History of The Hostel Concept
The hostel concept was established in 1912 in Germany by a teacher named Richard Schirmann. What began as converting regular classrooms into dormitories for visiting classes on lengthy trips has become a preferred economical, yet adventurous place of rest for travellers all over the world. Although hostels have come a long way since its founding, dormitory-style living has remained the standard layout. Most hostels today include private rooms for more privacy and comfort. Travellers staying for longer periods of time may find this option more conveniant. Of course, travellers just passing through and wanting to meet new people can look forward to a dorm room.
