Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.
The owner ( Rita?? I'm so sorry. I was so patient and helpful getting me to the Hostel from the bus station( easy once you have your bearings. Great location for touristville stuff, close to water as well Amazing , friendly vibe, great rooftop to socialize, great town to walk about. One bus, close by. direct to Airport
The staff and owner are all fantastic, they really make you feel welcome.
The rooftop is perfect for being social, with nice sofas and chairs.
The hostel has everything you need
Don't miss out on the best hostel in Heraklion.
Great location. Safe. Walking distance from most touristic places, restaurant, shops and the City Centre. Laundry, Cinema Hall a few steps away. Great view of the Venetian fort and the sea from the terrace. Clean flat with good amenities. Very prompt response from host
I would like to call it: "The best youth hostel". Adding any modifiers would be an insult to this hotel. Can you believe this hotel has a rooftop garden? This hotel is very cost-effective. The staff are as close as neighbors. It's really comfortable. I hope So Young Hotel will have branches all over the world！
Great location in the city centre, with almost all attractions within a few minutes' walk. The airport is also close by with a cheap, quick taxi ride. The host (Chrysanthi) was very nice and helpful, no problems with late check in. In addition to the great facilities of the apartment, there was homemade wine, fruit, cakes, mineral water, etc. waiting for us. She was open to help us in every question, even ordering a taxi in the day of departure to the airport.
Clean and tidy rooms and facilities, very helpful staff, great location and view from the roof top. Maybe the best hostel I've been to. Very honest price for what you get.
As a youth hostel it’s great, this is what you’re looking for as a backpacker. You meet different people and the price is great. Rooftop beds 100% recommend (at least in summer).
Great location for the port/Ferry and the centre of Heraklio. very helpful staff, pleasant rooftop bar, and rooms are fine for a short stay. Nothing special but fantastic value for money and ideal for a short/cheap stay.
Great value, old school hostel. Basic, simple, comfortable, friendly and great location. Everything a budget hostel traveller looks for in a place. Rena is super lovely and helpful host. Would definitely return again.
