Between the ferry and the city, this HI hostel is well placed for coming and going. It’s a neat place with good lockers, spacious dorms (no more than four bunks) and a mini-fridge in each room...
If you’re looking for a place to drop your bags and head out to party, then you’ve found it. In the thick of the Punavuori area, it’s a social spot with a large drawing room that doubles as a basic kitchen where free coffee is always brewing...
A 10-minute tram ride from town, this HI hostel is actually part of the Olympic Stadium and has a slightly institutional feel. Dorms have a maximum of 12 beds, but they’re quite roomy with small tables at the centre...
Handy for an early ferry, this HI-affiliate offers both backpacker and hotel rooms. Hotel rooms are newer and with TVs, but both rooms share bathrooms and you can start the day with a sauna...
Tampere’s only hostel is right opposite the cathedral and fills up fast...
Definitely not a student share-house, this super-clean spot is packed with features (pool, sauna and wi-fi) and cheery staff with tips on exploring the city. Traditional rooms are older, but still have great additions like bar fridge and bathroom...
There have been a few cosmetic changes at this place, though rooms remain comfortable, if unexceptional, and it’s still handy for the trains. It’s tough to find because it’s set above shops but look for an entrance on Käsityöläiskatu.
