The Experience

Each day we clean guest rooms and common areas to keep the hostel fresh and welcoming. This includes making beds, emptying bins, wiping surfaces, and cleaning bathrooms. We restock things like toilet paper, soap, and towels, and check if anything is broken or needs fixing. We also keep an eye on laundry, fold clean linens, and make sure everything looks neat for arriving guests.

I had a wonderful experience at the hostel, everyone was so kind and ready to help me. the tasks were not difficult and they were various so perfect for dynamic people (like me)!! I learned a lot of new things like staying behind a bar or refilling vending machines. the city is also beautiful and has a lot of things to visit and streets to explore. I enjoyed my stay so much that i wish i stayed longer

I feel very lucky that this was my first world packers experience. Fiona and all the staff were so kind. The tasks and hours are more than fair and reasonable. If you're on the bar you do need to speak a bit of German but there's someone always next to you on reception if you need help. Leipzig it's self is such a cool place, people says it's like Berlins little sibling and I agree. 10/10 fully recommend!! Thank you everyone from the hostel team.

After 2 months volunteering in the hostel, I can only say good things about my experience there All the personal working there, security and volunteers have been nice and friendly to me, even some of them became friends outside work. I always felt included and helped when needed, also listened when I asked for things related to schedules or tasks. Shifts & the weekly 3 free days were always respected by them. It is definitely a chance to learn German and meet people from all around the world, I highly recommend volunteer here. Leipzig is a city with such a young & nice vibe, I will come back!

I had a great time at the hostel. The tasks weren't explained very well by the team, but they have written standards for each one that you can easily read and follow — it's not hard at all. You also get 3 days off, which is perfect to get to know and enjoy Leipzig! As my first experience in Germany, it was really helpful for me to start connecting with locals and the language. Breakfast is included, which is great — just make sure to be on time, because the leftovers disappear quickly haha. Thank you for this experience! :)
