At Viajero Hostels, we strive to be your sustainable accommodation.
At Viajero Hostels, we understand sustainability as a way of operating and growing with consistency, driving decisions that generate measurable environmental and social impact in every destination. We work to reduce our footprint, strengthen local economies, and create responsible experiences that provide value to both travelers and communities. That is why our motto is: "Tourist? No, Viajero."
Our commitment is real: "How we travel does matter" to transform communities and ecosystems.
Support for local entrepreneurs and experiences.
We create deep bonds. We connect guests and travelers like you with authentic experiences in every country and city where we are located, supporting the local economy.
Commitment: Plastic-free hostels.
Drag
We protect what we love. We have achieved the elimination of single-use plastics in 70% of our hostels, and we provide free water dispensers to avoid thousands of PET bottles per year.

To educate is to transform. We launched the "Manual to be a good Viajero," a practical guide to teach how to reduce your carbon footprint on your next trips and respect cultural diversity in each of our destinations.
