I LOVE THIS HOSTEL! Such homely, welcoming vibes and a great place to just chill and hang out. The people that work here are all work away volunteers so, being travellers themselves, they are super easy to talk to. Amazing sense of community. Made some really great connections here and will definitely be coming back if I come through Thessaloniki again! Thank you Costa and everyone else!

Arabas Studios is a unique and special hostel. After 8 years on the road and almost 30 countries visited, Thessaloniki has turned into one of my favourite cities largely thanks to the experiences that I've had at Arabas Studios. The atmosphere, sense of community and openness of the staff and guests I found at Arabas is not something I've found at many other hostels. Arabas has turned into my home away from home (I've been 4 times in the last few years). I think I will always continue visiting this hostel. The people I have met through this hostel have become friends I'll keep for life. The owner of this hostel, Kosta, is one of the most genuine, compassionate and caring people I have ever met. It is easy to tell that Kosta loves his hostel and all the travelers he meets. Whether you meet for one month, one week or one hour, Kosta treats all his guests like they are family and this type of treatment is what makes his hostel special. This is what makes Greece special and Kosta highlights this perfectly. You could stay in another hostel in Thessaloniki but I am certain you will be missing out on something that will turn into a highlight of your trip. The fellow travelers, the volunteer workers, the local musicians that come to hangout here, the one-of-a-kind owner are part of what make this place a "can't miss". If you're a young or old traveler looking for an authentic experience in Greece, I can't recommend this hostel enough. Honestly, a couple nights here and I think you will see why I keep returning to Thessaloniki and to Arabas studios. Maybe I will see you there! I am already planning another trip back :)

Rooms, I had a bunk bed in a 4-shared room, it's exactly as you would expect from a shared room. Own shower and toilet attached. I can only speak for my experience though, and my pillow was the lumpiest pillow I've ever slept on. I think they bought pillows when they started the business and never replaced them even once. The service was top notch, but your milage may vary as most of the staff are there for only a few weeks to a few months. Location is up a long hill, it's quite a hike. It's steep, not so steep that it's too difficult, just really exhausting. And I'm young, imagine old people. Literally no parking from what I could see, maybe you could get lucky.

I spent one night at the Arabas Studios. I booked it last minute since it was not planned that I would stay in Thessaloniki for the night. I booked a private room with bathroom and a small kitchen. The price was more than affordable and the cleaning was impeccable. Even if we only met for a very short time, the staff was lovely and available. They suggested me a nice tour of the city and booked me a taxi for the next day. If I ever come back to Thessaloniki, I'm more than probable to book a studio there again.
