Prague<\/a> is one of my favorite cities on the continent. I have a long history with the city<\/a>, as it was my first stop on my first trip around the world (all the way back in 2006). <\/p>\n Since that original visit, I’ve returned dozens of times, even leading tour groups there. I’ve watched it become increasingly popular with travelers and expats and more cosmopolitan with each passing year. <\/p>\n Now, this international city is one of the most visited in Europe (go in the spring or fall to avoid the overbearing crowds), with tons of incredible things to see and do<\/a>. Because of the amount of visitors that the city gets, it is now home to an outsized number of hostels, given its small size. <\/p>\n To help you plan your trip, here is my list of the hostels in Prague. If you don\u2019t want to read the longer list below, the following hostels are the best in each category:<\/p>\n Want the specifics of each hostel? Here’s my comprehensive list of the best hostels in Prague:<\/p>\n The hostels are all clean and have lounges with TVs, Netflix, and PlayStations or Nintendos. They are on the more expensive side, but you’re paying for super soft beds, modern amenities, and all those free events so they’re definitely worth the price if you want a more comfortable stay and are looking to meet lots of other travelers. Just note that there are often age restrictions on staying here (typically 18 to 45), so check before booking a bed. <\/p>\n Onefam at a glance<\/strong>:<\/p>\n The three Onefam locations are:<\/p>\n Sophie\u2019s Hostel at a glance<\/strong>:<\/p>\n Little Quarter Hostel at a glance<\/strong>:<\/p>\n The beds are basic bunks with thin mattresses and no curtains, but the rooms are clean and spacious and there are lockers and reading lights.<\/p>\n Travel & Joy at a glance<\/strong>:<\/p>\n The bunks here are basic metal ones but the mattresses are thick enough to get a decent sleep (there are no privacy curtains, however). But the rooms are spacious and some have single beds instead of bunks.<\/p>\n Hostel DownTown at a glance<\/strong>:<\/p>\n Get all my best travel tips along with these guides:<\/p>\r\n Enter your info below to get your FREE<\/strong> guides sent to you today!<\/p>\r\n\n\n\nBest Hostel for Budget Travelers<\/strong>:\n<\/div>\n\nPLUS Prague<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBest Hostel for Families<\/strong>:\n<\/div>\n\nPLUS Prague<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBest Hostel for Solo Female Travelers<\/strong>:\n<\/div>\n\nSir Toby’s Hostel<\/a> or Sophie\u2019s Hostel<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBest Hostel for Digital Nomads<\/strong>:\n<\/div>\n\nLittle Quarter Hostel<\/a> or Travel & Joy<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBest Hostel for Partying<\/strong>:\n<\/div>\n\nMadHouse Prague<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\nBest Overall Hostel<\/strong>:\n<\/div>\n\nSophie\u2019s Hostel<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n1. Onefam<\/a><\/h3>\n
![\"Fisheye](\"https:\/\/media.nomadicmatt.com\/2018\/hostelone.jpg\")
\nOnefam<\/a> has three fun, social hostels in Prague and they are some of the poshest hostels in town. Guests get a free homemade dinner each night and can join in on organized activities, including drinking games, movie nights, and walking tours. There’s always a lot happening at Onefam hostels, making them a solid choice for solo travelers. You get a lot of value here.<\/p>\n\n

\n <\/p>\n2. Sophie\u2019s Hostel<\/a><\/h3>\n
![\"Caf\u00e9](\"https:\/\/media.nomadicmatt.com\/2018\/sophies.jpg\")
\nThis is my favorite hostel in Prague. It is an upscale hostel (and a sister property of the awesome hotel Miss Sophie\u2019s). The rooms have modern furnishings, soft beds, clean bathrooms, and showers with incredible water pressure. The downstairs bar is always lively, the hostel runs lots of events, and the staff is super helpful and knowledgeable. When booking online, be sure to add the breakfast buffet. It’s well worth the extra 150 CZK (or 200 CZK for the hot brunch option). <\/p>\n\n
\n <\/p>\n3. Little Quarter Hostel<\/a><\/h3>\n
![\"3](\"https:\/\/media.nomadicmatt.com\/2018\/littlequarter.jpg\")
\nLocated between Prague Castle and Charles Bridge, this hostel is in one of the nicer neighborhoods in Prague<\/a>. The rooms are clean, and there are privacy curtains for the dorms (always a nice touch) as well as spacious lockers. There\u2019s a roof patio and great views from the top-floor rooms. You can sometimes get discounts when you book directly at the hostel\u2019s website. In contrast to most of the hostels in town, Little Quarter offers a calm, non-partying atmosphere. <\/p>\n\n
\n <\/p>\n4. Travel & Joy Backpackers<\/a><\/h3>\n
![\"Room](\"https:\/\/media.nomadicmatt.com\/2018\/travelandjoy.jpg\")
\nThis new hostel in Prague is close to everything. It’s family owned, so they know a lot about the city. There\u2019s also a yummy traditional Czech restaurant on-site. If you\u2019re here in the summer, check out the great new terrace. This is also another low-key hostel, so stay here if you aren’t looking to party but rather want something small and intimate.<\/p>\n\n
\n <\/p>\n5. Hostel DownTown<\/a><\/h3>\n
![\"Hostel](\"https:\/\/media.nomadicmatt.com\/2018\/downtownhostel.jpg\")
\nThis is one of the best hostels in Prague for travelers looking to party and socialize. DownTown offers free city and castle tours, talent shows, pub crawls, cooking classes, beer pong, and more. There are communal dinners a few times a week, a daily buffet breakfast (150 CZK), and a fully equipped kitchen for preparing your own meals. Ask for a spot on the fifth or sixth floor, as you\u2019ll have a great view of Prague.<\/p>\n\n
