We LOVED this room. The decor was amazing, the puzzles were great - they matched the storyline well, the storyline was easy to follow and the hint system was super helpful and absolutely essential to complete the room; it almost forms part of the story. Really really happy to played this room! Side note - not your typical jump scares, but real “holy balls” moments.

Flowed really well and had a great story line.

Great progression in the story and loved to find similarities with the horror movie of the same name. We struggle too much but it should have been manageable for a team of 2 experienced players. I like the hint system, but would have a prefered quicker contact with GM, who seemed often busy.

Not for the faint of heart!! I did this with my partner a couple of weeks back and some of the jumps definitely spooked me! The theming is really cool, and the room is quite expansive so make sure you move along at a fast pace otherwise you won’t get through it all!

228 escape rooms

Expansive, floor-to-ceiling decorated rooms loaded with tricky puzzles and creative solutions. The atmosphere is incredible thanks to stunning rooms and props — a real 10/10 experience. As someone who has seen the film of the same name, it was eerie how atmospheric the experience was as the story progressed (or unravelled, if you will). It is not for the faint of heart. Though there are no live actors, it can still be quite scary! I can thoroughly recommend it to anyone who is a horror fan or looking for a challenging room to test themselves. The convenient “Hint” button with pre-recorded clues may need to be your friend! Each room is loaded with puzzles that tie into the room’s tale and the aesthetic of each location you “travel” to. You genuinely feel as if you are moving from space to space as you step through each doorway. Hostel is a must for horror escape room fans!

Gameplay

Expansive rooms loaded with puzzles. It is a linear experience and as a team of two, we worked hard to get through majority of the puzzles before ultimately timing out. It wasn’t a point of disappointment, though — as their most challenging room, it is a true test of your critical and creative thinking. It was a delight solving one puzzle after another amidst the creepy, atmospheric puzzles and environment.

Atmosphere

Stunning. Creepy, run down and increasingly horrific, the rooms swiftly move you from one location to the next, ramping up the terror. Every prop fits within the floor-to-ceiling decor, allowing true immersion within the experience. Unlike rooms with simple live actor interactions, Hostel delivers high quality jump scares and creepy situations through artistic, integrated moments.

Customer service

GM was responsive and kind upon entering.

Difficulty

Expert

Very, very tricky! As a team of two, we did not escape in time. Lots of puzzles and many of them are tricky. Can thoroughly recommend the room though — don’t be put off by the challenge, rise up and meet it!
