Lagan Hostel

About Lagan Hostel

As we are new to Hostelworld(feel free to check out our ratings on hostelbookers) and have no ratings on here yet I dropped the prices for the next two weeks in the hope of bookings that could lead to ratings. Check out our new low prices!!!

Lagan Hostel is simply a house that has been converted into a Backpackers Hostel; and it is owned and run by a South African guy that knows what backpackers want. Our high ratings on all other sites are mostly due to the great attention and recommendations that you can expect from both myself and my staff.

My idea for a great hostel is very simple: to make you feel at home. To give you a comfortable bed to sleep in, to keep the noise down after eleven to ensure a peaceful sleep and to make you feel at home.

We provide advice on all tours of Northern Ireland, and will only recommend tours that we have personally experienced. We advise that our customers do not pre-book tours before visiting as we find that some tour operators overcharge and do not provide the level of customer satisfaction that we expect for our guests.
In addition to this both Lagan Hostel and Lagan Backpackers hostel are very friendly to single travellers, as we go the extra mile to make sure you enjoy your stay.


We are located minutes from the City Centre, the Lagan River and the picturesque Queens University campus; and mere moments away from the lively Botanic Avenue where there are many restaurants, shops, pubs and clubs for our customers to enjoy. Additionally, the Botanical Gardens that boast beautiful greenhouses and the famed Tropical Ravine is a short walk away, adjacent to the Ulster Museum.

Our staff are friendly and eager to help with any enquiries our customers have about which places to visit in the area, the history of Belfast, or even just the best pub to enjoy a pint of Guinness. We are on hand to provide personal recommendations for popular tourist attractions and tours of Northern Ireland, and are more than happy to organise and book these tours for our guests.
Lagan Hostel has a very comfortable, relaxed atmosphere; as our main aim is to ensure our guests feel very much at home. We have full kitchen facilities and a cosy common area where people can eat, relax in front of the television or chat and make new friends.

We provide a free breakfast of toast and cereals from 8am - 10am every morning, and free tea and coffee for our guests throughout the day. There are also laundry services available for a small fee.
Free breakfast included


We look forward to having you stay with us at Lagan Hostel, where we will make your experience of Belfast a truly memorable one.
