Botanical Backpackers Hostel

Best hostel I've ever been to.It's safe, clean, and quiet.Erika is the most kind and welcoming host I've met.Thank you again, I'll come back for sure.

Lovely, homey little hostel right in the middle of it all. The beds were comfy, the guest-to-bathroom ratio is good, and the staff are friendly, approachable, and responsive. The vibe is really social, too, it was easy to get to know people in the common spaces. One of the best hostel experiences I've ever had. I would definitely stay here again if I came back to Belfast.

The loveliest hostel, EVERBotanical Backpackers Hostel in Belfast is a little heaven just off Queen's University/Botanical Gardens (with plenty of restaurants around). Erika, the owner and Bailey are so incredibly helpful and create a wonderful atmosphere in this little hostel. The predominantly female guests are well looked after and breakfast is delightful - catering for vegans, gluten free and most other dietary requirements. The hostel is super clean and we absolutely loved our time there. Thank you so much Erika and we hope to return soon.Uta & AnniqueFor best prices, be clever and book direct on their website!!!

Best hostel I've ever stayed at hands down!! Very clean, cute and cozy decorations, little touches all over that most other hostels lack like hand towels in the bathrooms, free tea and breakfast, hair dryers, sanitary products if needed, international adapter power strip so I didn't need my adapter, etc. Erika is incredibly kind and friendly, she was very helpful with any questions and advice about the area. I wish I'd stayed longer, the hostel felt like home! Very social in a calm/cozy way, played cards with some other guests, sat in the dining room just chatting, the living room was adorable and Erika let me drop my luggage off when I arrived really early. Only 5 minutes to a grocery store, 15 minute walk to town, 1 minute walk to the bus stop. Small hostel so you get to know all the other guests, rooms are comfortable, there's a nice vanity to get ready in the hallway. Area is quiet and felt very safe. I hope to come back again!!

Awesome experience. The place to stay for felling right at home, but still like a special guest. Erika is kind, knowledgeable, and very chill. The hostel is calm and easygoing. It happened to be my birthday while I was staying. Erika made me “American Biscuits” from scratch because she knew I had been craving some. They were so yummy! She also had a cake, party hats, and a streamer. The location is close to everything, yet on a quiet street. She provides breakfast including vegan and gluten free if asked. The lockers are spacious and come with their own key. She and her staff will look up anything they don’t know. Just the most accommodating and professional host I’ve stayed with. It is not a party hostel and was predominantly solo women travelers of all ages when I stayed.

The Chic Boutique Apartments were a blend of style and comfort. The modern design and amenities provided a comfortable urban retreat. The concierge was always ready with fantastic recommendations for local hotspots. The central location made exploring the city a breeze. It's the perfect base for a city adventure with a touch of elegance.

I've been to may hostels before and i must say that this was the best hostel experience I had yet. It's a small Hostel with lovely decorations, which made the place feel like a home rather than a hostel. Erika, who runs the hostel, was very friendly and helpful. Whenever I had a question she would gladly help me. She was also very openminded and funny and we had great conversations. There is a quiet after 9 pm rule, which made the place very comfortable to stay at. The beds were comfortable and free earplugs were provided. A bus station is located 1 minute from the Hostel and it takes aproximal 15 minutes to the city centre.In my opinion the room could have had some hooks to hang jackets, a rack for more storage room and bed lights.Other than those minor suggestions, I had a wonderful time in this lovely hostel. I felt very welcomed and would definetly come back to Botanical Backpackers again to stay in Belfast.
