About

Centrally located Tampere Dream Hostel is a neat, tastefully designed hostel run by a young, traveler-minded family. The brand new hostel is a blend of spotless premises, excellent value-for-money and international laid-back atmosphere. The Hoscar award winner hostel offers accommodation varying from private rooms to dormitories enhanced by all the modern comforts and hostel facilities to create an unforgettable stay in Tampere.

We offer you accommodation from a 2,3 and 4 bed private room to a bed place in a 4, 10 or 16 bed dormitory: a private room is an excellent choice for couples, small groups and families, whereas a dormitory room sheds more of a sincere backpacker's atmosphere for its dwellers. However, the new self-designed dormitory beds offer increased privacy for those who like to snuggle up in their own corner (besides being a good value for money!). Dormitory rooms are also a great choice to accommodate bigger groups (sport clubs, school groups etc), to whom we can offer breakfast and a spacious equipment storage, as well.

Sheets are included in all room types and towels can be rented for a nominal fee. Shower and bathroom facilities are located right next to the rooms. In addition there's a free Wi-Fi in the hostel area, laundry, luggage room, lockers and a sauna just around the corner. For entertainment we have books, magazines and board games for you and your fellow travelers, and in the fully equipped kitchen you can prepare your breakfast, cook your own gourmet dishes or just enjoy the free coffee and tea. All in all, it's the cozy and easygoing common area that forms the heart of the hostel.

Dream Hostel is located on street level near several well-known landmarks like Tampere Hall, Tampere University, Pakkahuone and Sorsapuisto park. Hostel's neighborhood area Tulli, together with Tammela, constitute the vivid heart of the city's urban culture and night life. Trendiest bars, local restaurants, outdoor market s, second hand stores, a grocery store and railway station are all within a few minutes' walk. If you wish to explore further we are here to help you!

We have all the services and facilities that any traveler could need, but no hostel is a good one without an excellent staff. We can, for sure, be extremely proud of ours. We hope that you like our premises, but we are amazed if you don't enjoy spending time with our hand-picked, warm-hearted crew. Being nice is one thing, but being a true professional with a city guide's know-how and an eternal twinkle in the eye is a totally different thing. We are here for you to create the stay of your dreams.

We hope to see you soon,

Ville, Eve and the Dream Hostel Staff

Came to Tampere for saunas for 3 nights with 2 girlfriends - had a room for 3 with bunk bed and a single. Very clean bed linen and comfortable mattresses. Plenty of shared showers and toilets - again all clean - hairdryers provided in showers. Fabulous kitchen area, good WiFi and a really great location close to bus stops, restaurants etc. The staff were really helpful and friendly - would definitely stay again and thoroughly recommend.

This particular induction hob deffo had deep personal hatred towards me ! (Or maybe it was trying to be helpful and make me lose weight...?) Kitchen rags stink (obviously not changed. daily as they should). Some of the showers are rubbish. No drying space for your knickers that your wash at night. (No, I am not going going to save the umpteen of them till I get round to do the big wash with the machine.) Otherwise a great place to stay !
