Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I'm really impressed by the level of guest care of Limehouse! It's definitely the most comfortable and cosy apartment I've ever stayed in! Great location (15 min by tram from the railway station and city centre), silent and safe street, pizzeria straight in the same building under apartments... The feeling of home, where somebody took care of your morning coffee (coffee maker in the kitchen) and even of your clothes (a housemaid kindly left an iron for me as I've asked while booking)! Thanks for hospitality 💛

    Great location for city walk, it is in the middle of shop/restaurant district. Parking in the basement of hotel. Hotel staff pays attention to covid safety rules, so it seems to be safe.

    Really great location! Very close to the park. Hotel staff was so kind to leave keys in safebox so we could enter the hotel after reception was closed way after midnight.
