Lagan Backpackers

Overall Rating

62 out of 72 HostelBookers customers said that they would recommend 'Lagan Backpackers'

Lagan Backpackers is the perfect place to explore and enjoy everything that Belfast has to offer. We have recently expanded into this new and spacious building as we have had great success with our sister hostel, Lagan Hostel.

Included in the price is a warm cooked breakfast sausage bacon egg beans and toast. Please note Breakfast is only between 8 and 10 no exceptions

Lagan Backpackers is simply a large house that has been converted into a Backpackers Hostel; and it is owned and run by a South African guy that knows what backpackers want. Our high ratings are mostly due to the great attention and recommendations that you can expect from both myself and my staff.

My idea for a great hostel is very simple: to make you feel at home. To give you a comfortable bed to sleep in, to keep the noise down after 11 to ensure a peaceful sleep and to make you feel so at home that you make new friends and enjoy Belfast as much as possible.

We provide advice on all tours of Northern Ireland, and will only recommend tours that we have personally experienced. We advise that our customers do not pre-book tours before visiting as we find that some tour operators overcharge and do not provide the level of customer satisfaction that we expect for our guests.
In addition to this Lagan Backpackers hostel is very friendly to single travellers, as we go the extra mile to make sure you enjoy your stay.

We are located minutes from the city center, the Lagan River and the picturesque Queens University campus; and mere moments away from the lively Botanic Avenue where there are many restaurants, shops, pubs and clubs for our customers to enjoy. Additionally, the Botanical Gardens that boast beautiful greenhouses and the famed Tropical Ravine is a short walk away, adjacent to the Ulster Museum.

Our staff are friendly and eager to help with any enquiries our customers have about which places to visit in the area, the history of Belfast, or even just the best pub to enjoy a pint of Guinness. We are on hand to provide personal recommendations for popular tourist attractions and tours of Northern Ireland, and are more than happy to organise and book these tours for our guests.
Lagan Backpackers has a very comfortable, relaxed atmosphere; as our main aim is to ensure our guests feel very much at home. We have full kitchen facilities and a cosy common area where people can eat, relax in front of the television or chat and make new friends.

Free tea and coffee for our guests throughout the day. There are also laundry services available for a small fee. Wireless internet is also available for a small fee. (please note that does not mean free wifi.)

We look forward to having you stay with us at Lagan Backpackers, where we will make your experience of Belfast a truly memorable one.

** Please be advised that although there is no curfew, non-hostel guests are not allowed upstairs. This is non-negotiable, as Lagan Backpackers needs to ensure the complete security and comfort of all of its guests.
