Hostelworld, the leading online hotel-booking platform, has reported impressive financial results for the first half of the year. The company’s revenue soared to €51.5 million, representing a significant 57% increase compared to the same period in 2022. Notably, net bookings also experienced remarkable growth, rising by 64% to reach 3.4 million, driven by stellar performances in key markets.

In terms of profitability, Hostelworld demonstrated a remarkable turnaround, with adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) shifting from a loss of €5.2 million in the prior year to a positive €5.1 million.

Building on this success, Hostelworld is highly confident about its 2023 earnings outlook and has maintained its adjusted EBITDA guidance range of €16.5 million to €17 million for the full year.

Hostelworld is scheduled to release its comprehensive half-year report on August 10th, providing further insights into its financial performance and growth strategies.
