I am regularly in Leipzig for training courses and always stay in the same accommodation. I like the old one and that's why I like coming here to the Blauen Stern Hostel. Olivia is also very nice and always has an open ear if something is needed. I can recommend anyone who is in Leipzig and likes Ostalgie to stop at this hostel. :-)

We stayed at the hotel for 2 nights and we really liked it. Very pleasant service, beautifully clean, quiet at night. The hostel simply has a soul.The location is wonderful, right next to the tram stop. Available shops, restaurants, cafes and a bar are within walking distance, and the surrounding area offers the opportunity to take a nice walk even during the day. Even though the hostel is actually in the middle of the city and all the action, inside in the courtyard there is a beautiful calm and a pleasant place to sit.

Olivia is a very trustworthy and welcoming owner. As a non-profit association in the field of art and culture, we have been working with her since 2017 and are very satisfied with the hostel, which has also been confirmed by the positive feedback of over 100 artists and guests at our events over the years. The hostel definitely has its unique charm and is in a great location with good public transport connections.

Unfortunately we can no longer recommend this place.The room was clean, but with every step the floor creaks so much that it can be heard throughout the house. Bed right next to the room door. Mattresses very, very hard and rubbed down (surface falling apart). Extremely loud in the house due to long-term hostel residents. Unable to sleep, forced to shower, constant running, doors slamming even at night. In the end the water was COLD when showering while someone tried to get into the bathroom several times. NO response from the owner as she cannot be reached by phone or in person. There are no employees. Therefore left early after two nights.

Very cozy hostel. It has a cozy yard with landscaping and a swing. The hostess of the hostel is Olivia, a very sensitive and sincere woman. I thank fate for bringing me here. Thank you, Olivia, for giving us a roof over our heads and just being a friend, a real friend! Nearby is a bus stop, a large grocery store, several hairdressers, a shoe and clothing store, a flower shop, a pharmacy, a store of household chemicals, cosmetics, etc. ...
