Hostelworld says:

Hostelworld guests tell us that International Budget Hostel offers good value for price and location because it's 'on the beautiful Prinsengracht canal and is easily accessible by tram from Centraal Station'. Our reviewers have said this hostel is 'just one minute from Leidseplein and real close to everywhere', in a neighbourhood 'full of restaurants and shops'. They also say they'd recommend this hostel to friends for their 'spotless' facilities and helpful, enthusiastic staff. We like that this hostel rents bikes, an essential method of transport in Amsterdam.

Property Information:

International Budget Hostel is beautifully situated in the heart of the city centre in the Leidseplein (Leidse Square) area. Leidseplein is the most famous nightlife area in Amsterdam. The location of the hostel is on a quiet, beautiful canal - the Leidsegracht.

Rooms are shared mixed from triples and quads to five- and six-person rooms. Each hallway has showers and WCs.

Our hostel, set in a former 17th-century warehouse, has a cosy lounge facing the canal where one can relax and socialize and meet other fellow travellers. Breakfast is not included in the room price but is available in the lounge between 9am and 12 noon. The lounge has vending machines, a television, an internet station and a public phone. Free Wi-Fi is available in the entire hostel. We are placed in a old monumental building with no elevators, just steep stairs.
We also have a house cat (which does no harm at all) who just stays in our lounge area and does not come in the rooms.

The hostel is a few minutes from the famous Van Gogh Museum, beautiful Dam Square, the entertaining Red light district, relaxing Vondelpark, historical Anne Frank House and the best clubs, coffee shops, bars and restaurants and many more great places.

The staff can provide you with great ideas to spend your time in Amsterdam. If you're interested in renting a bike we're happy to organise this for you.

Due to the new non-smoking law which is introduced since July 1st 2008, smoking is not permitted in the hostel. The entire hostel has smoke detectors. There is video security in all public areas.

We are pleased to announce our new indoor smoking room, where you can chill out, socialize, and smoke in comfort looking out over Amsterdam's beautiful canals. The rest of the hostel remains smoke free

Please read our T&Cs below.

The reservation will be terminated if the hostel does not get authorization on the credit card.

    We're in a traditional canal building just around the corner from Leidseplein, which is one of the main nightlife and entertainment areas in Amsterdam. On a 10-minute walk you can find some of the main museums, such as Anne Frank House, the Van Gogh museum and the Rijksmuseum. In a 15-minute walk you're in the heart of the Red Light District. On a warm day, I think the Vondelpark is a wonderful place to hang out, and if you're looking for quirky souvenirs the Flower Market is a great place to go.
    We offer guests the opportunity to book several tours, like free city tours, bike tours and pub crawls. We also rent out bikes to guests.
    We pay a lot of attention to detail here here and hygiene is a priority. Because it's a hostel there's not much luxury, but you can definitely expect to have a clean bed and shower.

    The WIFI router wasn't very good so you need to get close to the smoke room to get a decent signal
