How to Start a Hostel

Quit your job, start a hostel and get paid to live the life of your dreams

Have you ever dreamed of meeting people from all over the world in your own common room?
Do you want to get paid for the value you create and not for your time?
Are you unsure about whether a business would be able to generate enough money to meet your needs?
Do you feel that there is not enough practical information out there to start a hostel?

If you've answered yes to any of these questions, then this course is for you.



How to Start a Hostel is not for hobbyists.

It's for entrepreneurs who are serious about starting and running a profitable hostel.

This course is designed for the following people:

- New entrepreneurs who want to start their own hostel

- Entrepreneurs who have started their hostel but aren't getting the results they want

- Traditional hospitality entrepreneurs who want to take the leap and join the hostel revolution

How to Start a Hostel explores the A-Z of launching and successfully operating your own hostel, and it's the exact process we have followed for all our 5 hostels.

Jason Noronha

In my previous life, I worked as a financial consultant in Singapore. The work bored me and to dull the pain, I traveled as much as I could. One morning, I just couldn't take it anymore and I quit. I then volunteered in Guyana, backpacked around the world and finally decided to follow my passion - travel.

I started my first hostel with a grand sum of $10,000. Somewhere along the way, I met the love of my life and we grew our 4-room hostel into a company with 5 locations, 3 coffee shops, 2 bars and 50+ employees.

Having successfully automated the business, I focused on expanding my business knowledge while completing an MBA at Columbia Business School in NYC. Together with my amazing hostel crew, we are now taking all the lessons learned from our 8 years of running hostels and building incredible software to take our industry forward into the next generation of experiential travel.

Will this course help me open a hostel in my country?
Backpacker hostels are no different from regular businesses in the sense that, if you follow a core set of rules and principles, a successful outcome is predictable. For example, whether you're in Singapore or London, if you use certain technology you will prevent overbookings, and if you use well develped processes to train your staff, you can improve customer satisfaction. This course is centred around teaching you the principles of finance, technology, design, HR and other aspects of the hostel business and these principles are universally applicable to all hostels regardless of location.
