Brix Hostel

When we set out to design our hostel, we wanted to create more than just a place to sleep. The guest experience is at the heart of all we do here, and our international staff will do everything in their power to welcome you to the family and make sure your stay in Prague is totally unforgettable.
Our bar, chillout-lounge, and patio are the beating-heart of the hostel, the base from which guests form the memories of a lifetime. Don’t expect your regular hostel social spaces here. Our bar is the perfect spot to mingle with fellow-travelers and enjoy regular events, whether it be exhibitions by local artists, performances from our favourite local bands, or just flicking on a movie for a mellow Sunday evening. In the lounge you’ll find the perfect spot to relax on our comfy couches or enjoy the fastest free WiFi in Prague to keep in touch with home

Well I wouldn't call the people that work at the hostel as staff we are family. An international family from America, Spain, England, Slovakia, Ukraine and Australia. We have known each for many years and have been at the hostel since the very first day it opened. As one of our helpers we hope that you would come to think of us as extended family 😀. While in the process enjoying everything this great city has to offer.

Brix is a very chill hostel with really nice staff members. If your goal is to meet people, go in the summertime. In the low season it gets very quiet, we were only 3 volunteers most of my time here (in January) and the guest were mostly older men who didn't have anywhere else to stay, and not many young travelers. The working hours were often less than scheduled.

Eu não tenho palavras pra explicar minha experiência no Brix, Greg é uma pessoa incrivel, tudo pode ser conversado com ele, o hostel é ótimo e as minhas colegas foram maravilhosas! A ajuda semanal também era suficiente para o proposto. As tarefas são simples, fazer camas e ficar com o celular da recepção no turno da noite, o que torna a experiência ainda melhor por permitir conhecer a cidade. Um agradecimento especial a Svetlana, a pessoa mais amável que eu já conheci, e aos meninos da recepção pelas conversas e dicas <3

I have spent memorable time volunteering at Brix, that is an amazing place in Prag. The location of the hostel is great to discover some less touristic but highly interesting districts, but above all : this place offers a large variety of events all along the week.
Gregory as well as all the staff are very welcoming and helpful when needed.

Thanks a lot for this experience !

I joined w positive expectations, but my experience was extremely disappointing & concerning. I left early due to big safety/health concerns (break ins, stolen luggage, reports of bed bugs, shady guests), a working environment that made me feel uncomfortable (another volunteer made inappropriate comments I felt I couldn't report due to him being friends w the owner), & a lack of training that left me unprepared for my responsibilities. The room was awful, extremely small for 4 ppl & very uncomfortable beds. Location was ok but that's the only positive. I highly caution anyone before applying.

meu voluntariado no brix foi incrível! o hostel apesar de as vezes parecer meio caótico, tem um estilo único e vários eventos diferentes durante a semana. o responsável greg é muito gente boa, o staff é receptivo e as tarefas são super tranquilas, vc tem muito tempo pra conhecer praga. as meninas q estavam voluntariando comigo também ajudaram muito a tornar tudo melhor. super recomendo! 😁😁
