The Hostelz.com Review - Genuine, independent review you can trust.

Located on Westerplatte Street, Euro Hostel Krakow is a stone's throw from Old Town. Small, fairly modern, and very clean, the hostel is more like a bare-bones apartment with no common areas and little atmosphere. The space overall is attractive, bathrooms are newly renovated, and there is a washing machine. It is easy to find, and there is only one short flight of stairs to climb.

The Location

The location of this hostel is excellent, right across the street from Planty Krakowskie, and ten minutes by foot to Old Town. There is a twenty-four-hour Carrefour a few blocks away and the street is large and safe.

Rooms and Bathrooms

Upon check-in you are provided with keys to the building, to the hostel itself, and to your room. The dorm room is clean, beds are already made, and you are not asked to strip your sheets. There are a good amount of outlets along the floor but no designated outlets per bed. No lamps or shelves either. There is a TV in the six-bed dorm. The dorm is cramped but has a table. There is no locked storage inside the dorm. There is a full length mirror with a light over it, which is a nice touch.

There are two spacious and clean, full baths. The water pressure is adequate and the water gets nice and hot. One of the bathrooms contains a washing machine. Both bathrooms are newly renovated in a modern and attractive aesthetic.

Common Spaces

Euro Hostel is not a place to make friends. There is a small "kitchen" area with a microwave and tea kettle. The hostel provides free tea and coffee (you can choose between real coffee and instant). There is no sink in the kitchen area so the water comes from the bathroom sink.

There is an additional fee for towel rental. Credit cards are accepted. Reception staff speak little English. There is free Wi-Fi throughout and it is adequate enough for a video call, although the quality of the call must be low.

Summary

Euro Hostel is an excellent option for mature travelers who are looking for a clean, centrally located place to stay. It is excellent for travelers who expect to have all their meals at any one of Krakow's lovely dining establishments. The price is a bit high for what you get in terms of the hostel itself, but the location is lovely.
