Hostelworld says:
Greg & Tom Hostel was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2011 Hoscars and it's not difficult to see why. This friendly, sociable hostel is very centrally located, less than 10 minutes' walk from Market Square and St Florian's Gate, and an easy walk to the rest of Krakow's main sights. The staff are very highly rated here on Hostelworld and we like that they serve a different free dinner seven nights a week, perfect for meeting other travellers. This hostel also features two fully equipped kitchens, free Internet and Wi-Fi, free walking tours and no bunk beds.

I think what puts us ahead of the rest is that in everything we do, we put our hearts into it...it makes us perfect as friends and professionals all at once. For instance, we offer two completely free meals every day - breakfast AND dinner! We can even pack your lunch before you head out for the day.

We're in a great location, close to the bus and train stations, for guests' convenience. We're also near a shopping mall, a 24hr exchange office, 24hr liquor store and the Old Town. The only local place that I recommend that guests visit is of course Auschwitz-Birkenau Concentration Camps. Guests can actually book tours right at our reception.
I'd say our hostel is ideal for young people willing to have fun, meet new people and socialise. Most of our guests tend to be in their 20s and 30s.- Aga, Manager
Latest Review
Nice little place, especially fanatastic if you are wanting somewhere quiet, cute and comfortable and are on a budget. The 'free' dinner + breakfast makes for excellent value for money. My only problem was a member of staff. I decided to transfer to their sister firm (the Beer Hostel) as the ordinary hostel is a little quietish (which is my fault for booking here I know) and she became very quiet and cold with her body language and didn't say thank you or goodbye when leaving.
