Europe's Famous Hostels (EFH) is an association with a group of 50 independently run hostels all around Europe who group together to promote each other and create a community in the hostel world. The annual meeting is a work meeting where business from 2016 was analysed and discussed. After that, presentations and conversations took place and 2017 was planned. Alongside with this there was, as always, a lot of networking and some fun.
In the meeting three new members were accepted into EFH: Ostello Bello from Milan, Tattva Design Hostel from Porto and Stay Hostel from Rhodes.
They were selected because they have all the standards and characteristics to be a Famous Hostel member. They are award winning hostels, with premium locations, high ratings and reviews, well know among the Hostel community and they showed a lot of passion for the business and commitment for becoming a member of EFH. They are present in places EFH did not have a presence so now they become our Famous Hostel in their city!
