenient. From Wien Meidling Station, you just take the 7A bus, and it drops you about 50 meters from the hostel. If you’re heading somewhere else, the 7A and 66A bus stop is only about 100 meters away, and you can switch to the U-train to get to most places in Vienna. Plus, there are convenience stores just 50 meters away, which made it easy to grab snacks or anything else I needed. Overall, this hostel is clean, comfortable, and well-located, with everything you need for a smooth stay. I’d definitely recommend it and would stay here again!

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.

    Great student accommodation, certainly beats a hostel. Clean, with really friendly staff. Centrally located with great restaurants and bars in the area. If you just need a cheap, clean and safe somewhere to put your head down, this is well worth a look

    The hostel was easy to get to from the metro station, there are also trams nearby. Locality seems quite safe, and active even after hours of the day. The hostel is well kept, even the common area, you may even plug in and work peacefully if your on a working holiday, for the digital nomads 😀. The breakfast was a big spread with many options and quality. Overall, I highly recommend if you are looking for a good yet budget friendly accommodation.

    Best hostel I've stayed at yet. Comfortable spacious rooms (with chairs!) and the nightly pay-what-you-can dinner made it super easy to meet other travellers. Met a lot of cool people to explore the city with, and was able to fall asleep at 10pm no problem if I wanted to. If you stay anywhere else in Vienna you're a fool. And cheap beer!

    One of the best hostels I've ever been to but also one of the cheapest as well so it's a fantastic value for money! The staff was very kind and helpful. The rooms are clean, big and have a separate bathroom and toilet which makes things so much easier! The hostel also has a bar that works during the night, where you can also play pool, beer-pong etc. so it's a great place to meet new people as well.

    Great location close to a lot of cool bars and restaurants. Such a cozy lobby where it was nice to hang out both alone and with friends. The hostel bar was AMAZING and I ended up staying there a lot of the nights instead of going out. Great place to meet new people!! Also the people at the reception were so nice and welcoming! Great beds and free lockers. Absolutely the best hostel I've ever been to.
