If you come to Punte del Este and don't stay at The Trip Hostel I can honestly say you are missing out on an amazing time and your stay in Punte del Este will not be the same. From the moment I arrived at The Trip, the staff were extremely helpful and friendly (not to mention very attractive), and continued... More

I had been travelling for a while in Uruguay and everyone kept telling me Punta del Este is so posh! Depends on who you meet I guess... The 3 owners and the staff at The Trip Hostel are absolutely great!!! The are knowledgeable, super friendly and do get out of their way to help you. They took us to Casa... More

I stayed here with friends in February 2013. We had three beds in a six-bed mixed dorm and stayed for three nights. Pros: - Good location, five minutes from beach, bus station and start of the main drag. - Clean bathrooms. - Very comfortable, oversized beds. We were in triple bunks, which I usually hate, however these were rigidly fixed... More

Cheap, well-located, great staff...The atmosphere is just amazing, it's an ideal place for those willing to make friends. The bathrooms on the first floor are shared but individual, which give you some sort of privacy.

Excellent hostel in terms of atmosphere!! Staff are amazing, very social common area & terrace, easy to meet ppl and go out and great live music!! Short walk to the shops and beaches, and only a couple blocks from the bus station. Only con: rooms are way too small... Literally have to climb over everyone's bags to get it -... More

Where to begin? Everything was great, the vibe, the facilities, the location and especially the staff (Diego and Fio - that's how I called her). I stayed in a 6 bedroom on the first floor, first night alone, the other night with 4 more people, no problems. The bathroom were always cleaned, as I figured out at 4am in the... More

Booked for 2 nights, ended up staying 10! Great location close to the beaches, bus stop and the Main Street. The owners are really chill and accommodating. Kitchen has a new stove and fridge and is fully equip. Cleaners come everyday so the rooms and bathrooms are clean. Late night bongo sessions and good place to have some drinks before... More

the guys that work here really made our trip to uruguay! they showed us around punta del este and were super friendly. the hostel has a very good, laidback vibe. dorms were a bit dark but ok, bathrooms are clean.

I highly recommend this place. Close to the bus station and various beaches, the hostel is very relaxed and accommodating. Although difficult to define, the atmosphere in the hostel is among the friendliest I have encountered. Many people who come here stay longer than they initially planned, and most who I spoke to were disappointed about having to leave. The... More
