Hostels in Havana
Havana is one of the Americas's most-booked stays — and there's a strong choice of hostels here. A good hostel is the cheapest way to stay central and the fastest way to meet people — and most now offer private rooms too, so you can have the social common room without the bunk. We send you to Booking.com to check live prices and availability — the price you pay is the same as booking direct.

Finding the right hostel in Havana
The trick with hostels in Havana is to sort by guest score rather than price alone — a slightly higher-rated hostel usually costs a few dollars more and reads far better in the reviews. On Booking.com you can filter to the exact facilities that matter and see them plotted on a map of Havana.
Common questions
Do hostels have private rooms, or only dorms?
Most modern hostels offer both — mixed and female dorms plus private singles, doubles and family rooms with the same social vibe and kitchen. Filter Booking.com for “private room” if you want your own space at hostel prices.
Are hostels only for young backpackers?
Not any more — flashpackers, solo travellers, couples and even families use hostels for the price, the location and the social side. Read recent reviews to gauge whether a given hostel skews party or quiet.
Which area of Havana is best for a hostel?
Stay central and well-connected so you're near the things you came for. 1950s cars, sea-spray on the Malecón, live son music spilling out of every doorway in Old Havana. On Booking.com, switch to map view to see how each hostel sits relative to Havana's main sights and transport, and sort by guest score to shortlist fast.
