Let’s get your hostel listed to educate on hosteling in the USA, drive direct bookings, and celebrate fun hostels everywhere. Hosteling.US is a website built exclusively for hostels in the United States.

How it works:

  • $300/year

    Including taxes and fees

  • We invite your hostel to join us at Hosteling.US!

    Here's what we provide with a customized plan to showcase the unique features of your hostel:

    • 6 Listing Photos

    • An Optimized Description telling your best story

    • Featured in Two Search Categories

    • Four Icons highlighting your Amenities

    • Three Direct Booking links to your site

    • Social Media Posts showcasing your hostel and categories

    • Blog Posts featuring your hostel & reasons why travelers should choose your hostel

    • Opportunities for Newsletter Hostel Spotlights

    Additional perks for Hosteling.US hostel teams include:

    • Discounts for The Gathering

    • Exclusive Deals for support services from The Hostel Collective

    • Tailored communications to boost direct bookings

  • Listed hostels receive 10% off the total for the annual Gathering, and half off tickets for any additional team members - and you don’t want to miss it! This annual conference is built specifically for hostel owners and managers, new and old, to grow and connect.

  • We are setting a new standard for American hostels, and spoiler: it’s awesome. Hostels must carry an average 4-star or above rating on Hostelworld, Booking.com, or TripAdvisor to be listed.

    Please reach out if you are a new hostel.

    Sound like you? Let’s talk!

We believe that hosteling is for everyone - and that it is just as epic in the United States as every other country in the world. While OTA booking sites traditionally focus on hostels outside of the USA, it’s our goal to change the stereotype around American hosteling, and creating our own platform to promote direct bookings for USA hostels. The Hostel Collective was created by USA hostel owners and managers for USA hostel owners and managers.

FAQ’S

  • We’d be sad, of course, but you can. We do ask that all hostels commit to one year before cancelling. After a year, if you’re not happy, we will cancel your membership.

  • Yes, of course! You always have a direct line of communication with us, and once we set up your listing, you can request updates at any time!

  • Let’s change that! If you need branding services, like photos, copywriting, or hostel marketing tools, please email us!

  • Social media, paid advertising, and email marketing! We are serious about making USA Hosteling the best of the best, and that starts with promoting your hostels!
