The Grand Hostels: Luxury Hostels of the World’

The biggest secret in travel at the moment is the emergence of a new breed of hostels called Luxury Hostels. These are a new breed of designer hostels where the focus is on creating an experience for guests. Besides ensuite rooms or custom built pod beds in dorms you can find amazing facilities in these hostels like a swimming pool, sauna, a cinema , or a gym and swimming pool or dine with fellow guests and enjoy a 3 course meal prepared by inhouse hostel chef with bottle of port wine for as little as €10

This book is also the story of 116 unique hostels and the amazing people who run them.The people who run these hostels were travellers like you who went travelling around the world and fell in love with the drug of meeting and connecting with people from all over the world. When they couldn’t afford to keep travelling, they started a hostel of their own so that they could keep alive that magical sensation of meeting with people and connecting. These hostels, are in many ways, their dream come true. In this day and age, when we live in a world ruled by idiots, despots and plagued by misunderstanding, hatred and indifference, these hostels are a beacon of light, bringing people together from all divides and making the world a better place. So when you buy this book and visit these hostels you are really supporting an ideal, a dream and in the process adding something new and beautiful to you life.

The Grand Hostels: Luxury Hostels of the World tells the story of 116 luxury hostels around the world-I’ve spent the last 12 years visiting and checking out these hostels. Each of these hostels is an experience and for me represents something pretty special. More details of the book , click here
