Lenin Guest House & Tours

The property was very clean, thematically decorated, well renovated and warm. It had an accessible clean and nice kitchen and a washing machine.

Everything was really good.

As someone travelling alone in Pridnestrovie for the first time, I felt so comfortable and at home in the hostel. The owner, Dmitri, was very helpful in recommending places to visit and in helping me to make some kind of sense of the country. I think that for the kind of traveller who would visit Tiraspol, the hostel is ideal. The hostel rooms are those of a flat in one of the typical Soviet apartment blocks - so for me just staying there was an experience :)

Best owner ever! He was very friendly and gave me lots of useful advice on what to see and how to get around Tiraspol and the surrounding area. The house is really new and very clean. The room I stayed in had a cute little balcony! I will definitely come back to Dmitrti!

It's not my first time in this place and definitely not the last one! Dima, the owner, is an amazing person with exceptional knowledge about Transnistria region - if you're a curious traveler and want to learn about history and culture, he's the best person you can find and talk to. See you again during my next visit!

Nothing, everythig was perfect.

Positive- —It is called a hostel, but in reality, it is almost a hotel. There are only individual rooms and no group sleeping arrangements anymore (and no bunk beds) —The hostel is very centrally located. Although you enter through the back of the building on an ally, the building is located on a main street (Lenin Street). And it is just one block away from the main street of Tiraspol, 25 October Street. The are lots of shops, eating places, and banks for currency conversions just five minute walk away. Everything you want to see in this small city is only a 5-15 minute walk away from this hostel. —There are only a few rooms. You will not be sharing the hostel with many other guests —The owner/manager is extremely helpful with everything! I arrived two hours earlier than expected and upon notifying him, he came by and gave me the keys and information to check-in early. He even arranged a local taxi to take me to Chisinau Airport for a cheap “locals” price. I cannot emphasize how helpful the owner/manger was to my stay —The owner/manager is very personable and upbeat in nature. All your dealings will be with him —There was good water pressure —There was no problem with hot water. Being that the main steam (water) heating plant is close by, I don’t think you could run out of hot water if you tried. —The WiFi was great! —I visited in November and it was freezing outside. The hostel was surprisingly very warm inside. It is next to a main steam generating plant that all the area buildings use for heat. —The owner/manager is also a licensed tour guide. He can be hired directly to give a 2-3 hour walking tour at a very reasonable price —There is a full kitchen, although let’s face it - with food so cheap in this country, why eat in? —I loved the authentic feel of the place. This is not a bland hotel chain with bland surroundings. You will be living as a local which I love! If you want a Hyatt experience, stay at a Hyatt (and pay Hyatt prices).

Negative- —The hostel currently has no business sign on the building, so you are not sure if you are in the right place or not. I am told the sign was vandalized and a new one sign has been ordered and will be installed soon —It is on floor three of walk-up residential building - there is no elevator —Had only one pillow was on the bed. I could have used two. I am sure if I asked for another one he would have given it to me with no problem.

If you’re heading to Tiraspol and looking for a place that feels like a home away from home, Lenin Street Hostel & Tours is the ultimate choice. Its prime central location makes it a perfect base for exploring the city, with plenty of shops and supermarkets nearby to cater to all your needs. The place had a VERY FRESH RENOVATION finished in October 2024! ALL BRAND NEW! One thing that sets this hostel apart is its cleanliness. Compared to other options in the area (including one located in a less-than-ideal spot near a hospital ditch), Lenin Street Hostel truly stands out. The facilities are spotless and well-maintained, providing a comfortable and pleasant environment. The real gem here, though, is Dmitri, the incredibly knowledgeable and welcoming host. He doesn’t just give tips—he goes the extra mile, offering guided tours around Transnistria that are packed with fascinating history and insights. As a professional photographer, I found Dmitri’s guidance invaluable. He knows every hidden corner of his homeland and shared locations that were absolutely perfect for capturing stunning shots. Dmitri’s hospitality goes beyond the usual hostel experience. He even invited me to his own home to meet his friends, making me feel like a part of the local community. His passion for his country and his genuine care for his guests are truly remarkable. The area is also incredibly safe, even late at night, so you can explore with peace of mind. For those traveling from Chisinau, Dmitri can organize transfers to and from the city, making the journey hassle-free. In summary, Lenin Street Hostel & Tours is more than just a place to stay—it’s an experience. With its central location, impeccable cleanliness, and Dmitri’s unmatched hospitality and expertise, I can’t recommend it enough. Whether you’re a casual traveler or a professional photographer like me, this hostel will make your time in Tiraspol unforgettable.

Nothing! The Best place in Tiraspol to stay short or long term. I would come back and stay at Lenin Street Hostel & Tours again next year. Please pay attention on your arrival time and inform hostel before. They meet people in person for check-in. It is super friendly so do cooperate and respect their time!

Room was Ok, same as on photos. Location is reachable from city center. They communicate in english.

Very naughty owner. We firstly give 8.0 here on Booking but with note that we didn`t trust this owner, because he seemed wierd to us. Then he start to write me messages with threat (!!) and demands to remove opinion. I spoke to booking. com and they send he a form to change opinion and make it worse, so here we go. I never saw such a bad owner behaviour and we have been in dozens of countries. Be very carefull with him. This is a region far from EU and as a tourist surely you don`t wont a hostel owner with who you feel uncertain. Also it`s a cheap city, better pay more and go somewhere else. Also please note out they accepted payment only in Rubles in cash- not a big problem but be cautious of this because our Visas and Mastercards didn`t work there.

The host was very helpful and understanding. Gave me the locations of cafes and restaurants close by. I could plan my day and save time for a trip to Bendery!

Excellent Service and Perfect Location! I had a wonderful stay at this hostel in Tiraspol! The service was excellent. I was comfortable. The location is unbeatable, right near the main attractions and easy to reach from anywhere in the city. The room was cozy, clean, and very well-designed, and I loved the comfortable bed. Highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Tiraspol!

I really liked the location and the cleanness of the hostel. The host Dmitri is as welcoming and hospitable as always! I enjoyed the service and the kitchen. I found everything I needed for a coffee in the morning and hot tea after a walk in the the fresh air. Taking in the sights and meeting the locals.
