Close to the Portici-Ercolano station and some great cheap restaurants and cafes. Easy to speak with the reception staff. Large common areas and very good value for money.

I would recommend to stay in this hostel to do everything in Naples, Pompei, Sorrento and Amalfi, since the metro station and train station is 10 min for there. It's also 10 minutes from the ancient city of Herculaneum, in Ercolano, quiet place without tourists, with a lot of family shops, cheap pizza or sea fruits. In itself, the hostel is a pearl : a friendly house with two terraces, one patio, a large and fully equiped kitchen, a bar, not a big factory/hostel, intimate atmosphere with a staff always available, very good human beings. And it's 5 min from the beach !!

Very cute and lovely hostel! the building in itself is beautiful and very charming, located in the center of Salerno. The rooms are clean, with a lot of space, there is a common living room area, a kitchen and a terrace. The owners are super nice and create a very welcoming and family like atmosphere in the hostel. It's a perfect place if you want to meet other people. And not to forget the very cute hostel cat Coro who loves to play with everyone (the real boss of this place)! We would definitely come back there!!

All hostels in Positano

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

This is my second time staying in Hostel Brikette- the first being in 2022. I truly loved the cleanliness, friendly staff and views from the beautiful room! I stayed in the female-only room which had a shower, two toilets, and two sinks connected to the room, along with gorgeous terrace views. I instantly made friends with the girls in my room!

Amazing people, we got a plenty of tips about our stay. Greatest views ever from a hostel. Attention to details design-wise and regarding technicalities. We visited the double room with a balcony available beside the dormitory rooms and had a great hotel-like private experience with the benefits of more fun hostel vibes.

Hostel brikette is in a great location in Positano, right near the bus stops which take you into the town, as well as too and from Sorrento. The rooms are clean and comfortable and contain good air conditioning. It was great that the rooms were cleaned each day!
