Arriba Hostel Reviews

Arriba is definately one of the best hostels ive ever stayed in. the staff is amazing!! they do their best to make you at home. they are in a great location and very easy to get to old town. have fun...relax and go to the roof top deck for fun. talk to dardo, juan and marco (and federico if he's there). they r the best!!!!!!!

I've stayed in quite a few hostels but none have been as good as this one! Located in a very safe area it is within walking distance from anything you'd need. The best thing about this hostel is the staff! The were were so helpful and welcoming, came with us on nights outorganized a BBQ for us on the roof and even brought us to a football match! Can't recommend it enough, Mario and the guys are a great laugh, just go and stay there you won't regret it! From Daniel (Ireland) 28th April- 1st May

Really nice hostel, great staff! The only problem is the location- quite a distance from the center!

Arriba hostel is the best! My time there was amazing, great staff, great location and the best energy from the all the people there!! The owners and the whole crew there were very friendly and ready to help with anything, allways with a big smile!!! THANKS A LOT ARRIBA!!!! CAN´T WAIT TO GET BACK THERE!!!! Grandes hermanos Dardo, Fernando, Juanchi & Mariolo!!!

A fantastic hostel, one of the best ones I've been to: the hostel staff is very, very friendly and helpful. Though it was low season I still met interesting co-travelers to talk to. The location (note: it's not in the Centre, but in Pocitos) was ideal for me as I wanted to stay away from the Old Town this time. Anyway the transport to the centre is quite good and you are just 2 blocks away from the riverside rambla to walk, run or go beaching in summer!

One of the best places I have stayed in on my 3 week trip. Very homely feel in the place, great staff, perfect location for the beach and some nice bars around. Only possibly thing to say is the bathroom situation can get a little frustrating,

I was only going to stay for 2 nights here and ended up staying an entire week. I met amazing people, both staff and guests. As cheesy as it sounds, it felt like one big family. Everything was very clean, and the staff were extremely helpful and accessible. They went above and beyond to make everyone comfortable. I have stayed in tons of hostels, and I can honestly say that this was the best one. I can't think of a single bad thing to say about it.

This hostel is out of the old city but close to the beaches. The staff are lovely, but the hostel is lacking in some aspects. It needs more bathrooms, 3 is not enough and could benefit from a chill out area that is not the TV room. Breakfast is good and it is very secure.

LOVE this hostel! One sign of a good hostel is when you know everyone staying there, and another is when you cannot tell the difference between the staff and guests! This place is so friendly - the staff hang out in the hostel and are very accommodating. It felt more like staying in a flat than a hostel. The roof terrace is good, they put on a great barbeque. The only drawback is that I found myself waiting for the bathroom a bit. But I would definitely recommend and stay here again.

One of the best hostels with a very nice and friendly staff. When I arrived early in the morning, they provided me bed to take a nap - for free! First time in the whole my trip. They were always eager to help and in a good mood. The only one disadvantage of this hostel - too many mosquitos in the night.

The best hostel in Montevideo!

We loved this hostel! The staff was very kind and did their best to make it a pleasant stay for us. The atmosphere was really nice and friendly and close to the beach!

Really nice hostel with excellent persons that will help you for any situation!!

Everything is awesome! Wish I could stay longer!
