When you travel the globe, as much as you want to push it out of your mind, money is always a factor. Whether you’re partying, eating, sightseeing, lodging, it all comes into play. One of the easiest ways to cut down on costs when traveling, is through lodging. Instead of hitting up every fancy 5 star hotel in every country, hostels are an alternative. Sure, in some cities hostels can be seen as grimy, gross or unsafe, but it’s all about doing your research. There are plenty of hostels in every country that offer everything you could want in travel housing. Hostels are not only a cheaper alternative, but they also offer something most hotels don’t, community. With the community aspect, everyone becomes friends, and next thing you know you’re all raging together. With that, here are some of the biggest party hostels in the world.
The Brewery Hostel, Dublin, Ireland
Sitting right next to the Guiness Storehouse, this hostel is known for the good beer and the good times. With perfect access to plenty of pubs, and the people that stay here in the same mindset, it’s safe to say you won’t be short on brews. They even offer a BBQ area that you can grill up some meats to fill your gut before a long pub crawl.
The Grandio Party Hostel, Budapest, Hungary
