Overview
On a backpacker budget, a breakfast you don't have to go out and find is worth a lot. The Madrassa Hostel serves a continental breakfast on site every day, and its Wi-Fi is free throughout, which covers two of the questions most hostel guests ask first.
The rest of the appeal is social. The hostel has communal spaces for hanging out with other travellers, and it sits in the historic centre, close to the souks, local restaurants and the main sights.
Highlights
- Continental breakfast served daily
- Free Wi-Fi throughout
- Communal areas for meeting other guests
- Central location in the historic heart of the city
Location
The hostel describes itself as being in the heart of the Medina, close to the souks, but doesn't give an address or name a quarter. Look at the map on this page to see how far it is from Jemaa el-Fna before you book, and ask for directions in advance.
Good to know
- The name borrows from the city's historic Koranic schools, such as the Ben Youssef Madrasa, but the listing doesn't say the hostel is next to one.
