Auberge de Jeunesse de Namur - Hostel

Extremely welcoming staff, nice quiet room, nice simple breakfast

Our arrival at the hostel was delayed but we called and were happy that they waited for us to check in. That done, we went to the room and one of the rooms had a horrible smell of sewage. We went back to the reception to complain and the guy said it was because the room was closed for a long and make the water run the smell disappear, which did not happen. We came back to him and he said that the hostel was full and that he couldn't do anything (??). We insisted already that this problem would need to be solved. At this point, the conversation was getting hot. So, he went to the room to see (smell) what we were complaining about. He was very unfriendly, completely different from that guy who was in the reception making jokes and laughing when we checked in. At the end he offered us another room. In the morning, there was no water available in the bathrooms, showers, or to make coffee in the restaurant. There was a problem with a leak, which at the end of the day we saw that it had been resolved. The hostel is average. Rooms are OK. Good reception and restaurant. But the first impression was bad.

I was a solo traveller and enjoyed my stay here. The staff were very friendly, informative and co-operative. I was enabled to have as much privacy as required by me, but there were also areas for social engagement with other guests, had I so wanted. The building was exceptionally quiet post 9pm, which suited. Surprising as the hostel was (nearly?) full on the first night. The room I stayed in was very clean, including the towel offered and bed linen. The room was fresh and airy. The breakfast was wholesome Continental and something to look forward to starting the day. The location is over a mile away from the town's shopping area, again which suited, as I prefer to gradually engage with more populated areas. The main part of this walk is beside the river and is pleasant. There is an infrequent (hourly?) bus service from the train station stopping nearby, which I didn't use. I particularly enjoyed resting in the common balcony area in the evenings. This is a semi-open area located just above the front door and overlooks the river. It was also kept clean. I felt very safe throughout, which is very important as a solo traveller. I would certainly stay in this hostel again, should I go again to Namur.

The room was clean and basic. You got a nice breakfast too. Views by the river in the city are excellent.

Surprisingly pleasant, secure for a last minute hostel we ended up w. Even had secure garage type luggage storage. Trustworthy. Beautiful river stroll, hostel just located across from river. Usual for hostels: given clean sheets to make beds, rented towels, self help to throw in basket afterwards. Quadruple had 2 bunk beds, spacious for family. Shower ok. Wish had private toilet too. Have to remember to bring own soap next time. Sorry to miss brekfst provided. Early departure.

I cannot understand why you can only check in from 4 PM if the check out is at 10 AM... this is not fair... With the money you save versus choosing a hotel in the city center you actually end up paying on the transportation, so you could save yourself the trouble and book a hotel in the city center.

Das Gebäude befindet sich so gut wie direkt am Wasser. Man kann nicht wirklich sagen, dass es Verkehr in der Strasse gibt. Es ist unweit vom Stadtzentrum (dahin kann man laufen). Die Jugendherberg ist sehr gut gepflegt. Die Einrichtung ist basic wie man sie aus Jugenherbergen kennt aber aus guter Qualität (z.B Matratze). Das Personal ist sehr nett und kümmert sich einfach. Das Früstücksbuffet zeigt es auch. Ich fand gut viele Produkte aus Wallonien auf den Tisch haben zu können. Eine Kuhmilchalternativ gab es auch. Ich finde, es lohnt sich mehr als eine Nacht dort zu bleiben :-)

Première nuit chambre 103. Bruit de chaudière constant >40dB. Impossible de fermer l’œil. Après réclamation autre chambre correcte. Si ce n’était l’excellent pti déj inclus le prix de 90 a 100€ la nuit pour 2 serait franchement excessif!

A/C fungerte ikke, så rommet ble grusomt varmt, og det var nesten umulig å sove.

Fint Hostel men vi havde forstået der var toilet til værelserne. Det var der ikke Rengøringsstandarten var ringe.

Personnel d accueil bien sympathique.

Rigtig godt vandrerhjem. Fin service ,flinke folk. Udmærket morgenbuffet til prisen. Dejligt med gratis parkering lige ude foran. Skøn beliggenhed. Det er jo ikke et fint hotel med mange stjerner, men man får, hvad man betaler for. Dog kom vi alle til at svede meget på gummimadrasserne og -hovedpuderne. Vi var bare på gennemrejse, men vi kunne godt finde på at komme igen for et par dage i den tilsyneladende dejlige by, Namur. Og så ville vi sandsynligvis vælge Auberge de Jeunesse igen.

Es war eine typische JHB, aber der nächtliche Lärm der anderen Gäste eine Katastrophe. Das Zimmer 00 neben der Tu3zum Zimmerflur war ätzend, die Tür wurde fast die ganze Nacht ständig geöffnet und geschlossen, das tut jedes Mal einen Schlag und man ist wieder wach.

Pour une auberge de jeunesse, le prix demandé est excessif! La chambre est très petite, les draps fournis en mauvais état et il n'y avait plus de serviettes de toilette disponibles. Le laveur de vitres nous a demandé de sortir de notre chambre à 9h!

Väldigt fint hotel

Namur est une ville plaisante à visiter, surtout la citadelle. Très belles photos à faire en étant en haut. En ce qui concerne l'auberge de jeunesse, les moins sont la propreté (toiles d'araignées dans la chambre), et l'accueil de la dame un peu froid. Les plus sont le prix, et surtout un super bon p'tit déj pour le prix. Le wifi qui fonctionne très bien aussi. Et l'emplacement de l'auberge qui est à environ 20 minutes du centre et de la citadelle. Je recommande cette auberge pour ceux qui ont envie de passer un bon moment pour pas trop cher à Namur.

Facile à trouver dans Namur Au bord du canal Au calme

Hyggeligt vandrehjem, GRATIS OG RIGTIG GOD morgenmad, meget venligt personale, god service, ligger virkeligt smukt. Vores værelse 4 køjesenge, håndvask og bad på værelset, et bord og en stol. Lidt langt til indkøb. Dog kan man sejle med en båd fra byen, Ca et kvarters gang derfra. Bus til station, Ca 10 gang derfra. Vil godt komme tilbage hertil.

Excellent accueil dans cette auberge de jeunesse très dynamique.

Simple et efficace pour un pied à terre rapide entre amis. Mais sûrement pas pour une nuit en amoureux. Personnel sympathique.
