BOOK SAFELY THROUGH OUR WEBSITE
You can now make a reservation directly through our website. We guarantee low prices, no commission, the option of free cancellation up to 48 hours before the arrival date (standard reservation until 12:00), and most importantly – you can pay however you prefer: by card or bank transfer.
Large booking platforms charge you between 10% and 20% commission. This money does not stay in your pocket nor does it go to us. As a result, you pay more, and the hostel earns less.
Thank you very much if you choose to book through our website! See you at Chillout Hostel!
