Really unique hostel, loved the vibe of the place - great for meeting and hanging out with people in a more chill setting. Jordan and Anna were fantastic hosts. If you‘re after something social but not party oriented, I can‘t recommend highly enough.

The Loft is easily one of the best hostels I've stayed in. It's small, cosy, well maintained, and the staff are really lovely and helpful. It's super close to the centre of the city, the river, and loads of metro/bus/tram stops. Shout out as well to Kis Pipacs bakery just round the corner. The large communal areas make socialising really easy and the beds/lockers are decent enough. Thanks Anna and Jordan for making my stay so nice!

Really good stay, it felt less like a hostel and more like bunking in someone’s home. The hosts are friendly and did a great job of creating a “homely” atmosphere. Great location (nearby city centre), good value for money and good people - hard not to recommend this especially for solo travellers.

Excellent hostel! I kept extending my stay because I liked it so much. Staff (Ferci and Anna, and volunteers) are awesome, very friendly and welcoming. It's a really good balance of sociable and calm, so you'll meet cool people to go to Szimpla Kert or Instant Fogas with, but it's not a party hostel so you can actually relax and sleep well at night. They have a kitchen, huge living room, and comfortable beds. They even provide flip flops and towels to go to the thermal baths. I'll 100% stay here...

I stayed 2 nights just after Christmas and wished I stayed longer. This is a place very well designed for organic relationships to form. Hardly any performance, or peer pressure towards a norm. Everyone just does their own thing. You'd think that means everyone is alone and lonely, but somehow, the place and the people who hold it, makes people want to start talking to each other, however little, however much. And maybe hang out. I feel that this is what a hostel is maybe meant to be.

The place is amazing for the price, I got to meet people from all across the globe and made some good friends. The kitchen and living area makes the difference as it becomes an easy spot to hangout and meet people. And there are plenty of puzzles and games to spend time.

Genuinely the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at. Anna and Ferci were so kind and accommodating as hosts and I loved the cozy feel of the hostel. There are shower slippers that you can borrow, toiletries you can use, and the staff will even do laundry for you if you ask! There’s plenty of amenities and a great social vibe. I can’t imagine a better hostel and when I return to Budapest I will be staying here! Area is also very safe and close to some great restaurants :)
