How to name a hostel, interesting names. The most unique hostels and hotels in the world Hostel in Odessa

If you decide to open your own hostel, but can't find the right name, the examples below, as well as a classification of the main naming strategies, will help you choose the best option. So, this article outlines the basic principles for creating bright and memorable brands for hostels, as well as many examples of the names of mini-hotels throughout Russia.

Principles for constructing hostel names

The brands under which mini-hotels, which are so popular among tourists, usually operate, are difficult to classify. However, this does not mean at all that the names of hostels are formed randomly, without any strategies. The basic principles for the formation of the names of such institutions are described in detail below.

1. Names with direct occurrence of the word "hostel". First of all, it is worth noting that the owners of mini-hotels use both Russian names, for example, "My Hostel" and "Hostel-Rus", and Latin variants, for example, "Arena Hostel" and "Interhostel". Moreover, the latter do not necessarily have to be of foreign origin, some of them are simply a transliteration of Russian words. This method allows you to form interesting options, such as “Da! Hostel", "Hostel Bolshoi", etc. At the same time, the name does not necessarily have to be associated with rental housing. Owners of mini-hotels can combine any vocabulary, getting very original options, such as, for example, "Oh So Indie Hostel" or "Star Wars hostel".
2. Names that include the words "house", "house", "hotel", "room", etc.. This category of names is also quite common. As in the previous case, it all depends on the owner's imagination - by combining the above words with other vocabulary, you can get bright and interesting names, such as, for example, "Anti Dorm", "Uprav-dom.com", or more concise names, for example "Academic residence" or "Economy class hotel". As a rule, the latter are of a descriptive nature and attract a certain category of clients who, first of all, seek to save on accommodation.
3. Other original titles. This category combines the largest number of titles. They can be completely different - both related to the activities of mini-hotels, and have nothing to do with it. Names such as “Come & Sleep”, “Come & Go” or “Mr. Guest” cause potential customers to directly associate with the type of services provided in a mini-hotel, while the names “Anchor”, “Phoenix”, “Indigo”, etc. .d. have nothing to do with hostels. However, due to their brightness, the latter can also become recognizable brands and attract tourists from around the world.
