I wouldn't stay anywhere else!close

This place was packed with character, the staff were very helpful. Loved that the beds were singles with two giant lockable drawers underneath, Fab idea guys. I just love you couch in the bath too!

Amazing staff. Very nice friendly crowd. Warm and welcoming staff. Great place to stay. Only wish they had a gathering place other than the kitchen. Great location within walking distance of many sights. Close to the metro and trams.

It is the kind of place to chill out, and meet other travellers at an easy pace. The themed rooms are way cool, but in the indian room it can get noisy with the squeaky luggage drawers, stairs and doors. The front door bell is a tune so lasts a long while and easily woke me up. Otherwise a fantastic hostel.close

Aventura Hostel is one of the best hostels I`ve stayed at. It's extremely clean and the themed rooms are fantastic. It's a good hostel to relax in, but also great to party, as the staff tell you where to go out. Definitely a winner!

It was big and airy with a balcony where we could enjoy a cold beer at the end of a long days of sightseeing. The staff at Aventura are all really friendly and helpful, they gave us tips on what to see and what restaurants to go to. The Szechenyi Thermal Bath is only 40 minute walk from the hostel, highly recommended we spent 5 hours in there! Will come back to Budapest and would consider staying at Aventura again.close
