Adult-Friendly New England Hostels

If you didn’t travel when you were younger, you might be regretting your decision. In your late teens and twenties, you can easily stay anywhere, sharing a dormitory-style hostel room with nine other people, making life-long friends as you go. It is cheap travel, but it is definitely designed for the young.

And now that those days are behind you, traveling means staying in expensive hotel rooms and resorts—right? Wrong. Believe it or not, there are many adult-friendly hostels that are popping up across the country and around the world, catering to the more discerning tastes of travelers in their late twenties and beyond. Some of these hostels are even family friendly.

Don’t believe us? Check out some of the New England hostels below and see for yourself how wonderful these options can be.
