1. Auberge de Jeunesse HI Rouen
Type: Hostel
Situated within a beautifully renovated 18th-century dye house, this hostel provides a welcoming and social atmosphere. I have found the communal kitchen to be a lively spot for guests to prepare meals and connect, while the garden and terrace offer pleasant spaces to relax and chat with fellow travelers. It provides comfortable, budget-friendly accommodation with breakfast typically included, perfect for those looking to immerse themselves in Rouen’s vibrant student city and historic charm.
