Accommodation with private rooms
For many private rooms are a necessity when it comes to travelling in hostels. While some of the more hardcore backpacker crowd might disagree it’s becoming more and more accepted that a lot of hostels now offer these rooms. The reasons for having a private room vary however the perks remain the same throughout.
Why are private rooms so popular?
As the word implies private rooms offer a deal more privacy over the standard dorm room, invaluable for the light sleepers who can’t sleep without total silence. Families also benefit from having a little bit more room.
Private rooms offer peace of mind, with your own key you can come and go as you please without having to worry about locker space.
All the benefits of a hotel with hostel prices
Private rooms offer affordable accommodation similar to a hotel but with all the benefits of a hostel.
Use of the self catering kitchens and social areas makes the whole experience much more personal. Just because you’re in your own room doesn’t mean you have to stay in it!
The friendly atmosphere of hostels is what keeps people coming back year after year, meeting new people and hearing their experiences is still as easy to do as in a dorm. Socialise over breakfast or by the fire in the evening. All the while knowing you can retire to your cosy private room when your ready for bed.
Treat yourself to a bit of luxury
While bunk beds are tried and tested its always nice to treat yourself every now and then. With many private rooms offering double beds they’re perfect for getting a good nights sleep. Just what you’ll need after a day out exploring some of the UK’s best spots.
