It would be easy to assume that the blogger approved hotels you see on your Instagram feed all come with hefty price tags, but Hostelworld have found some clear exceptions to the rule.
As per Pop Sugar, the hostel booking website have just released a list of the ‘Top 10 most Instagrammable hostels’, as voted by travellers. And in amongst the baths perched on the edge of ridges looking out across the South African mountains and beautiful Bali swimming pools is a traditional Moroccan riad with incredible architectural details – which costs just DHS68 a night! Count us in.
1. Rodamón Riad, Marrakech
SO Instaworthy. Enjoy the Moroccan architecture from the beautiful pool, or drag yourself away to the rooftop terrace with views of the Atlas mountains and Kotubia Mosque.
2. The Farm Hostel, Bali
A swimming pool, sunshine, and sprawling views of the Canggu, Bali, countryside – what more could you want from a hostel terrace?
3. Abbey Court, Dublin
When you see the ceiling covered in bright umbrellas, you’ll realise why this was voted Dublin’s best hostel this year.
4. Central Backpackers Hostel, Catba, Vietnam
If you don’t have a drone, your photo might not look like this one, but the Vietnamese countryside and effortlessly cool huts are definitely just as good.
5. Discovery Hostel, Rio, Brazil
Did someone say party? This hostel in Rio has an open terrace covered in flags, fairy lights and plants, and has been voted best hostel in Latin America.
6. Away With the Fairies Hostel, Hogsback, South Africak
Do we even need to explain? SO GOOD.
7. 99 Surf Lodge, Tola, Nicaragua
If the 4-sided infinity pool doesn’t do it for you, the ocean view and eco-friendly beach front retreat definitely will.
8. Santos Express Train Lodge, Mossel Bay, South Africa
Each room is a converted train carriage that looks over the ocean and South African mountains. Dreamy.
9. Outpost beach hostel , El Nido, Philippines
The balcony and lounge area is looking over El Nido’s sunset beach. Is there anything else you need to know before you reach for your camera?
10. Bambuda Lodge, Bocas del Toro, Panama
The only thing better than this hostel pool is the 150ft waterslide going into the ocean.
