This was my first time at a hostel and the stay was pretty good. The only issues were the room temperatures were warm, and only 2 of 3 showers were running. It was pretty loud until 2-3am because of the bar area. I had no issues with it, but my traveling partner did. The location was really good though, it was really close to lots of restaurants and shops. Bikes and scooters on site were very convenient as well. The staff was cool and friendly. Overall, I would definitely stay here again.

Good value for money.
The place is very nice and well located. It might be a bit noisy on the weekends for this reason. The rooms are comfortable, and so are the bathrooms, although out of three toilets, two were out of order. The staff was very attentive and helpful.

Excellent choice for a near downtown Denver stay!
I stayed here 2 nights out of 3 (Oct 8th and Oct 10th) while I snuck in a flight to Vegas (on Oct 9th) for the Avs road hockey game. Since my round trip flight to Vegas was a No-Tel trip, the Hostel Fish allowed me to keep my bag in storage until I came back for my second reservation. Which was perfect for me! They have a bar that’s open until 2am. They offer an acoustic open mic night on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays of each month. Also each Thursday at 8pm you can pay $10 for the Pub Crawl that starts with a free drink in the Hostel Fish bar and discounted drinks at the other bars on the map! They also have a kitchen, a place to practice up on your darts 🎯 game! Bring some quarters (or your credit card) to play pac-man too! They also have some common rooms available and I noticed an elevator! Bathrooms are clean and secure! It’s basically located on the edge of downtown Denver. If you’re making a trip for a Rockies baseball game you can easily walk to Coors Field that is just 2 blocks away! One of my favorite hangouts is the Giggling Grizzly which is about 1 block away. I also noticed a cool pool hall about a block away but I didn’t stop in to check it out. I can also walk to Union station and get a train to the airport in less than 10 minutes, and for $4, I could take a scooter to Ball Arena for an Avs/Nuggets/Mammoth game, it’s also very doable to walk it. I had a great time at the Hostel Fish! Wish I could share more but I’m running out of characters remaining!

Nice spot near downtown Denver near the stadiums and shops. It can be lively and noisy for some people as night time tends to be bar crawl hours, but I'm a deep sleeper so it's not a problem for me. Nice price and convenient stay.

Cons: I didn't realize they don't have towels, so that was an inconvenience. The privacy curtain didn't block the entire length of the bed, and I sleep cold, so the room set to 74 and a tiny fan did nothing for the amount of sweating that happened. Pros: location was great for what I was in town for. The bar inside is convenient, the staff is friendly. I think for a night, this is a great spot for the price, but I stayed 2 nights, and I am olllddd comapred to everyone else there, so the temperature and no towels would have me stay somewhere else next time.

It was a great experience. Friendly staff, walkable area. The only thing i felt was missing is they could use benches in the shower area to set your things on so they don't get wet and make it easier to get dressed

Excellent stay
I came to town for a Rockies game and I couldn’t have had a better stay. The hostel is an easy walk to the stadium and Union Station, where there are plenty of excellent restaurants and a vibrant nightlife. And for the price given the location I’d say it’s quite a deal. My bunk was comfortable, the showers and bathroom well-maintained and the lounge was a perfect morning meditation spot. I would stay here any time I come to Denver and I would highly recommend.

A cute gem
My overall experience at this place is awesome! Second time staying here. Upon arrival I found the bed accidently unkept but it was no problem upon letting front desk know. They immediately cleaned and changed my sheets and then all was right. The crowd is younger and chill. The room I stayed in above the bar was exceptionally quiet, maybe because it was a Tuesday night? But overall I enjoy this place. Close to downtown, open kitchen vibes, bar and balcony for social gathering. waking distance to everything downtown.
