Property Description

Nottingham Backpackers Hostel, the Igloo, is proud to be the city's original stopover for backpackers and overseas jobseekers seeking rest and recuperation in a warm, clean, safe and friendly home-from-home full of history, good people and a great atmosphere.

We offer great value weekly rates for all job-seekers and students and always have long-termers here to keep you entertained : )

Set up in 1994, the city centre's hostel is still run by helpful and experienced backpackers and over the years we have welcomed
close to 50.000 people from all over the world.
Located in an historic Victorian building, we are surrounded by shops, pubs, eat-ins and take-outs, sights and sounds plus food shopping including a 24 hour supermarket, Victoria market and Tesco within 1-5 min walk.

Our facilities include a large fully equipped kitchen with free tea and coffee, a social lounge with free internet, T.V. and films, comfy beds with duvets, lockers in all rooms, laundry facilities and washrooms with 24 hour hot showers.
NEW - we will also be introducing one more social room with pool table, games, sofas, films and popcorn Aug/Sept 2007

If you are on the tourism trail for a few days and nights, we have free maps so you can find your way around, as well as leaflets with information on all the sights. - We will also point you in the direction of a good pint and excellent grub.

If you are looking for a place to spend the Summer and get some cash together for some more travelling, we are always happy to help with information and guidance on finding work of which there is plenty up for grabs in Nottingham.

The city also offers lots of great live music, cultural events and of course Mr. Robin Hood (!!!)

Open all day all year until 3 a.m., the Igloo offers no chores or heavy rules - just a chance to meet some friendly people and get a good night's sleep at the end of an active day.
If you're ever in town, pay us a visit..... :)

Directions

Walk - from the T.I.C at Market Square, head for Clumber St and walk straight on for 10 min past the Victoria Shopping Centre to the Golden Fleece pub on your left. We are the house diagonally opposite on the corner of Mansfield Road and Fulforth Street.
Our front door is red and entry is on the side of the building.

Bus and Train Stations are 18-20 minutes by foot and easy to walk. However, if you have lots of luggage, you can catch a tram from the Train Station (Station Street) - pay the conductor £1.40 and get off at the 4th stop by the University on Goldsmith St. Walk up the road, take the second right (Peel Street) and follow to the end where you hit Mansfield Road.
We are the house on the corner behind the trees.
The walks takes 5 - 6 minutes. Download our map when you get your booking confirmation.

From the airport you should catch the Skylink bus to Friar Lane off Market Square. Diagonally cross over the Square and you will see the Information Centre. We are 10 minutes on foot from there (See directions above.)
