Property Description

OVERVIEW
Nearly for twenty years, Hostel ELF is a perfect base for young travelers seeking for fun, adventures, nightlife, art and history in hundred-spired Prague. You will enjoy vibrant atmosphere in a unique hostel setting full of Instagram-worthy graffiti and modern artworks. Wide choice of regular events and parties will help you to socialize with other like-minded backpackers in our comfy lounge or at blooming patio partially shaded by trees. Make there a barbecue, eat your meal, enjoy your cup of morning coffee or famous Czech beer from our bar and start exploring.

LOCATION
The hostel is located 20min walk from the Prague Old Town in Zizkov, a district full of bars, pubs, cafes, galleries and restaurants serving traditional goulash or pork knuckle. It is said that Zizkov has the highest density of bars than any other city district in Europe so it makes sense to head there if you are looking for a night out. The Palac Akropolis is recognized as a center of cultural events in the area and the Storm club is considered to be one of the best in Prague. If you are into history and modern architecture visit nearby National monument Vi­tkov and Zizkov TV tower, from where you can admire breathtaking views over the whole city.

SERVICES and EVENTS
Connect to free Wi-Fi to stay in touch with others and to plan your day. Join a Free walking tour, Pub crawl or ask our staff at the reception open
from 8.00- 22.00 to help you finding the best things to do. Tight budget? Enjoy free coffee or tea available 24/7 or prove your cooking skills in fully equipped kitchen.

Are you coming alone, in couple or with a bunch of friends? We have options for all - rooms with private or shared bathroom or spacious dormitories each decorated with original artworks. For your safety all the rooms are accessible with a key card and on dormitories you can store your luggage in personal lockers. Fresh bed linen and accessible electric sockets are a sure thing. Your valuables can be kept in safes at the reception.

NOTE: Please note that guests aged 40 and over are not allowed to stay in our dorm rooms but you are more than welcome to stay in private rooms. Thank you for understanding.

Thank you very much for a pleasant stay at the Helf hostel, I was surprised, I got a new repaired room with new windows. I slept well, otherwise all other services were in perfect order. I very warmly recommend this hostel also due to its excellent location and accessibility to all places in the vicinity that Prague has to offer.

ChatGPT I visited the Elf Hostel, and it's situated in a fascinating location near the heart of Prague. Žižkov is a vibrant area with unique bars and clubs. The staff welcomed me warmly, and all the services, including hygiene and accommodations, were excellent. The booking process was swift and efficient. Additionally, I received valuable recommendations on places to explore around Prague. Thank you so much!

Hostel Elf exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality. The facilities were clean, modern, and well-maintained. The staff went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and provided great recommendations for exploring the area. Even when there was not too many guests staying at this time during low season the atmosphere is vibrant, making it easy to meet fellow travelers. Hostel Elf truly lives up to its name and I would highly recommend it.
