Hostels Club, www.hostelsclub.com

HI,

I have discovered the following during the booking via hostelclub.com:

Let's imagine, I have selected a single room for 1 night that costs 25.11 EUR. The Hostelclub.com shows the total deposit as 100% of the price (2.51 EUR).

Once you press the "BOOK" button, the page shows that the total price to be paid is 25.11 EUR (the same) but deposit to be paid grows up to 4.51 EUR as it includes service charge of 2 EUR that drops out of sky.

Therefore, the total price to be shown to the customer should be 27.11 EUR.

This small trick generates hundred thousand of eur for the smart owners.

I booked a hotel through Hostlesclub. But after one month, I received an e-mail by the hotel, which told me the price I booked was incorrect.

I told Hostelsclub the problem. Hostelclub let me "BE PATIENT", and they would handle with it. BUT after more than one month, still NOTHING!

If you need to book a hotel/hostel, I definitely NOT suggest Hostelsclub.

The first Time that we used this web site we did a totale of 12 reservations all over Europe and all of the hostels chooses was really clean cheap and central and it was a great experience for me and our friends and we will highly recommend this web site since they just recommend properties and you can use there services to book those properties and personally I think they are doing a great job!

Hostelsclub took my money for a deposit on a booking I made, until I was informed that the hotel couldn't accept the credit card I had used to make this booking. Hostelsclub promised me a refund on the deposit if I used an alternative card to make another booking, but they not only took the money for the deposit on the alternative card, but also keep the deposit made on the original card. Despite numerous requests and their agreement to refund the initial deposit, they never came through on this - and are since not returning any of my emails regarding this matter.

DO NOT USE THIS SITE - there are other more reputaable companies to book your accomommodation through

I've never heard of hostelsclub.com before a friend of mine suggests me to use it...and it's a pity, since last summer I traveled through Europe and booked most of the hostels from this smart site.

PRO: user friendly, clear, safe, plenty of cheap accommodations, maps, reviews and useful infos

CON: old style graphics, it's not possible to pay with paypal

Some of the best hostels I booked through hostels club are in Berlin (Inn-Berlin Hostel), Dusseldorf (A&O hauptbahnhof), Munich (Wombats) and Paris (auberge internationale des jeunesse)...I spent few money and have a nice and comfortable stay...

I didn't like my stay in Nice (Hostel Smith) because the room was small and the bathroom shared with too many guests.

Finally I can recommend hostels club to all backpackers looking for budget accommodation when travelling in europe.

WE BOOK A HOTEL AT DELHI INDIA IN MAYA,S NEST THE

IF YOU WANT TO BE UNINSPIRED ...HOSTELSCLUBdotCOM IS THE CHOISE

KEEP AWAY FROM THIS SITE

We used hostelsclub.com to book accommodation in Rio de Janeiro for carnival. Knowing that this time is very busy and expensive we booked in August 2010 for March 2011! We tried to confirm our booking with the hostel in Jan but they never replied to the 3 emails I sent. They did however manage to email us 1 week before we were due to arrive to tell us that hostels club made an error with overbooking and we couldn't get the private room we had booked and that we would have to share. Hostelsclub did not to reply to another 3/4 emails I sent!! I doubt this was a hostelsclub error, since it turned out to be a hostel scam after we were put into a dorm with 10 people and they refused to budge on the price. BUt they could have replied - it was a very stressful time for us and the stay here has been horrible.

This was by far one the best ostels i stayed in for a long time.

I'd recomend taking the pickup service as it's a bet complicated to find ind by yourseulf in the first time.

We enjoyed the realy enjoyed the desert safari they organaize also.

Thank you so much Kamal for making our trip.

I needed to book many hostels for my summer abroad since I had many free weekends where I traveled all over Europe and I have to say that while I was a bit weary of this new site, it definitely worked fine. I booked hostels in London, Paris, Berlin, Florence and Rome. When I got this random email saying I got a free weekend in Venice, I thought they were joking until I got another confirmation email when I requested the free weekend in particular. I have to say that what started off as a test trial of this website ended up being the best discovery cause they hooked me up with a free hotel room for two for two nights for making the bookings I would have made anyways! I got what i paid for in some of the hostels, but the hostels in Berlin were off the hook. I would definitely use this website for my next trips!
