Martin Zapata 155, 5500 Mendoza, Argentina –

Lock in a great price for Gorilla Hostel – rated 8.7 by recent guests!

to get started.

Nice-sized bunks and a great area outside to sit and chill. Really relaxed vibe, not very social but with the option to go out and do tours. Location was fantastic if you want to enjoy the bars and cafes in Mendoza.

Megan, United States of America

Friendly and helpful staffs, comfortable bed, clean bathrooms, and awesome garden with a pool.

Roland, United States of America

The staff were excellent. On arrival, they were so accommodating and helpful. The recommendations for the restaurants (Brod - a fabulous choice) and for the excursions (a trip up the Andes on horseback followed by BBQ and the next day, a visit of three different vineyards and distilleries) were incredible. The trip I had thanks to them is something I will always remember. And on leaving the hostel, they were so sweet I got a cookie from them, which for me, made Gorilla Hostel the best place ever to stay !

Emmet, France

The pool and community areas were fantastic and always full of friendly travelers. At one point, we had 9 people from 9 different countries sharing around the outdoor seating. The family-style asado dinner was also a highlight. My favorite excursion to date after ~1 month of traveling was the sunset horseback riding tour through the Andes arranged by the hostel. If I return to Mendoza, I will surely return.

Kathryn, United States of America

It was a great atmosphere and the staff was all very friendly. They offer some great excursion at good prices and are knowledgeable about the local area. The location can’t be beat, just a few blocks from Plaza Italia, Arístides, and the large city park.

Heather, United States of America

Great environment to meet fellow travelers without being a loud party hostel, great location, professional

William, United States of America

This was the best hostel I stayed in on my 6 weeks trip around Latin America in 2018! Belem is the perfect host and goes out of her way to make you feel welcome in her home. Gorilla hostel strikes the perfect balance between relaxation/ downtime and party atmosphere. I met so many cool people here and made friends I will keep in touch with even after my travels have ended. The beds are comfy, the common areas are great (particularly the pool/ outdoor seating/ bbq areas) and there is also a good selection of local wines and beers at reception. If I return to Argentina again in the future I will make sure I pass by the Gorilla hostel. I have already been singing it's praises to other travellers I have met since. Thanks again Belen for making my trip to Mendoza a memorable one!

In walking distance to everything you need. Definitely sign up for the assado they do once a week, it’s amazing. I booked for 3 nights and stayed 7, and would’ve stayed even longer! Every person I met extended their stay. Can’t rate this place highly enough.

“Lack of professionalism with running a hostel”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Bed in 6-Bed Dormitory Room
- • Stayed 1 night
- • Submitted from a mobile device
The hostel is mainly run by young volunteers without any proper hosting experience. The number of volunteers is almost outnumbering the number of guests. It feels like the hostel stuff is more busy enjoying their holidays themself than taking their work as hostel employees serious. In general I felt a lack of professionalism with running a hostel and helping guests out in situation more difficult than calling a taxi.
The location is good and facilities are cozy. Overall it’s a good place to relax at any time of the day. I appreciated the personal nightlights and the outlets next to the beds. Tours offered are nice but a bit pricey.

Lights in the bathroom didn't work, no plugs or lights by the bed which was not ideal when wanting to read at night. Fridges were also messy and not very clean.
The location is good, just a short walk from a large supermarket and plenty of cafés nearby too. Breakfast was good - included scrambled eggs(!) fresh baked medialunas, fruit, teas etc. Staff was also super friendly and helpful when booking tours. Garden is lovely for sunbathing in the day.

It was very noisy at night right up to 2 am. The staff and other backpackers would be up late with no consideration for others in the hostel. I am not a prude and don't mind people here to enjoy themselves but there were notices on the wall to have consideration for others and keep the noise down. Had to leave for another hostel due to this.
The staff were very helpful and friendly giving advice about the things you wanted to do. You can organize tours here. There is a good communal area for travellers to meet. Great big kitchen to cook your own food. Great breakfast. Great atmosphere within the hostel.
