Spoon and the Stars Hostel

Upon arrival my husband was charged 240euro for a double room for two nights. We were shown to a quirky room (toilet chairs?) and interesting antiques. However, once we arrived there were six flies! The next day I couldn’t bear it and asked the cleaner for a fly killer..the cleaner kindly sprayed the room on the second day… I didn’t feel very clean to be honest. After attending a wedding, we arrived at 11pm and couldn’t open the lock digit to open the door because it gets changed daily. I would have thought they’d changed the code in the morning not during the afternoon when we were out. I think for 120euros I wouldn’t stay there for hygiene reasons and lack of light /aircon again. However it’s near the bus terminal. I’m hoping we can get part refund… I didn’t sleep very well. Cleaner and kitchen maid kind though.

Truly the best hostel iv stayed in. The staff are so helpful and friendly. Breakfast in the mornings are great.very clean and tidy. Have stayed in hostels all over Europe but nothing beats this place.all round 10/10 from me and will certainly be back

I requested a twin bed because my companion could not sleep. I am 76 years old and not able to enjoy stairs this place a a lot of stairs as we were placed on the top floor. But anyway , it’s over and still grateful to have a place for us.

Spoon and the Stars is great! Our private room was fantastic. The shared spaces are cute and quaint. The woman at the front desk was very friendly, informative and accommodating. I definitely recommend if you need lodging in Drogheda!

The owner of the hostel was very nice and helpful. However, during our stay, it was very rare to find someone (himself or a staff member) to answer questions. The room was very nice renovated and cozy! Thank you very much! :-)

I stayed at spoon and the stars on several occasions during 2023 in both mixed dorm and private room. The rooms were quiet and comfortable, and the bathrooms were always clean. The staff were very helpful and the common rooms were very inviting. The location is a near a bus stop and a shopping mall, which is a plus. Overall I’d highly recommend staying here if you’re in Drogheda or wanting to visit Newgrange nearby.

The place was easy to find and in a convenient location, friendly staff, the only downside for me was that my room was on a highly trafficked street so it was a little noisy… but overall good!

First time at this property and I highly recommend it. Close to train station and 24 hour shop. Cozy rooms. The staff are great! So welcoming and helpful. Will definitely stay again.

The accommodation was great, but the staff went to a whole different level to make you feel so welcome, and of course Declan the manager was so professional, very courteous and welcoming, without him it would have been a different experience he really was a great man. My only regret was not writing this review earlier, I more than reccomend this place. And I for sure will return again one day, thank you everyone for making my stay a great memory. Marvin
