Hostels deserved better.
So we built it.
HostelPop began on the road.
Antoni and Dan met while traveling after years of staying in hostels around the world, and in Antoni's case, managing them too. From both sides of the desk, the same problem kept surfacing. Great hostels were being asked to give up more and more just to be seen.
Higher commissions. More marketing pressure. Less room to focus on quality.
So they started asking a simple question. What would an OTA look like if it actually respected hostels?
HostelPop is the answer.
A booking platform designed to be fair, quiet, and operationally invisible. Lower commissions, clean integrations, and no demand to change how hostels already run their business.
Because when hostels keep control of their margins and their time, everything else works better. For owners, staff, and travelers alike.
That's what we're building.
