    The location is amazing - Col. Roma and Col. Condesa are much more enjoyable places to stay than the Zocalo. This hostel is well-run, has great common areas and a very cool owner, Juancho. He also is a DJ and will invite guests to his performances at some of the best spots in the area. The only... more

    We enjoyed our stay for 2 weeks. The locations is marvelous, young and trendy. But not so far from real Mexico feeling. Hostel is smallish and cosy, easy to meet other travelers.

    The hostel is located in a quiet and safe neighborhood but within walking distance of a bar zone, El Bosque de Chapultepec and two metro stops. There are several places to eat nearby and a supermarket two blocks away. The rooms are clean, the common area is quite nice and the staff is fun and... more

    About the worst hostel I've ever stayed at. Management too stingy to provide toilet paper. Staff too lazy to be bothered.

    I like Hostel Home for its great location--near the Metro, quick walk to the Bosque de Chapultepec, safe neighborhood at night--and for its unique character imparted by the old French-style building that houses it. The staff is friendly and was very helpful to me when I lost my credit card and... more

    I really enjoyed my stay at Hostel Home. It was quiet and friendly. Good suggestions from the staff. The neighborhood is pricey, but I didn't spend much time there. It always felt safe returning at night.

    Hostel Home was a great looking hostel on the surface but once we got there it didn't quite live up to its reputation. The dorm had no curtain, working socket and was very dusty. Also the night receptionist really should look for a new job. He was asleep from the beginning of his shift, hated the... more

    The staff were helpful and friendly and the location was very nice. There was only 2 showers in the hostel and I always had to wait a long time. There is nowhere to put your clothes inthe shower area either. A fairly good hostel but needs better bathroom facilities.

    Had a great time here... staff were very helpful, and met some awesome people. The location is great- a 10 minute walk from the metro, but the neighbourhood is cool, so it goes quickly! Would highly recommend this place!

    I must admit, after 5 years of almost constant backpacking through hostels, and this place ticks all the right boxes. You cannot beat it in Mexico City, and possibly the world. Awesome vibe!

    Nice accommodation, but its located fare from the city center. The taxidriver who drove us to the hotel scared us a lot though, when he told us about the bad neighborhood. Perhaps thats why there was an armed guard at the front gate...Its a long way fromt the themeparks, if thats your priority.

Description of Hostel Home

Feel at Home !! in the trendy area of town ' Roma - Condesa' with an excellent nightlife, surrounded by cafes, parks,restaurants, shops, galleries and the coolest bars and pubs in the city. Hardwood floors, mouldings and balconies convey a historic elegance that constrasts nicely with the casual vibe. The handsome living room and airy rear terrace provide a great place for interaction with other travellers and our easygoing, trilingual staff. The Home is everything an international youth hostel should be. You will have a great experience when you come to this side of the city. We make every effort to keep everyone happy, we have even managed to wangle free entrance passes to some pretty good clubs and bars for Hostel Home guests Being close to Insurgentes (a huge street that runs from one end of the City to the other) it is quite hard to get lost, even for those who have no sense of direction!
