Are hostel prices per person or per room?

Hostel prices on HostelWorld.com are typically listed per person. This pricing structure reflects the nature of most hostels, where guests often share rooms with multiple occupants, commonly referred to as dormitory-style accommodations. The cost per person allows travelers to book beds in shared dormitories or private rooms, depending on their preferences and the availability of the accommodation. When searching for hostels, users may come across both shared and private room options. It is important to pay attention to the details provided on the booking page, as prices for private rooms may be higher than those for beds in a shared dormitory. For further clarification on specific properties or pricing, it may be helpful to refer to the current web page where you can find additional information about each hostel's offerings.
