My 4 Favorite Hostels in Boston (Updated 2025)

"Located about 20 minutes outside Boston in Everett by Wellington station, Backpackers Hostel & Pub is well-run and newly renovated with good public transport links and a free shuttle to/from Wellington. It has a lively social atmosphere centered around a small on-site pub and pool table area, and sits near the craft beer district with breweries, a cannabis dispenser, and a food truck area. Rooms come with bathrooms and kitchenettes, the beds are simple wire frames but comfortable, male/female/mixed dorms are available, and free breakfast is included." - Matthew Kepnes

The Rooms are clean and smell nice. We got sheets when we checked in, but no towel or even hand towels for the bathroom. If I had seen the place before, I would probably booked one night instead of two. There is a great pizza place just down the street, Main Pizza! It has made the stay MUCH more enjoyable!

Incredible experience!!! The negative reviews on this business are ABSOLUTELY wrong. I’ve stayed in hostels from New York to New Delhi and this is, hands down, one of the best I’ve ever seen. After staying here I’m convinced the sub-par reviews are generated from people that never actually visited this hostel, I don’t see any other explanation. Easily the nicest, most accommodating people I’ve stayed with in years, everything is clean, and incredibly interesting wall art—especially if you’re a Beatles fan! I can’t recommend this place enough, I won’t stay anywhere else next time I’m in Boston.

Super budget friendly hostel that provides breakfast and coffee in the morning. Front desk is super helpful and let me extend my stay on short notice.

Was great! And I managed to phone them before I went which I love!!|The staff were friendly, I felt safe on my own and I could easily leave my bag there. Super simple breakfast with coffee tea and toast - all I needed. Plus between 8am and 4pm there’s a guy called Steve that can give you a lift to Chelsea train station if you need it. Easy to get to Salem. ||It’s an old school Hostel - just how they should be ||I worked it out but make sure you leave in good time to get to the airport if you need to - cause Everett is just on the outside of Boston ||Thanks. Was great!

Cool little hostel, with music vibe in its decor. It's just outside center of boston, but everything is easily accessible ( I had a car, but public transit is not too far, and they do provide a shuttle from what I saw in the mornings) Property is well maintained and clean environment. Staff is excellent, friendly, and very accommodating. The parking lot is a big bonus in my opinion. Although it's small, I've not had issue getting a spot when I visited.|Breakfast is simple - toast with butter and jelly, just enough to get you going...|For the price, this is a great spot for spending a weekend in Boston

We booked a private room. It had one double bed, tv, microwave, refrigerator, private bathroom inside the room with tub/shower combo. The room looked recently updated. Everything looked new, freshly painted, clean and a comfortable bed. Was it the Ritz? No, but for under $200 and 10 minutes from the city, it was perfect. All the staff were polite and friendly. I'll definitely stay again next time we need to go to Boston. Tip: Book directly from their website for a better rate than the travel websites, plus all the $ goes directly to the Hotel.

The place overbooked the room wasn't as pictured. They did refund me because of the overbooking. We were put around the bar.

Great hostel with the right spirit, good price for a clean, pretty comfortable bed for the night. Each room has an AC and it’s easy to reach public transport from the building. Helpful staff and great couches in the common room. Modern, clean bathrooms n there’s always hot water ! Highly recommend.
