Room types

Green River Hostel offers two room options for different kinds of trips: a 20 m² Family Double Room for up to four people, and one bed in an 18 m² six-bed mixed shared room. The first has a private bathroom and a flat-screen TV; the second stands out for its balcony with mountain, river and landmark views. The main layout of the family room includes two single beds and one double bed, while the shared option has a bunk bed.

Both include a seating area and bed linen, but offer different levels of privacy. The family room accommodates more people in a private space, while the shared room provides one individual bed and the added appeal of a balcony. Your choice depends on whether you prioritise a private bathroom and space for a group, or views from the bedroom.
