AFFORDABLE HOSTELS

in Amsterdam, Dublin & London

HERE’S THE THING

This is hostel life, but not as you know it. Bunks in old courthouse cells, morning raves before the city wakes up, late-check-out merch drops. Clink is where the good stuff happens. Solo travellers find their people, the city’s underground finds its stage, and two nights turn into five. Come for a bed. Leave with a story. …

The best trips don’t have to break the bank. Our affordable hostels in Amsterdam, London and Dublin are built for the kind of traveller who’d rather spend their money on the city than the room. Three European hotspots. Six properties. All of them in the kind of locations that put you right where things are happening.

Whether you’re a solo traveller looking for your people, a seasoned backpacker who knows what they want, or a group of friends after a city break that lives up to the group chat hype — there’s a room for you. Private rooms with en-suite bathrooms for when you need your own space. Mixed dorms and female-only dorms for when you don’t. All of them comfortable, all of them part of something bigger than just somewhere to sleep.

This is what a social hostel experience looks like. Come and find out.

THINGS PEOPLE ASK US A LOT

The questions we get asked most. Still stuck? We're at reception — metaphorically speaking. Drop our support team a message. We’re here to help.

Are Clink Hostels suitable for solo travellers?
Yes. Clink is a solid, affordable choice for solo travellers, with private rooms, mixed dorms and female-only dorms. Free weekly social events — movie nights, karaoke, comedy clubs — run across all properties in Amsterdam, London and Dublin, so meeting people is built in. Reception is staffed 24/7 at every location.

Can I book a stay at Clink Hostels without a credit card?
No. A credit or debit card is required to secure all hostel bookings. Clink’s accepted hostel payment methods include Mastercard and Visa. American Express and Diners Club are not accepted.

What’s included in my stay at Clink Hostels?
Clink hostel amenities include free Wi-Fi, 24/7 reception, keycard room access and individual power sockets at every bed. As part of what’s included in your hostel stay, private rooms come with fresh bed linen and towels. Dorm guests receive bedding; towels are available to rent. Breakfast, early check-in and locker rental are paid add-ons. These affordable hostel facilities are consistent across all six Clink locations.

Are Clink Hostels safe and secure?
Yes. Clink is a safe hostel across London, Amsterdam and Dublin, with 24/7 staffed reception, keycard or app-controlled access, nightly security teams and CCTV in all communal areas. In-room lockers are available in every dorm. Female-only dorm options are available at most locations for guests who prefer a single-gender space, adding an extra layer of hostel security and comfort.

What makes Clink Hostels different from other accommodation options?
Clink sits between a budget hotel and a traditional hostel — making the hostel vs hotel question easy to answer. Private rooms and dorms share the same building across six affordable hostels in Europe, specifically in London, Amsterdam and Dublin, all within walking distance of central transport links. In-house bars, cafés, a free weekly events programme and female-only dorms at most locations make Clink hostels in London, Amsterdam and Dublin a step above standard budget accommodation.
