I had a pleasant stay at The European Hostel. The location is convenient—close to public transport and just a short walk from many popular attractions in San Francisco. The front desk staff, especially Nick, was incredibly helpful, welcoming, and attentive to guests' needs, creating a friendly and supportive atmosphere. The rooms were clean and the facilities were well-maintained. The common areas, including the kitchen and lounge, were great for relaxing or connecting with other travelers. Housekeeping staff did a good job keeping everything tidy and fresh. Overall, it's a great budget-friendly option for solo travelers or small groups looking for a centrally located hostel with a community vibe. I would definitely stay here again!

I recently stayed at The European Hostel and had a great experience, especially thanks to the incredibly friendly and helpful staff. From the moment I arrived, they greeted me with a warm welcome and made me feel right at home. The front desk team was always ready to answer questions, give local tips, and assist with anything I needed during my stay. Their positive attitude and genuine kindness really stood out—it made a big difference and created a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere throughout the hostel. Whether it was helping with directions, recommending places to eat, or simply having a nice chat, the staff truly went above and beyond. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly place in San Francisco with a personal touch and amazing service, The European Hostel is a great choice. Highly recommended for solo travelers and backpackers who value a welcoming environment!

5 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Amazing Staff – Especially Nick! I had an incredible experience staying at The European Hostel in San Francisco! The location is convenient, the atmosphere is friendly, and the amenities are just what you need for a comfortable stay — but what truly made my visit exceptional was the staff, especially Nick. From the moment I arrived, Nick went above and beyond to make sure I felt welcome and comfortable. He’s not just professional, but also genuinely kind, respectful, and always ready to help. Whether it was offering great local tips, helping with directions, or just checking in to make sure everything was okay, Nick made me feel more like a guest in someone’s home than just a traveler passing through. It’s rare to find someone so dedicated, thoughtful, and efficient. His warm energy and positive attitude truly made a difference in my stay. If you’re looking for a place with a staff that cares, this is it — and Nick is the heart of it all. Thank you, Nick and the entire European Hostel team! I’ll definitely be back.

I had a fantastic stay at The European Hostel in San Francisco! The atmosphere was welcoming, the location was convenient, and the vibe was perfect for travelers looking to explore the city on a budget. What really made my stay memorable was the amazing staff – everyone was incredibly friendly, helpful, and always willing to go the extra mile to make guests feel at home. They truly care about creating a comfortable and safe environment for everyone. A special shoutout to Nick, the Hostel Manager, whose leadership and dedication were clearly reflected in every corner of the hostel. Nick is professional, attentive, and always available with a warm smile and helpful advice. His local knowledge and calm, organized presence made everything smooth and stress-free. Whether it was helping with directions, recommending hidden gems, or just having a friendly chat – Nick made a real difference in the overall experience. If you’re looking for a clean, affordable, and friendly place to stay in San Francisco, The European Hostel is a top choice. Highly recommended – I’ll definitely be back!

I didn’t know much about San Francisco when I booked this place, and I wasn’t aware that it is in an area called “the Tenderloin”, which is known to be one of the rougher areas. That being said, I had very little worry and no issues while I was there. This place was pretty much what I expected when I booked it; just a place for me to sleep. I booked a twin room to myself as I was over the age of 30 and it was all I needed. But know that the room is literally a twin bunk bud and that’s it. I would recommend a desk or a nightstand or something in there in the future. Would be nice, but I’m not complaining. My sheets were clean and I was comfortable, and that is all that matters. Two recommendations I would make, other than a nightstand or something in the room, is a better cleaning in the shared bathrooms. I can tell they were serviced morning and night, but it would be beneficial to clean out the inside of the showers. They were pretty disgusting and stayed pretty gross the whole time I was there. Lastly, I think it would also be beneficial to vacuum the steps and steam clean them. They smell pretty bad. Front desk employees were easy and friendly, and I greatly appreciate that. Kitchen had all I needed. Overall, again, all I needed an expected. But a few considerations for the future would potentially give them a higher score, at least in my mind.
