Overview

Welcome to The Purple House International Backpackers' Hostel, the original authentic travellers hostel located in the second largest city in Panama, David City. We are very proud to be celebrating our 9th year of successful operation and to have welcomed over 21,000 satisfied international travellers over that period of time!

The Purple House is a fun hostel and a great place to meet other travellers. It's homey, with friendly staff, and it's very clean and comfortable because it is owned by experienced travellers who know what other travellers are looking for! Our theme is purple, and most guests are surprised to see just how many things we have managed to find in the color purple!
