We so enjoyed our visit to The People in Lille. Our ages are certainly older than most guests but that only added a positive note. The staff was very helpful, the bar was a happy evening experience and breakfast was very good. Our ensuite room was very comfortable too!

Paul United States

Great place to stay at when you're planning a trip to Lille. The staff was very kind and the hostel itself very comfortable. The integrated bar is definitely another big convenience!

Gill Germany

Helpful staff, nice location, nice breakfast. The bar area is sufficient and the guinness is decent.

Chris United Kingdom

Room very spacious. Staff very friendly and it was in a great location.

Jane United Kingdom

Privacy curtains were nice, custom lighting per bunk and shelves all really useful, nice bar area with good drinks, live music and good food

Keshal United Kingdom

We had a wonderful stay in this delightful little hostel in Lille. The staff were the absolute positive point, chatty, friendly, helpful - it felt like family with them. Equally the bedroom was spacious and nice and the bathroom a very decent size, both nicely styled and clean. Our sleep was comfortable and always good.

John France

Attention to details, new luxurious kitchen, spacious bathrooms, good atmosphere, bar, cheap but good coffee.

Marie Ireland

Very relaxing hotel, I was very pleased with my stay. The staff were excellent and were very friendly. Would highly recommend this for future visitors staying in Lille.

Kai United Kingdom

The room we stayed in was exactly like the description. We asked for a Double bed and got it with no problem. Altough we didn't get to go to the bar/lounge, the atmosphere there seemed really nice! The staff was also very accomadating and nice!
