All hostels in Halifax

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.

This is a 4b2b student dormitory suite, the price is not high based on the average price per bedroom, so it is good for multiple people, however, we are two people.The building is relatively modern, clean, and there is a parking space at the door.Quite and safe. The hallway is hot.

Budget stay with great location. Rooms were passable but a bit warm (was hard to cool them down at night). Recommend getting a room on any floor but the basement (windows do not open down there) and also facing the courtyard vs the road (noisy).
