Property Owners

Offer Online Bookings to Our Guests:
Sign up for your Hostel Inbox and allocate beds for sale on Hostels.com. We'll create a one-page microsite to promote your property (approved by you) with a link which allows guests to see your bed/room availability and make online bookings through our Hostel Inbox system. Signing up is free of charge - all that we ask is a 10% commission fee on reservations made through the system.

Upgrade to a Featured Listing:
Properties with Featured Listings on Hostels.com get on average 4 times more bookings per year than those without. Once you've signed up to offer online bookings through us, you can upgrade to a Featured Listing which gives you top placement on your city or country page. To buy a Featured Listing, login to the Hostels.com Inbox, go to the Promotions section to see the pricing for your city and make your purchase.
