Botanical Backpackers

We're great for volunteers who want to really feel at home in Belfast,
we'll show you the best cafes, walks, and ideas for a rainy day!
We have the loveliest volunteers, so you should meet some new friends while you work!

We're a little family here- everyone works hard, but we also help each other out whenever we can! The hostel is run by Erika (a Belfast local), and we usually have 2-3 volunteers at a time.

I've had such a lovely time volunteering at Erika's hostel (and have extended my stay!!). She has created a beautiful place that's so relaxed and you can tell is a passion project. Working shifts are very clear and Erika is often around the hostel or very easy to contact. She has the best recommendations for what to do in and around Belfast and for being at the hostel I've loved the excessive baking we've been doing for guests, the movie sessions and Erika's stories. Being so near to the botanic gardens is gorgeous also and theres always music on in the city. I can't recommend enough :)

Erika has created a welcoming space with charming decor, photos, and writings from past guests and staff, adding a personal touch. The hostel offers a peaceful atmosphere that blends business with the beauty and history of Northern Ireland. Erika is not only a fantastic boss but also a great friend and storyteller. Her passion and dedication are evident in every detail. During downtime, we often baked, did crafts, and chatted around the dinner table. I feel so lucky to have been part of this hostel, even if only for a short time. I’m grateful for the warm hospitality, thank you for having me!

Volunteering at Botanical Backpackers was such a wonderful experience! It’s such a cosy hostel, the rooms are great and the breakfast was so good with so many options! Erika truly made my stay feel like a home away from home, and was always on hand if I had any questions! The relaxed and comforting atmosphere here made it super easy to make friends to chat with all evening! I couldn’t recommend volunteering here more, Belfast is beautiful and Erika has all the best recommendations for where to visit during your stay! I hope to return in the future!! ◡̈

This hostel is a cosy home away from home and was a great spot for me to do my first ever hostel volunteering work! Erika is a bubbly and friendly coworker/boss who was clear and direct with what she wanted and helped me to get stuck in and to crack on. This hostel is very chill and calm, a great place to work or visit. I thoroughly enjoyed Belfast, it is a great spot, with great people, thank you!
All the best, Brionny! :)
