Hostels in Kazan
Kazan’s hostels offer capsule beds, dorm beds and private rooms. Consider places near the Kremlin and Bauman Street if you plan to explore the centre on foot.
By the Kremlin with a Shared Kitchen
Tsentralny, in the Central Stadium building at the foot of the Kazan Kremlin, offers women-only, men-only and mixed dorms for 6, 8 or 12 guests. Each bed has a privacy curtain, power sockets and a light, while the shared kitchen area in the main building is handy for storing and reheating food after sightseeing.

Kazan Hostels at Your Own Pace
These Kazan hostels have cooking facilities, so you can plan meals around your own schedule.

What to consider when choosing
For sightseeing on foot, choose a hostel near the Kremlin or within walking distance of Bauman Street. If you’re arriving by train, consider Geografiya: it is 900 metres from the railway station and 800 metres from the Kremlin.
For more privacy in a shared room, KAZAN has capsule-style beds with curtains; Tsentralny offers women-only, men-only and mixed dorms for 6, 8 or 12 guests. If you’d rather not share a room, Kot na Kryshe has private rooms for two, while Krolichya Nora offers family rooms with private bathrooms and showers.
Check the locker size and luggage storage arrangements: Geografiya has lockable storage for personal belongings and a luggage storage room, but it’s worth confirming locker capacity in advance. For a longer stay, its washing machine may also come in handy.
