Tenby hostels

The popular seaside destination Tenby is not renowned for being suitable for budget travelers; however, choosing to stay in a hostel in Tenby instead of a hotel can help savvy budgeters to save considerable amounts of money. Given that the town is rather small, and visiting the surrounding areas can be difficult without public transport, hostel accommodations will also offer the distinct advantage of being able to meet fellow travelers so that you can easily arrange rideshares or explore the local attractions in groups.

Although there are many economy hotels and campgrounds in the town, the only official hostel in Tenby is located a short distance from the town center. The drive from the hostel—Yha Manorbier – Hostel—to the Tenby town center should take about 10m, and private parking is available on site. The advantage of this location is that it is particularly suitable for anyone looking for a peaceful stay and a chance to enjoy time in the countryside. Being right in the middle of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, guests staying at this hostel can enjoy beautiful walks along the coast, plus opportunities to bike, dive, and visit local beaches. The famous Manorbier Castle is also just a 20m walk along the cliff path from this hostel.

Opting for a hostel in Tenby is a great idea for larger groups of travelers wishing to stay together. Many other properties are smaller and do not offer rooms with multiple beds.

Groups that prefer to make their own meals will be able to make use of the large community kitchen, while the TV lounge and game room offer the chance to relax with your entire company or to meet other groups of travelers.
