Townside Hostel Bremen

A decent backpacking kinda hostel to stay in. Clean rooms, and clean bathroom Would have loved if they even provided towels.

Great hostel in a fairly central location, good prices (although the breakfast selection was fairly disappointing for €7!). Clean rooms with both a toilet and shower room in the room which was very convenient. The staff were very friendly and helpful and happy to speak in either German or English. There were also options to check-in earlier or later if needed. |Lockers in the room were a good size but my main criticism is that the rooms didn't have enough plug sockets, nor sockets in good locations near the bed (but only a minor thing).|Also a good shared kitchen that was fairly well equipped - including free tea/coffee in the morning!

I came to Bremen for a conference and I remained attracted by this hostel for its low prices. My flight was delayed, so they gently allowed me to check-in out-of-time and pay the day after. They didn't provide locker keys (apparently mine was broken) so I was forced to keep my stuff on the bed for the first night (the day after they provided with another locker). It was with fairly great disappointment I discovered towels were not included in the reservation. The amount to pay was not huge, but I would like to be notified in advance on the website if this is the policy adopted. Although Bremen is not a big city, the hostel sits fairly far from downtown, at least 10 mins by walk, which is a consistent amount after a day of complete walking. The hostel features both shared and private (in rooms) bathrooms, which are quite clean. Staff was gentle and keen to help. In particular, special mention to Thomas who welcomes people after reception closes. However, after Thomas leaves (around 23:00), nobody is patrolling the building. The building is pretty old and doors are secured with traditional keys, but they don't give a feeling of safety. In conclusion, I would rather chose another solution unless for a very short stay.

Although it’s not a party hostel, you can meet new people and enjoyed the rest of your stay. I really like the hostel. Everything is really clean. Fully equipped kitchen but if you want, they also have a breakfast as an extra. Only problem I faced was when I came back to hostel at night, someone was sleeping in my bed so I needed to find one of the free beds but this isn’t hostel’s fault. Staff is very friendly and helpful. They answer more than questions you have and give some tips&recommendations. Although upper beds are a little bit high, you don’t have a problem to climb up and also beds are comfortable. If I go to Bremen again, I’ll definitely stay there again. Thanks a lot!

Shared dorms were very comfortable and clean, as well as showers and bathrooms. Late check-in was easy and staff was friendly, very pleasant experience overall.

I stayed here for a week in a one bed room with a private bath. The place is clean, has a kitchen and is situated in a great location, close to the river and the main train station. The staff is friendly (big thanks to the handsome guy who helped us with our laundry). The only disadvantage was the cooktop which didn’t really work. But I’ll definitely recommend it to my friends.

I booked 4 nights in a 5 female dorm. The room was very nice and clean. We had a terrace and the distribution of the beds (2 in an upper level and 3 down) made me feel I had a lot of privacy and silence. The staff is quite friendly. Regarding the location, I loved the neighbour hood. It was lively and full of young people, at night it was also a good place to go for dinner or drinks (many restaurants and cool bars). It was also very close to the city center and if you don't mind walking for a bit more than 10 minutes you will get to the center very easily (just follow the 'nice street'). The only downside I'd say it was that there was no soap in the hand basin or the shower. All in all I'd definetly stay in this hostel again :)

To be honest the place is fully equipped. It was sparkling clean and even though this has been during the pandemic time, the people here were super prepared. I would definitely come back, unfortunately I couldn’t meet the staff who work at the hostel because I arrive super late and left super early but everything was ready for me to arrive and leave. Maybe the only thing I would suggest is upgrading the pillows which are a bit weird and offer towels? Besides that I am just thankful to you guys! Take care and best wishes :)

Great hostel! Special for big groups. We were 26 and I have to say not of the most quiet groups of people. They attended us perfectly and we spent 4 great days there. The room and bathrooms were very clean. There was also a kitchen which anyone could use, and they made free coffee in the morning!! I will probably repeat if I ever come back to Bremen.
