The most affordable, unique and enjoyable way to experience this area is to stay in Verona hostels.

What the Verona hostels do have in common are affordability and the opportunity to meet great people in Verona’s most beautiful and interesting areas.

If you are a history or architecture buff, or just a romantic, Verona, Italy is a must-see. This beautiful city of narrow, winding streets and piazzas was part of the Roman Empire and her history is apparent everywhere in her Roman, Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance architecture.

It was in fair Verona that Shakespeare laid the scene for his famous romantic tragedy, Romeo and Juliet. Shakespeare festivals are still held in the city’s first-century Roman Theatre, within walking distance from some of the hostels in Verona, as are the wonderful outdoor operas that take place nightly in the Arena, a huge outdoor amphitheatre, all summer.

Verona also has a thriving nightlife and a diverse arts scene. She rests on lush, fecund ground and is surrounded by vineyards, olive plantations and other agriculture.

If you are looking for a Verona hostel in summer, check out the Residenza Universitaria 'Campofiore' at Vicolo Campofiore 2.

The friendly staff at Campofiore can recommend hotspots and discos, as well as historic sites for you to enjoy. While reception closes at 1am, guests receive keys at check-in so the hostel is open to them 24 hours.
