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.

    Great location for the station, the university and the town centre. Quiet area, waking up to the 🐦 and a roon with a feel from another Era. Everyone was very polite and helpful.The bar hosts an exquisite selection of whisky and breakfast is delicious.

    I chose this hotel because I was coming by bike, and I know that this hotel allows me to keep my bike safe in my room. Nice hotel with friendly staff.

    This is one of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in. Each bed is within a self contained unit within a dormitory so privacy is assured. The bathrooms were modern and clean as were the kitchen facilities and dormitory. Located in the centre of Zwolle and yet quiet at night. Staff superb. Friendly and helpful.

    We had a fabulous stay. The staff were very kind and gave us a lovely welcome, stored our bicycles safely for us. The bedrooms were very comfortable with everything we needed for a nights stay. Great location, convenient for the station and an easy walk to the Old Town. Rated the breakfast the best of our trip, a buffet with lots of choice.

    Great location, good facilities nearby. When the key in the safe outside was missing, the service was swift and accurate.
