Luxury Hostels

Hostelbookers has launched their new “Luxury Hostels” section.

STAY IN THE BEST HOSTELS
HostelBookers’ luxury hostels are legendary. Spend your holiday down time amid cool décor on roof terraces, in Jacuzzis, extravagant lounges and beautiful beds with the best luxury hostels in the business.

The term “boutique” is often applied to hostels for marketing purposes. It has a connotation that brings to mind small size and fancy décor, even though many “boutique hostels” have 100+ beds. The word “luxury” usually conjures up feelings of heightened comfort and extravagance. Personally I would rather stay in a “luxury hostel” than a “boutique hostel.” Good choice of sales language in my opinion.

There are a lot of great hostels featured in HB’s luxury list, although not all of them have dorm rooms. :(

Would you consider your hostel to be a “luxury hostel?”
