- Naim (8/5): - It felt like traditional Palestinian house, and included everything I needed I didn't feel convenient with the welcoming phone conversation I had with the host. The fact that the host said that there's no parking place, while I realized that there actually is.
- Roberto (10/5): Outstanding hostel in the heart of Ramallah - This hostel is located in a very central spot in Ramallah. The manager was a very interesting person, super helpful and friendly and did everything to make us feel at home. The private room was comfortable and spacious, with a good bed and clean facilities. It was what we needed for our short stay (around 5 days). The common spaces are also large and well-equipped. The kitchen had everything we needed and it allowed us to cook and eat. We also had a chance of meeting other travelers and talking with in the kitchen or the garden. A great way to visit and get to know Palestine. Other guests could be a little noisy. Especially at night.
- MALAK (10/5): - A beautiful safe and clean place i knew it by chance and it was a beautiful coincidence that exceeded all my expectations..i recommend it to everyone if you want a place with safety and nice people to deal with
- Luc (10/5): It felt like home - Best location, the owner is a really great and welcoming guy. You can do your laundry, cook and there is everything you need inside. WiFi is good, and the place is clean and affordable. Really deserves more customers !
- Kai (10/5): - 房间宽敞,室内公共空间也很大,门外还有一个小院子。位置靠近市中心,出行方便。房主人非常热情友好,可以从他这里了解到关于 Ramallah 的所有信息。
The room is spacious, with large indoor common areas and a lovely yard outside. The location is close to the city center, making it easy to get around. The host is super friendly, and you can get all the information you need about Ramallah from him.
- Mayson (10/5): - This is my second time staying here and everything was fantastic. By far the best bathroom and kitchen facilities of any hostel I've stayed in Palestine; there's even a blender! The host is very welcoming and the location is ideal, just a few hundred meters from where the public bus drops you. Would recommend 100%
- Steven (10/5): One of many highlights of an amazing visit to the West Bank. - Fantastic place at a very convenient location in the heart of Ramallah next to the Quaker school and bus terminals. Host was helpful and responsive beyond expectations. Unfortunately due to the war few people are attending. I had the bunk room to myself.
I could only imagine what it would be like with a variety of travelers.
I'd encourage everyone to disregard the warnings meant to scare away visitors to the West Bank. The only risk of violence comes from settlers and incursions from Israeli military and these target Arabs, not foreign travelers.
- Sohaib (10/5): -
- Andalus (9/5): Feels like home - Spacious
Feels like a home, big kitchen, washing machine, comfortable mattress, clean bathrooms
The staff were friendly
There’s a locker with a lock
Would definitely come again
- Inita (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was great! The host was incredibly helpful too. I hope tourism returns to Palestine soon.
- Martin (10/5): A traveller’s dream. - Central location, close to shops, the main square and to the bus/taxi station. Very convenient. The house is secluded in a private street. It has all the amenities a traveller needs. Most importantly, Thaer who runs the place has great vibes and will help with anything you may need. His brother runs a falafel place in central Ramallah which is worth a visit.
I will go back to Ramallah… and I will stay there again!

Internet was excellent, as were the facilities.
Shayab even linked us up with a local Palestinian young man who showed us around Ramallah city at a leisurely pace. Nothing! The place exceeded our expectations. Thanks so much.

The location of the hostel is perfect and makes it really easy to enjoy the place! I heard a lot of good things about this place before and it didn’t disappoint us in any way. The rooms were cozy and clean and the common areas are nice to meet other guests.
- Jasper (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lucy (10/5): Really fun week with friends in Ramallah :) - I loved my stay in Ramallah! The location was really great for getting to the city center, there were lots of restaurants around the area, and the property gate and code helped me feel really safe. Also, I got sick during my trip (entirely my fault out of the hostel's control) but the property managers were so kind to me, making every effort to accommodate me and make me feel comfortable. Amazing service. The only issues I had were with the wifi which is not really something they can control. A lot of that has to do with coverage.
- Aziz (10/5): Clean rooms and facilities, friendly staff and owners, awesome location. - The location of the property is at the heart of Ramallah town centre with all the shops and amenities at its door step. The property is nicely situated and tucked away from the busy road. The property seems to be newly renovated with everything in good working order. They have a lovely garden to enjoy and relax in the evening as well a common room for all. The owners are very friendly and happy to help with any queries. Definitely one of the best clean hostels I've been too and matches European standards rather than local standards - which is a big bonus. Nothing.
- Klára (10/5): Great hostel which has everything you need for your comfortable stay. The owners are very nice and helpful. 10/10 😊 -
- Bendrif (10/5): Exceptional - Best location to enjoy the city. Great hosts. The owners were very friendly and helpful.
- Johanna (10/5): Perfect location next to the bus station with buses to/from Jerusalem. Super friendly host. - Very friendly host and a cozy little yard outside the hostel
- Raoul (7/5): Good - Great location, rooms are nice and provided with lockers. Nice living room and communal space. Plenty of showers and bathrooms for all guests. Many mosquitos, but with AC on it became much more comfortable.
- Christiane (10/5): I had an awesome stay in Ramallah! -
- Leander (10/5): Exceptional - The Ramallah Hostel staff was very warm and welcoming. We stayed two nights and only can recommend the place in the city center. My overall impression with regards to safety was also a very positive one. If you still are considering going to Ramallah due to safety concerns, it seemed to me to be exceptionally safe even at night.
- Sanni (8/5): Very good -
- Petr (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dalal (9/5): Superb -

- Lucca (10/5): Exceptional - I had a very good time in Ramallah at Thaers place. He is a very nice and easygoing Host. Ramallah is a vibrant and very exciting city. I felt very secure at all time going around. I love the market and if you know some people there is also nice bars.
- Niels (10/5): Great new hostel in central Ramallah for short or longterm stay - The hostel has been established recently. Thus, everything inside/outside is brand new, there are two clean restrooms, a big kitchen, two terraces, a convivial room, and four bedrooms. The building is big enough to not step on each other's toes, which also created a comfortable atmosphere.
I liked most the very kind and helpful host Thaer, you won't find a better one I guess. He's all around and directly provides support or advices. If he's not there, you will find Francesca who immediately tries to help. Great team!
The hostel is easy to reach from the central bus terminal, or from the sherut taxi drop-off (less than 5 min walk). There is nothing to complain about. I've stayed in many hostels in Europe, and in my opinion Ramallah Hostel has been by far the best one.
- Emad (9/5): Superb -
- Jean (10/5): Amazing stay! - Amazing accomodation, great people, ideal location, I would highly recommend this place.
- Francesca (10/5): Beyond expectations! - The location is great, and the building is exceptionally clean with all facilities included and available: well working wifi, all kitchen appliances (even two different coffee machines!) washing machine, AC conditioner, multiple bathrooms well kept, clean carpets, couches and nice chairs all over the place to relax! beds are comfortable and fresh towels and sheets with blankets are available together with lockers and locks for the most forgetful ones! value for price is absolutely perfect.
Taher and his family really go beyond expectations!
From providing you with all indications to reach th Hostel villas with ease, and accompany you, explaining about the area, the history and life in the city, as well as local tips and events for the night life and concerts.
You can warm up yourself under the sun in the garden around, some couch and sofa in the outside patios and terrace, relax in the main living room or eat and learn as much as you wish about the local life also joining one group or the owners taking you out for breakfast in the weekend :)
Amazing, wonderful place. I felt at home all the time. Thank you. Really nothing to say!
- Ulrich (10/5): Very nice and clean hostel with very helpful host. - The hostel is situated right in the centre of Ramallah just a couple of minutes from the bus terminal. The house is in a street where traffic has no access what makes it very quiet, so the location is pretty much perfect.
We really loved the interior. Everything was clean and new. There are enough showers and toilets, there is a big kitchen and 2 balconies, one with morning sun and one with afternoon sun. We could use the washing machine for free and there was complimentary coffee and tea.
The hostel owner was very helpful! He gave us a lot of information about where to go and what to do.
I shouldn't have to write this but as I know the media coverage of the area: we felt completely save and welcome in Ramallah by everybody!
- Iman (9/5): Superb - everything was perfect, it was clean, quiet, a walking distance to everything and the host was very helpful. I don’t have anything bad to say.
- Mona (10/5): Exceptional - Shayeb is very kind, welcoming and helpful. The hostel was full and he found be a private room as a solution. He went with me to show me the place where I can take transport in the morning. Thank you for everything 🙂
The room was perfect 👌 Nothing
