    Loved this place, of the 3 hostels this was my favorite. A few hiccups with booking but after that was resolved, I really enjoyed the location. It's close to lots if attractions, easy walking distance to many restaurants and shopping centers. The hostel has a kitchen with everything you need, a restaurant inside and help the whole time. I would stay here again.

    A very clean and tidy hostel. Everyone was very interested and the restaurant next to it has very delicious food. We had difficulties just because of check-in and check-out times. Check-in time is 3 p.m and the day is almost over in this season. Since the check-out time is 11 am, it does not compensate for the late check-in time.

    We arrived at the reception in the morning and asked when our room would be ready, they said around 1 pm. Ofcourse we went in the town and went back around 1 pm, but they said we had to wait a little longer. So we sat down in the reception area, while other people could just check in and go to their room. We sat there until 5 pm before our room was finally ready and we didn't even get an explanation. The next day we couldn't use our key cards because for some reason they cancelled the booking "because we didn't show up" and the list keeps on going. Room, bed and shower were ok, nothing more. There are better hostels in Kiev if you want a nice and enjoyable stay.

    Horrible customer service, their magnetic keys to the rooms are not working and if you go to the shower outside of your room - be sure to get locked out of your room and walk wet downstairs to find anyone to open the room. The staff wasn’t there, so I went like this to the caffe to find at least someone. After 5 min - the guy Pasha finally appeared, telling me that “this is typical that keys are not working”. He took my key, rescan and gave me back saying “Now you can open the door”. No apologies, nothing. When I asked why this happened, why did I need to go from the shower like this to the reception to find anyone and you are not even here, why these keys were not working? He told me, that this is the way always happening with their keys. I was so frustrated and stressed. This is the exact example of “Ukrainian style business” in the worse scenario. Horrible attitude, horrible service. Also shower cabins are Dirty and rooms are not what you are booking. I booked double room and they gave me 6 bunk beds, telling that sorry - but someone else have booked, this is the only left. Will never recommend this place. Except the location - don’t waste your money on this. Not worse it.

    Spacious Hostel with fully functional kitchen and regular active cleaning throughout the day. Front staff are very professional and friendly except one prejudiced lady complaining about nothing :)..in any case highly recommended

    Great location, friendly staff with good English. Modern clean facilities. Dorm prices are cheap, private rooms are less fairly priced, better to book in advance. The restaurant in the same building is good, nice to have that so close. Downside is walls are thin and this place is very busy and thus noisy. Even in a private room you hear the hallway music until 23:00 and at 7 in the morning people start slamming doors are hauling luggage. The dorms are worse probably, sounded like a lot of people had trouble sleeping there. Bring good earplugs or book private rooms well in advance!

    I instantly knew that I would enjoy my stay when the manager checked me in, she is so kind and polite. I even ended up extending my stay a couple of extra nights because I enjoyed the hostel so much. The hostel is nice and clean however I noticed that the people who stayed tended to be in the older crowd (I was always the youngest in my rooms) so it was difficult as a solo traveler to meet others in the hostel itself as no one really used the nice common room. It's about a 25 minute walk away from the main square area or a short 2 stop metro ride. There's also a cafe with delicious food located inside the hostel which is great for sitting alone or with friends. I definitely would stay here again.

    I don't share the same enthusiasm as other reviewers, clearly we must have different expectations when it comes to hostels. I stayed for four nights, so I was able to get a pretty good feel for the place. So the good parts first. Staff is really helpful and speaks good English. Location is not bad, even though it might look a bit off when looking at the map if you're not familiar with the city. Showers were hot. Security was satisfactory. However, there were quite a few things that bothered me, some of which would be easily prevented. Two of the days the bathroom was out of hand soap, the other day they're out of toilet paper. It's not particularly clean. Bathroom sinks were disgusting a couple of times, rooms could definitely be cleaned better. The bedsheets are to small for the bed, so it doesn't cover the mattress completely. Beds are squeaky. There's no shelf to put your phone and there's a gap between the bunk beds security railing, which makes your things fall down easily. But the major problem was the lack of proper ventilation, the rooms are extremely humid and oxygen deprived, making it very hard to sleep. Overall I find it hard to recommend this place, but maybe this is as good as it gets for hostels in Kiev.

    quite popular hostel in Kiev. It's nice to have a cafe nearby where you can have a snack or just warm up with coffee. nice courtyard and surrounding area. but, I didn't understand why visitors who pay for a single room that is 2-3 times more expensive than a regular place in a mixed room must live in a basement without windows, and all mixed rooms are on the 1,2,3 floor. why there is no shampoo or shower gel in the toilet, towels are not provided - I have to bring it all with me? the slippers are also for money.

    Dream hostel is a wonderful place to stay in. People there are very friendly and hospitable. The location is great. It's the city center. Traveling around Kyiv will be more easier. Price for one room is around 200 hryvnas (8 people room). Druzi cafe is in the same building. P.S. Food and drinks are great!

    Absolutely fantastic hostel. Rooms available from bunk bed multi occupancy, to individual rooms with shower and toilets. Interior is nice clean and bright with very friendly staff on reception. An attached cafe provides good food and drink options, as well as a kitchen area if you want to cook yourself. The communal showers and toilets are constantly cleaned. Have now stayed here twice! Would definitely recommend and I will return.

    I've stayed here for a weekend and it was very enjoyable experience! The staff are friendly, you can use the laptop at the reception, beds are clean and showers are spacious. Dream Hostels family is well known in Ukraine and it's a trademark for a decent service. Location - Podil neighborhood - is awesome! Would stay here again :)

  • 1/5 Ольга �. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) there was only one night when she took off her bed, she was shocked, the impression was that the mattress covers were not cleaned, they just covered the bed and everything; and the length, if she saw to sleep, she did not even get on this bed !!! (Original) була всього одну ніч коли зняла постісь, була шокована, таке враження, що наматрасників не чистять, а просто застиляють ліжко і все, увесь наматрасник був у волоссі, щоб ви розуміли це не одна і навіть не 10волосин, їх було дуже багато, різних кольорів і довжини, якби побачила до сну то навіть не сіла на це ліжко!!!

  • 1/5 OLGA K. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I am not staying at this hostel for the first time, but after my last visit I was extremely unsatisfied. I do not recommend it and can explain why: 1) the price, it is not justified, nothing is included in the price, except for a bed, you even need to pay for a towel and leave a deposit; 2) the administration does not bother, so I had to go down twice to change the key card, because they were demagnetized and I could not get into the room, I tried to open the door for 5 minutes and no one deigned to help me. Why are cameras everywhere then? 3) What got me most crazy is what you need to take off your bedding yourself and carry it to the reception! As for me it is humiliating, given that I paid 304 UAH. just to spend the night! Can't you wash the floors? 4) Tourist fence! I’m not a tourist at all, and I said this that I came for treatment, and I didn’t want to spend the night in the hospital, I had documents and a certificate of a disabled person of group 2 with me. I can continue this list of shame for the "best" hostel, but hardly anyone reads it to the end. (Original) В этом хостеле останавливаюсь не первый раз, но после последнего визита осталась крайне не довольна. Не рекомендую и могу объяснить почему:1) цена, она не оправдана, в цену ничего не входит, кроме койки, за полотенце даже нужно платить и оставлять залог; 2) администрация не напрягается, вот мне приходилось дважды спускаться менять карту-ключ, потому как они были размагничены и я не могла попасть в номер, я 5 минут пыталась открыть дверь и никто не соизволил мне помочь. Для чего камеры тогда повсюду? 3) То, что меня больше всего вывело из себя, это то что нужно самому снимать постельное бельё и нести на рецепцию! Как по мне это унизительно, учитывая что я заплатила 304 грн. просто чтобы переночевать! А полы Вам не помыть? 4) Туристические збор! Я вовсе не туристка, и я об этом сказала, что я на лечение приехала, и мне не хотелось ночевать в больнице, при мне были документы и удостоверение инвалида 2 группы. Я могу продолжить этот список позора "лучшего" хостела, но вряд-ли его кто-то дочитает до конца.

    Really good hostel. Good location in Podil - really trendy etc. 24 hour supermarket about 50 metres away. At the corner of the block (to your left) there is a rib place you must check out. Delicious and so so cheap. The hostel does really nice breakfast and staff are very friendly. I would definitely go back. Love the Ukranian people.

    (Translated by Google) Too dark lighting in the room, on a double bed room give only one slippers for the shower. Comfortable spot. Nice staff. It is advisable to explain how to use the card for doors (cleaning and so on). Since we did not want to come to us. (Original) Слишком темное освещение в номере, на двух местный номер дают лишь одним тапочки для душа. Удобное место. Хороший персонал. Желательно чтобы объясняли как пользоваться картой для дверей (уборка и так далее). Так как мы не хотели чтобы к нам заходили.

  • 5/5 E M T. 5 years ago on Google
    No complaints. Very clean, attracts a good crowd. Has laundry available, cafe/bar attached. The girls at the desk were friendly and helpful. Would recommend to anyone. Oh! And can't beat the location. And you don't want to climb a hill to get to Khreschatyk, etc.- there's a funicular a few blocks away, and a metro station, too. Everything I could ask for in a hostel.

    The Dream House hostel is THE BEST hostel in the world! I’m serious! The accommodation the staff the facilities. It’s world class. I’ve travelled the world and this is stunning! I really enjoyed the bar crawls! They are fantastic and you have the best times! Look out for ‘Raj.’ He knows everything about EVERYTHING!!! Raj is a doctor living at the dream house hostel and he is the coolest nicest guy you will EVER meet!! This place will leave you with a lifetime of beautiful memories!!! X SKY

  • 4/5 Pawel 5 years ago on Google
    Modern style hostel in old building near central city. Room doors open with magnetic card, on the ground floor bar with food menu and reception. Very helpful English speaking staff. On the downside rooms are obsessively packed with beds, I mean really crowded to maximum. Other than that it's good for a short stay I guess.

  • 5/5 Cay Z. 6 years ago on Google
    Best hostel in Europe! We stayed 2 nights in a private room and it was worth the extra money as the bathroom was fitted better than most hotels. Our stay felt luxurious. Reception was super friendly and helpful with everything. Having the Druzi cafe with amazing food and games was icing on the caramel apple cake that you should try!

  • 5/5 Анна �. 4 years ago on Google

  • 3/5 Ireen 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Not very clean on the minus ground floor. The feeling that they are not being cleaned there, the cleaning schedule is only at 8.00, but in fact, the staff talked to each other from about 7.30 in the morning. And it didn't come to cleaning. ( I chose not to swim, it was very unpleasant to find me in the bathroom. Disinfectants are absent everywhere except reception. The staff are not wearing masks, of course. Although the quarantine continues. Noise isolation is not very good in single rooms. You can hear everything in the neighborhood. On the plus side, there is a friendly administrator, atmosphere and the fact that this is the heart of Kiev. The hem is still. But it cannot be compared with the Dream hostel chain, for example, in Zaporozhye. Keep it clean, please !!! (Original) Не очень чисто на минус первом этаже. Ощущение, что там не убираются, в расписании уборка только в 8.00, но по факту, персонал общался между собой с 7.30 утра примерно. А до уборки дело не дошло.( Выбрала не купаться, очень неприятно было находить я в санузле. Дезинфекторы отсутствуют везде, кроме рецепции. Персонал не в масках, естественно. Хотя карантин продолжается. Шумоизоляция не очень в одноместных номерах. Слышно все, что по соседству. Из плюсов - приветливый администратор, атмосфера и то, что это сердце Киева. Подол все-таки.? Но не сравнится с сетью Dream хостелов,к примеру в Запорожье. Следите за чистотой, пожалуйста!!!

  • 5/5 Urik 4 years ago on Google
    One of the best hostels in the area. The rooms are very clean, each bed has a personal locker area that can be locked. The residential area will only enter with a smart card so there is a sense of security. There is a common area on a reasonable level, but because there is a restaurant bar adjacent to the hostel there is always a nice place to sit. In addition, there is a yard to spend. The internet was just fine, the hostel team spoke English, helped with everything needed and even more. The food in the restaurant was of good quality but relatively expensive for the city. It should be noted that the hostel's location is excellent, close to a train station, a tourist area in the city center, etc.

    I Arriving to Dream hostel. I was shown two options of dorrooms. I chose a room and bed and I paid for a month advanced. After three weeks when my bed still book under me and payd all ready.they told me that I mast move to smell and disgusting room without ventilation! without air conditioner not like I book on the ferst day. or I mast to pay them more money! Because they raise prices(like they say we are a business) It's just a scam offer a room and bed book it take money for advanced for a month. And then tell to client move to prison terms or he needs to add more money. My suggestion be careful with them. Jonatan

    (Translated by Google) [4 * is a comparison with the quality of the hostel of this network in Lviv] Very good hostel, in a pleasant area in the center of Kiev. Good, communicative service. We arrived in the morning and were immediately allowed into the room, which is a plus. Security - lockers (it's good to have your own padlock but can be borrowed at the reception) and key cards as well as the transition from the public part to the sleeping area to the code. Kitchen available but poorly equipped, not as clean as in Lviv. Lots of bathrooms and toilets, which were clean, but some elements can be seen that they need to be replaced. Nearby there are nice places (Lviv Croissants, Puzata Hata, Pijana Wiśnia etc.) and a 24h supermarket. The relatively high price of accommodation, it is also worth noting that the city tax may not be included in the price. (Original) [4* to porównanie z jakością hostelu tej sieci we Lwowie] Bardzo dobry hostel, w przyjemnej okolicy, w centrum Kijowa. Dobra, komunikatywna obsługa. Przyjechaliśmy rano i od razu zostaliśmy wpuszczeni do pokoju, co jest na plus. Bezpieczeństwo - szafki (dobrze mieć własną kłódkę ale można wypożyczyć w recepcji) i karty-klucze a także przejście z ogólnodostępnej części do części sypialnej na kod. Kuchnia dostępna ale ubogo wyposażona, nie tak czysta jak we Lwowie. Dużo łazienek i toalet, które były czyste, ale niektóre elementy widać że już wymagają wymiany. W pobliżu fajne lokale (Lviv Croissants, Puzata Hata, Pijana Wiśnia itd) i supermarket 24h. Stosunkowo wysoka cena noclegu, warto też zwrócić uwagę na to że podatek miejski może nie być wliczony w cenę.

    (Translated by Google) Very good location, very good service and good price. I think it can improve on some points; In the bathrooms on the 2nd floor there is no way to dry your hands, sometimes the showers are a bit dirty and the water pressure is not good. Then, as the walls of the rooms are made of plaster, the corridor is heard quite a lot from the inside. Anyway it is a very good place. (Original) Muy buena ubicación, muy buena atención y buen precio. Creo que puede mejorar en algunos puntos; en los baños del 2do piso no hay como secarse las manos, también a veces están un poco sucias las duchas y la presión del agua no es buena. Después, como las paredes de las habitaciones son de yeso, se escucha bastante el pasillo desde adentro. De todas formas es un muy buen lugar.
