My friend and I arrived at Ars hostel all excited for our trip only to be told on arrival that our booking had been cancelled and we had been sent an email telling us this. My friend checked her emails there and then and she had not received any emails. We were very unhappy. The guy could not speak much... More

This hostel is really well located, just a few blocks from Krakows city center. The staff was great: incredibly friendly, they even took us out on the evenings to get to know the city nightlife. The prices were modest but we were surprised by how much this hostel had to offer... the bedrooms were huge, lots of showers, delicious breakfast,... More

We went on a trip to Krakow a few weeks back and this seemed like the hostel with the best reviews. When we go there we understood why.

As long as you're expecting a hostel not a hotel this is great value. Free vodka shot each day and breakfast included at £11/night (travelling as a 3 we paid to have a private room) there is also free internet.

The staff were great and helped us organize everything, with a great free breakfast (basic but nice). The wi fi was fast and reliable. Great hostel for young travelers too with a comfy common room and... More
