I was only here for the night, but I was extremely impressed by the room. I was with a group of fifteen, and 8 girls stayed comfortably in one room. The place is beautiful, with a nice courtyard and a fantastic pool area. It's very near to one of the central squares of Granada, but is far enough away that... More

I stayed in the Backpackers Inn for one night. The dorms are really big though and the beds are comfy. I wanted to stay longer than one night but then there was nobody but a couple staying there and I felt kinda lonely and scared at night. The location and the interieur of the hostel is really nice but a... More

We stayed here for 3 nights while in Granada. It was a great spot. The property is beautiful with a small pool to cool off in after a hot day of exploring the city. Breakfast was good and it's a short walk to Central Park. We loved Granada, with so many great restaurants and sights to see. I would highly... More

Made a second visit to Backpackers in January. Again, We loved it. Close to everything an so peaceful. Spent time every afternoon with a dip in their wonderful pool. Staff is there for you but they give you privacy at the same time. Very thoughtful staff that you can truly trust. Hope to visit again someday.

The Backpackers Inn is a beautiful new hotel in Granada offering dorm and private rooms. Avoid adding the breakfast to your room as it is very small, basic and not worth the money. The rooms are designed for air conditioning so no screens. Cost of aircon is $26 extra and the rooms are unbearably hot at night. Our room was... More

My partner and I stayed here for the last two nights of our trip to Nicaragua. It's definitely not like any backpacker's I've ever been to, in fact I don't think there are any dorm rooms.. It's more of a boutique hotel, and just what we were looking for, a bit of an indulgence in a nicer and a bit... More

I love this place -- one of the best hostels I've stayed in anywhere. The courtyards are beautiful, our room was spacious. I loved the pool. Oh yes, cooked breakfast is included. If you're looking for a party hostel, this may not be it, but if you're looking for a wonderful, peaceful place with a warm, helpful staff, this it.... More

Great place, friendly and very helpfull staff, this is the second time i have stayed here. Bit pricy for most backpackers so the name is a bit missleading but for a special "treat" it is the best. About 40 seconds walk from the main square, very clean, quiet and relaxing. Will come back here again.

This is so much more than just a hostel, it's a boutique hotel, an small luxury hotel for sure, you may never expect what you are about to find behind the doors. Friendly staff, excellent food (dont forget to taste gallo Pinto and order a cup of unsurpassable coffee). It has a very relaxing pool and the rooms are quite... More

The beautiful shared spaces are what make Backpacker's Inn so special. Leafy courtyards, patios, shaded bar and television areas. The rooms have high, dark, wood-beamed ceilings and the whole place has a dignified, slightly monastic feel: a refuge from the amplified music, dust and car horns of the Nicaraguan streets. Spotlessly clean, full kitchen, firm beds and lovely art and... More
