The Arlington Hostel & Pub

Great pub! Friendly staff, good music, tons to do, pool tables, dart boards, foosball, games for the kids. Good choice of drinks too!

First off you get quite the impression as you walk up to this beautiful, bright PURPLE building. Then you go inside and you feel like you've stepped back in time a couple decades, we felt a funny sense of "being at home-ness". We were greeted with a smile, lovely staff. We had the pizza which was the best in the galaxy I can confirm. Highly recommend, well be going back whenever we're back up in the area!

We had a wedding in Bancroft and didn't want to drive home after. We knew it was a hostel and that we wouldn't have a private bathroom so we knew we shouldn't be expecting a 5* accommodation or anything. We just didn't want to spend a lot of money.

We LOVED the staff! They were SO friendly. Ron and Cindy made a delicious pizza. We sat out on the patio and had some beers, pizza and watched the rain.

There was a common room with tons of movies but we didn't end up watching anything as we were too tired. The place creaks a lot and definitely has a few quirks. It was tidy but not overly clean feeling, but it has a lot of character and a cool vibe. It kind of felt like we were staying at someone's house.

Anyways it's great if you're not too picky and looking for a nice place that isn't too pricey. The employees alone made us want to come back. They were so lovely.

Amazing hostel, highly recommended. Had plenty of good times here listening to amazing musicians from all around.

Only thing that sucks is that it's not more busy! Great spot, great people and extremely reasonable prices. Have had a lot of fun times there
