In generel the hostel was ok, but not as special as we expected. The homepage of pink panther is promising more than we actually got. Maybe its correlated to the season we went to visit krakau but in general it didn´t meet our expectations.

Hostel is overprices for services they offer, building is very old, and my room didnt have some of necessary things inside. It situated on several floors so you dont have feeling like being in hostel. Breakfast is also nothing special. To conclude, I didnt like it.

Dear Mirna, our hostel is located in one of the original historical building being a part of the Krakow OLD TOWN though all the rooms, bathrooms and common areas are renovated and modernly decorated. In every room there are beds, lockers and tables, is there anything else you need in a hostel room…? We have decided that we keep our rooms simple. It feels more social and cosy when everyone hangs out in the common spaces, instead of hiding in the rooms. As for the several floors, yes our hostel is located on two floors but we have a big common area opened for all our guest! Moreover we organize FREE events every day which gather everybody around and creates perfect atmosphere for meeting other travelers, isn't it what hostelling is about…? With best regards, Paulina

Had a great time staying here. The staff make the hostel, first night in the hostel, welcomed with flip cup and drinking games then took us off to a club. Travelling alone yet met some awesome people. The rooms were good, bathrooms good, and wicked location.

Amazing hostel in every way. I've been to lots of hostels around europe and the Pink Panthers hostel is up there with the best, Always a great atmosphere among guests and staff. Rooms are clean, simple and have everything you need to enjoy your stay. The bathrooms are really clean and very modern. The staff cant help you enough- they organise transport, nights out and have all the information you need to enjoy your stay in Krakow. Overall a fantasic hostel in a great location. 10/10!!!

I went to 4 cities during my march holidays and this was by far my favourite hostel. The atmosphere is great, very easy to make friends and go out during the day and at night. The pubcrawl was hilarious. Also, they have a free event every night, whether it is fondue, vodka tasting, soup, etc. Great hoste. I recommend it 100%

Pink Panther was fantastic. I have stayed in hostels all over the world and not only is the location absolutely perfect, but also the showers were nice, beds were clean, doors had strong locks and hang out area/free breakfast were great. I would definitely recommend this, especially because it is so inexpensive!

Had a great time in Krakow and Pink Panther's Hostel! The hostel is nicely situated in the city center, so it's a nice base for exploring both the culture/history of Krakow and of course the night life :-). They have a young and helpful staff who organize daily events in the common room. All in all it was a great hostel in a great city

Such a great hostel and amazing value for money. Clean bathrooms and breakfast was decent. So close to all the main spots and one of the staff recommended a fantastic polish restaurant which was brilliant and so cheap. They booked the two tours we did for us as well, stored our bags on our last day and even let us hang out there after we had checked out as had a late flight to catch. Definitely recommend!

Very close to the main square, clean rooms, friendly staff and guests! They host an event every night in the common room, so it's easy to meet people. My only complaint is the one bathroom a few steps above the front desk - it smelled horrible our whole stay!

I was really let down by one of the guys who works at the hostel. We stayed over a weekend and he would bring around all of his mates at 7am take up the entire lounge (there was like 30 of them) and drink, shout and yell, which was horrible for getting any sleep as we slept in a room right near the lounge. They would dominate that lounge space from early morning through late evening making it awkward for an actual traveler to find space for him or herself to relax.

Well, 7 am is not a quiet time, we are also very diappointed that you judged our hostel by one loud incident, these people were not our friends, just our Polish guests staying in the 12 bed dorm downstairs. You probabaly did not notice that we asked them not to talk so loud but that was all we could do considering that this was already morning not quiet time hours. Rating staff with 1 is really unjust. By the way, our location and value for money are best in town so there is probably something wrong with your judgement.
