Great place!! Staff are amazing and really accommodating, really cool common areas, facilities are clean and rooms are roomy. Really close to the train station which was a huge plus for us. Only wish we could have stayed longer!!!

The staff were really nice and helpful. The free dinners and breakfast were better than I've ever seen at a hostel.

Fantastic hostel, the staff are very friendly and more than willing to head out and party with you or just hang out in the hostel. Spacious rooms, with good sized lockers and no bunk beds which was great. Was unfortunate to only spend 3 nights but definately will be back.

Having stayed at both this hostel and the Greg & Tom's party hostel they are both amazing places. The staff are wonderful and one of the cleanest hostels ive stayed in. Free breakfast and dinner is awsome and everynight they organise activites such as pub crawls and vodka tasting for only 8ish euro. I personally prefer the party hostel but for those wanting a quiter atmosphere and yet still wanting to go on the pub crawls etc stay here. Highly recommended.

Such an amazing hostel!!!! Absolutely nothing bad to say at all. The staff here are outstanding, helping with everything they possibly can and they make it feel more like a home than a hostel. Great location and awesome free breakfast and dinner. As for nighlife there is always something happening and the staff are always happy to show you the best Krakow has to offer. Really one of the most exceptional hostels in the world, so much so that I had to extend my stay 5 times! Enjoy.

This was my second stay in this hostel. Like last time, this hostel is definitely one of the best that I stayed at! It is very clean and next to train station and a big shopping mall. There are no bunk beds, and every bed has bed lump and electronical sockets. And more, they offer wonderful breakfast and dinner. Especially breakfast can be better than normal hotels. When I am back in Krakow, I will stay there again definitely!

What makes this hostel is the staff. On my first day they went through the attractions and gave me cake! Great value for money. Unfortunately, there were a lot of awful Australians during my stay here (I am from Australia). They were loud, drunk and although this isn´t the hostel´s fault, having such an obnoxious bunch of people really worsened my opinion of it. I would recommend this hostel for anyone who likes to party A LOT. Personally, I felt pressured to drink all the time. Not good.

Thanks for staying with us, we're really upset You did not enjoy your stay here entirely. But You need to understand that we don't decide what kind of people are booking their stay with us, we also cannot segregate them for their nationality. We are not a party hostel but we do provide the opportunities to socialize and have fun for the people who like to party especially since they in majority. Still I think we provide a good value of stay for all the types of backpackers.

Greg & Tom is an awesome hostel, with free dinner (also a great way to meet your hostelmates). During check-in staff sits down and helps you plan your visit. There is a reason why this hostel wins so many awards. If there is availability, do not hesitate in booking at this hostel, 99% chance you will not regret it.

It was fantastic! The hostel is clean ,the staff is warm. It is just five mins to the train station. You can even get free dinner at the hostel, and the dinner is very nice. And you can join the vodka shot at the hostel. I wanna stay more days!

I stayed in Greg & Tom for 12 days, and this period was simply amazing. Actually, I was thinking to stay just three days, but unfortunately I had a problem with my passport, and I was forced to extend my stay there. However, all the staff and the owners made me feel so good during these days... They helped me in everything to find my passport. Even if it haven't happened, staying in this hostel is kinda unbelievable. Huge breakfast, delicious dinner every evening, shots of vodka, I was surprised

This a wonderful small hostel! Very cozy and very nice vibe! The staff were very helpful and really nice people they sit down with you and give you a good overview of places you want to get to. Great food at all times (breakfast and dinner amazing). They are very well located and I would suggest staying with them if you go!
