11th Hour Cinema Hostel in Budapest, Hungary

Arrived in 11th hour after being let down by 2 other Budapest hostels (Island Hostel shut down the day before I arrived and so far still have my deposit). The hostel is a true bargain, very well featured and nicely looked after- it has great social areas, with a well stocked cinema, free fussball and a smoking area. I would definitely recommend the place to anyone coming to budapest. Tom, from England ~ 28th Sep 2009

It was our first time in Budapest and we were very happy with this hostel. The staff were very helpful and friendly. People respected food if you bought from the grocery store and left it in the fridge with your name on it. The common room and kitchen were clean. The bathrooms got dirty everyday because the floors were tile and people wore dirty sandals into the bathroom, but they were cleaned every morning. The hostel is easy to find from the airport, we took a taxibus and the price was cheap. Erika, from USA ~ 30th May 2009

I think the biggest set back was the location. It is great during the day but at night it feels very unsafe due to the fact there isn't much lighting on that street. It feels like a back ally. You can have lots of fun and they have a great lounge room and the staff is very friendly. You can also get a pad lock if you desire a locker for your backpack.

We understand your fears but really this is one of the safest areas of budapest which is already an extremely safe town- if u have been to Amsterdam or Barcelona in the middle of the day i honestly believe u have exposed your self to more risk than running around Budapest all night drunk- Budapest can look run down but pls dont mistake that with danger or ghettoesque crime. Astoria is a busy area with night shops and people at all times. Although we are right next to the Astoria intersection its true that our street is quiet and rather empty of cars - its quiet because nothing happens there no robberies, no stalking, no suicide bombers, nothing much exciting at all except drunken tourists wadling back to the hostel- thats why we chose this street to operate in its quiet safe yet central to the party area and sights.
