Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The hostel offers a fun while meeting new people everywhere and everyday. This is my second time in Koala and both experiences have been extremely great. The rooms are either private or shared with other travellers and you can have a beer at the common area 24h open. I totally recommend it if you want to meet new people while staying in a fun and safe place

    The room and my bed was clean and fresh. You can get a towels as well. I really liked, that every bed has its own curtain so you get a privacy. The design of the bunk beds are amazing, I mean ordinary wooden stairs lead up to the bunk bed not a ladder, given more privacy and your own space as it would be a separate "tiny room" upstairs :)) The room has its own bathroom with toilet. The design of the hostel is so cool, with amazing terraces and common areas. On of the best hostel I've ever been.

    Koala hostel was in a great location, close to a subway station, walking distance from Milano Centrale railway station and also possible to walk to the Duomo area. The staff were really friendly and helpful. There was a comfortable lounge area with lots of books and also a small bar. Despite the close proximity to excellent transport links, the hostel was peaceful at night, so I felt safe and had a great sleep!
