Auberge de Jeunesse de Namur

The staff provides warm service, ensuring safety and cleanliness. Convenient location near the river and bike storage. Well-equipped dorm rooms with varied breakfast options, good value for money.

Friendly, quiet and clean I was a solo traveller and enjoyed my stay here. The staff were very friendly, informative and co-operative. I was enabled to have as much privacy as required by me, but there were also areas for social engagement with other guests, had I so wanted. The building was exceptionally quiet post 9pm, which suited. Surprising as the hostel was (nearly?) full on the first night. The room I stayed in was very clean, including the towel offered and bed linen. The room was fresh and airy. The breakfast was wholesome Continental and something to look forward to starting the day. The location is over a mile away from the town's shopping area, again which suited, as I prefer to gradually engage with more populated areas. The main part of this walk is beside the river and is pleasant. There is an infrequent (hourly?) bus service from the train station stopping nearby, which I didn't use. I particularly enjoyed resting in the common balcony area in the evenings. This is a semi-open area located just above the front door and overlooks the river. It was also kept clean. I felt very safe throughout, which is very important as a solo traveller. I would certainly stay in this hostel again, should I go again to Namur.
