Blue Room Hostel Newquay, hotel in St Austell

Featuring a shared lounge, Blue Room Hostel Newquay is located in the center of Newquay, a 6-minute walk from Tolcarne Beach.

Nice very friendly host... Very cheap price and with breakfast included and a lot of facilities. House is refurbished with everything new. Very happy with the cleanliness and the size of the toilet! Location is also fantastic close to the railway station and the forest paradise which is in the east side of the city, would've given a 10 if not was close to sleep outside...

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.

    Facilities were super clean, modern with a rustic touch. Optimal place for backpackers or roadtrippers to spend the night in a comfy bed and to socialize and meet new people.

    Great location and great staff, lovely breakfast each morning with large choice of items, we also booked an evening meal in restaurant and food was beautiful. Parking directly over the road behind hotel which is safe and sound apart from bloody sea gulls, not hotels fault 😃 washed car twice why we were there LOL. Would have no hesitation booking again.

    The vibes were nice in the sense that all of the guests that were staying there were friendly. We all sat by the fireplace, had a coupe beers, and just connected like backpackers do. I haven't felt those type of hostel vibes in a while, so it was really great to just sit by the fire and connect with the people. They also had 2 dogs that were very friendly. The owners were really nice!

    Lisa the host was amazing - my hubby & I had the best time chatting, pootling around the garden, having a personal & immensely knowledgeable tour guide! The property was stunning. Great location, beautifully done up and spotlessly clean. Bed was comfy, we both slept really well. Shower was good. Food was great! Generous portions and was safe for my hubby, who has a severe dairy allergy. We are already planning our next visit, can't wait :)

    Beautiful little apartment, great location, modern, clean, comfortable, amazing shower. Parking space a bonus. Thoughtful extra touches left for us like tea, coffee, sugar, biscuits, water, toiletries, cleaning/wipes & extra toilet rolls! Easy access check in/out via key safe. Excellent and immediate customer service from owners when we couldn’t work tv! Would stay again and would definitely recommend this apartment.
