7,000 hostel guests from all over the world have had their say. Their verdict is that the best hostels in the world can be found in Thailand, USA, Australia, Japan and Luxembourg. This was revealed today when Hostelling International (HI) announced the winners of the “Best Hostel Awards 2010”, which are all based on customer ratings made on hihostels.com.
Hostelling International (HI) is the only global network of hostel associations, offering 4,000 hostels in 90 countries worldwide. All hostels provide a good standard of accommodation in safe, friendly surroundings at affordable prices. The popular website www.hihostels.com details all the hostels, provides inspiring travel guides and enables instant online reservations. Every customer who makes a booking on hihostels.com is asked to rate various aspects of their stay. Those ratings form the basis of the HI Best Hostel Awards.
This is the most prestigious award and it is given to the hostel with the highest overall rating. HI Baan Dinso in Bangkok is the winner for the second year in a row. The boutique hostel is an oasis of calm in a bustling city. It is praised for the exceptional service, comfort and cleanliness, but what really makes a difference is the staff, who are always prepared to go the extra mile to make everyone enjoy their stay.
Shin-Osaka Hostel has got the best customer rating in the world when it comes to cleanliness. The comfortable hostel is conveniently located close to Shin Osaka station. Guests can choose between dormitory rooms, twin rooms and Japanese style rooms. The staff are very helpful and the breakfast is also very much appreciated.
This award is given to the country with the highest average hostel rating. The Luxembourg Youth Hostel Association is a network of 10 hostels, the vast majority with an overall rating way above average. The hostels are set in some of the country's greatest beauty spots where accommodation varies from modern chalet-style buildings to an old brewery and an atmospheric castle.
