Cheap Hostels In Europe
 

Hi I will be traveling to Europe for one month and im trying to do it on a budget. Does anyone know of any good and cheap hostels i can stay at ? Im traveling with a friend so we're looking to spend a maximum of 50 euros a night for a twin room. The cities we'll be visiting are

London
Rome
Venice
Milan
Zurich
Geneva
Paris
Nice
Barcelona
Madrid

Any info is greatly appreciated because we are first timers in Europe !!! Thanks in advance : )

Have a look then ask for details on any that suit your budget & location.
Happy planning & good luck!

OK - what I'm going to sya probably won't please you . . . . But 10 major cities spread over 5 countries across 1/2 of Europe, in 30 days is just plain nuts. Plus you say you want to keep to a budget. Not only does every city change take 1/2 to one full day, they each also increase your costs a LOT.

I'd personally go back to the drawing board and cut your destinations down to 6 (8 absolute max). When you deduct all the travel time, 6 cities would leave you about 4 days free in each place.

Good luck! (Relook at Geneva and Nice and possibly Milan - to give yourself more time in each of the other cities)

Hi everyone thank you for all your replies. It has been very helpful.

Im thinking of spending only a max of 2 days per city with the exception of Milan. I will be getting a rail pass it costs 300 euros for 10 days (non-consecutive) so i figured that will help with the costs.

Also, i'll take budget from london to rome before beginning my travels through europe.

I recommend this web http://www.hostelrail.com where you can find a lot of cheap hostels. If u go to London try to take a place close to victoria Station, because it's good situated and the fares aren't too much expensive.
Good luck

Um, I don;t think you're gong to get a twin room in a hostel for 50 euros.

Based on prices here a bed in a dorm (10 or 12 person) room is about $40 per night - or $80 for 2 people. Some do have private rooms - but not for that kind of price.

You might try the web site of Hotelling International - usually clean and decent quality. Or look at the Let's Go student guides for info.
