What an amazing place this hostel and Pridnestrovie is! Every step from booking to arriving and leaving was managed by the wonderful owner Dmitri and I really had the best time. The hostel (more like a AirBnb/hotel!) is decorated ever so well and kept in top notch condition (clean and well-stocked). I luckily had the full place to myself while staying overnight, but even with guests in the other two rooms this place would remain roomy, cosy and comfortable. I felt a part of the community staying here and it's as authentic an experience as it gets. Thank you for hosting me Dmitri, staying here and coming on the fantastic tour of Pridnestrovie was an unforgettable experience!

great location, great contact with a very nice owner who is helpful in many things and always advises a good place to eat or see or buy souvenirs. You can also take advantage of the possibility of trips and immediate arrival from the airport for a small fee. The apartment is renovated, has a well-equipped kitchen and bathroom. The rooms are spacious and well-decorated. You can't hear residents from other apartments.

Everything was really good.

The property was very clean, thematically decorated, well renovated and warm. It had an accessible clean and nice kitchen and a washing machine.

As someone travelling alone in Pridnestrovie for the first time, I felt so comfortable and at home in the hostel. The owner, Dmitri, was very helpful in recommending places to visit and in helping me to make some kind of sense of the country. I think that for the kind of traveller who would visit Tiraspol, the hostel is ideal. The hostel rooms are those of a flat in one of the typical Soviet apartment blocks - so for me just staying there was an experience :)

Best owner ever! He was very friendly and gave me lots of useful advice on what to see and how to get around Tiraspol and the surrounding area. The house is really new and very clean. The room I stayed in had a cute little balcony! I will definitely come back to Dmitrti!

Negative- —The hostel currently has no business sign on the building, so you are not sure if you are in the right place or not. I am told the sign was vandalized and a new one sign has been ordered and will be installed soon —It is on floor three of walk-up residential building - there is no elevator —Had only one pillow was on the bed. I could have used two. I am sure if I asked for another one he would have given it to me with no problem.

Positive- —It is called a hostel, but in reality, it is almost a hotel. There are only individual rooms and no group sleeping arrangements anymore (and no bunk beds) —The hostel is very centrally located. Although you enter through the back of the building on an ally, the building is located on a main street (Lenin Street). And it is just one block away from the main street of Tiraspol, 25 October Street. The are lots of shops, eating places, and banks for currency conversions just five minute walk away. Everything you want to see in this small city is only a 5-15 minute walk away from this hostel. —There are only a few rooms. You will not be sharing the hostel with many other guests —The owner/manager is extremely helpful with everything! I arrived two hours earlier than expected and upon notifying him, he came by and gave me the keys and information to check-in early. He even arranged a local taxi to take me to Chisinau Airport for a cheap “locals” price. I cannot emphasize how helpful the owner/manger was to my stay —The owner/manager is very personable and upbeat in nature. All your dealings will be with him —There was good water pressure —There was no problem with hot water. Being that the main steam (water) heating plant is close by, I don’t think you could run out of hot water if you tried. —The WiFi was great! —I visited in November and it was freezing outside. The hostel was surprisingly very warm inside. It is next to a main steam generating plant that all the area buildings use for heat. —The owner/manager is also a licensed tour guide. He can be hired directly to give a 2-3 hour walking tour at a very reasonable price —There is a full kitchen, although let’s face it - with food so cheap in this country, why eat in? —I loved the authentic feel of the place. This is not a bland hotel chain with bland surroundings. You will be living as a local which I love! If you want a Hyatt experience, stay at a Hyatt (and pay Hyatt prices).

Nothing, everythig was perfect.

It's not my first time in this place and definitely not the last one! Dima, the owner, is an amazing person with exceptional knowledge about Transnistria region - if you're a curious traveler and want to learn about history and culture, he's the best person you can find and talk to. See you again during my next visit!

Nothing! The Best place in Tiraspol to stay short or long term. I would come back and stay at Lenin Street Hostel & Tours again next year. Please pay attention on your arrival time and inform hostel before. They meet people in person for check-in. It is super friendly so do cooperate and respect their time!

If you’re heading to Tiraspol and looking for a place that feels like a home away from home, Lenin Street Hostel & Tours is the ultimate choice. Its prime central location makes it a perfect base for exploring the city, with plenty of shops and supermarkets nearby to cater to all your needs. The place had a VERY FRESH RENOVATION finished in October 2024! ALL BRAND NEW! One thing that sets this hostel apart is its cleanliness. Compared to other options in the area (including one located in a less-than-ideal spot near a hospital ditch), Lenin Street Hostel truly stands out. The facilities are spotless and well-maintained, providing a comfortable and pleasant environment. The real gem here, though, is Dmitri, the incredibly knowledgeable and welcoming host. He doesn’t just give tips—he goes the extra mile, offering guided tours around Transnistria that are packed with fascinating history and insights. As a professional photographer, I found Dmitri’s guidance invaluable. He knows every hidden corner of his homeland and shared locations that were absolutely perfect for capturing stunning shots. Dmitri’s hospitality goes beyond the usual hostel experience. He even invited me to his own home to meet his friends, making me feel like a part of the local community. His passion for his country and his genuine care for his guests are truly remarkable. The area is also incredibly safe, even late at night, so you can explore with peace of mind. For those traveling from Chisinau, Dmitri can organize transfers to and from the city, making the journey hassle-free. In summary, Lenin Street Hostel & Tours is more than just a place to stay—it’s an experience. With its central location, impeccable cleanliness, and Dmitri’s unmatched hospitality and expertise, I can’t recommend it enough. Whether you’re a casual traveler or a professional photographer like me, this hostel will make your time in Tiraspol unforgettable.

The host was very helpful and understanding. Gave me the locations of cafes and restaurants close by. I could plan my day and save time for a trip to Bendery!

Excellent Service and Perfect Location! I had a wonderful stay at this hostel in Tiraspol! The service was excellent. I was comfortable.

Highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Tiraspol!

I really liked the location and the cleanness of the hostel. The host Dmitri is as welcoming and hospitable as always! I enjoyed the service and the kitchen. I found everything I needed for a coffee in the morning and hot tea after a walk in the the fresh air. Taking in the sights and meeting the locals.

Really great host and location- directly in the City center. We would recommend to do the guided tour with Julia. She showed us around Tiraspol which was a really great experience.

The hostel and the host have met and succeeded my expectations! The lovely spot on the balcony has become even cozier and extra blankets were super useful this time of the season, although there was an air conditioner. The host Dimitri is a thoughtful and attentive guy, he gave me a hand cream for my dry hands, because I forgot to take mine with me. Grateful for the high quality service! Highly recommend this hostel!

Make sure to screenshot/download all the instructions before you enter the land because you will not find the spot without them.

It is freshly renovated, perfectly clean, nice location.

The location was perfect, close to cafes and shops. Very nicely renovated hostel with all the amenities one might need. Clean bathroom and comfortable sofa bed. We had an amazing time during our stay. Dmitri was very accommodating, gave us recommendations and advice on what to see, where to eat. He showed us around and spoke perfect English so we were all able to understand each other very well. I would recommend this hostel to anyone traveling to Tiraspol.

The best hostel we've ever stayed in! The atmosphere is wonderful, and everything is clean and comfortable at every step. The kitchen is fully equipped, so you can easily prepare breakfast or a snack. The location is very convenient — right in the center, with all the main attractions within walking distance. Dmitry, the hostel owner, is friendly and always ready to offer advice and recommendations. For those who value the balance between price and quality, this is the perfect choice. We were absolutely thrilled and will definitely be coming back!

I was planning this trip a long time and if you are like me planning a trip yourself, here are some of my must go places: -Soviet Canteen in Tiraspol and Bendery -Tiraspol City Center -The Catherine II park in the evening The hostel I was staying in, has the perfect location, 5-10 min walk to the city center. I really appreciated the cosy and quiet neighborhood and the coffee spot "Espresso room", which was just around the corner and at least 4 different coffee spots and cafes in the area. All close by, 1 min walk. When I arrived, Dimitri, the host was so generous with his time, he welcomed me, explained all the rules, helped me find the adapter for my phone charger. He showed me my room, it was exactly like in the picture, but even better. I was so happy with it. Everything was so clean and comfortable and the bed was high-quality. The bathroom was so nice and the shower has a good water pressure. The balcony has a lovely spot with chairs and a table. I had my breakfast there, enjoying the quiet morning, feeling kind of at home) Next day Dimitri offered a free walking tour to the city center and we set to meet up in an hour. I knew a bit about the city, but there were some unexpected interesting details which Dimitri shared and they left me shook! I will defiantly come back for the the full tour of the country!

The hostel was unmarked and hard to find, only accessible by meeting the owner at a set time. With no signs inside or outside, its legality seemed questionable. The owner refused Moldovan currency despite accepting euros and could have easily exchanged it to Transnistrian Rubels. He even tried to charge extra for a bed already in our room. We felt uncomfortable the entire stay and couldn’t wait to leave.

Very naughty owner. We firstly give 8.0 here on Booking but with note that we didn`t trust this owner, because he seemed wierd to us. Then he start to write me messages with threat (!!) and demands to remove opinion. I spoke to booking. com and they send he a form to change opinion and make it worse, so here we go. I never saw such a bad owner behaviour and we have been in dozens of countries. Be very carefull with him. This is a region far from EU and as a tourist surely you don`t wont a hostel owner with who you feel uncertain. Also it`s a cheap city, better pay more and go somewhere else. Also please note out they accepted payment only in Rubles in cash- not a big problem but be cautious of this because our Visas and Mastercards didn`t work there.

Room was Ok, same as on photos. Location is reachable from city center. They communicate in english.
