About Us

Our modern, clean, friendly hostel is located in the heart of Buffalo's theater and entertainment district and is a great base for exploring Niagara Falls.

New York's second largest city, Buffalo is known world-wide for its architectural treasures; only Chicago boasts a larger collection of buildings by America's foremost architects: Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Sullivan, and Henry Hobson Richardson. The acclaimed Albright-Knox Art Gallery boasts one of the top collections of modern art in the world.

Guidebooks comment on Buffalo's lively nightlife scene. The hostel is located a short walk from the center of activity--and just 1km from the Anchor Bar and Restaurant, where Buffalo chicken wings were invented. A city of sports enthusiasts, Buffalo has professional hockey, football, and baseball teams.

Let's Go USA says that a combination of big-city perks and small-town warmth make Buffalo a soothing place to spend some time. Travelers seem to agree; many stay a day—or two or three—longer than they originally planned.

We hope to see you at HI-Buffalo Niagara!
