What Reddit Says About Hostel Finder Apps

Hostelz.com will show you hostels, all the platforms they are listed on, and for what price on each platform.

Hostelworld, Booking.com or Agoda.

Contact the hotel or hostel directly. Cut out the middle agent. Booking.con can charge you up to 45% more than booking directly. Use them to browse accommodation but when you find the place you like contact t the hotel yourself. Ignore them.

I mainly use Booking.com and hostelworld only for searching.

Hostelworld, their app lets you search by city or has a map, it lets you filter by specific criteria, also shows private rooms in hostels and one of the best features, after you booked a hostels you will have access to a group chat within the app for the city and one of the hostel, so you can alread...

It has a lot of basic information, but a lot of it was shaped around using hostelworld.com to find a hostel. Well, after spending two months using hostelz.com instead, I personally think they provide far superior resources which helps finding ...

Hotel owned apps and American Express. I don’t trust any other 3rd party vendor ... No difference depends on how much and what comments. I also use hostelworld as well. Sometimes only use google map but comment and often reviewer is most relied on. So far no any problem as per my over 14years backpa...

It’s always good to check multiple sites and the hotel site as well, but I’ve done well with hotels.com ... type "flights" in your google search bar and a "flights" tab will occur underneath (right next to "map", "images", "news" etc.), showing a wor...
