About Poets Corner Hostel
Poets' Corner is a small, homelike hostel right in the historic centre of Olomouc.
We offer both shared and private rooms. The rooms are all big and colourful and we guarantee our dorm beds to be the best value accommodation in Olomouc.
The private rooms all have real double beds and can be Twins, Doubles, Triples or Quads (just send us an email if your first choice is not available here).
Olomouc is the second oldest and second largest historic preservation area in the Czech Republic (after Prague). It's also the country's biggest university town by percentage of population. So there's plenty to see and do and loads of young English-speaking locals to meet.
Another thing about Olomouc is that it's in Moravia, which is older and better preserved than Bohemia. It's half the size, but has seven UNESCO sights to Bohemia's five, for example. Easy daytrips include Bouzov castle, Kroměříž and Litomyšl (both UNESCO), Javořicko caves and cycling out to the lake.
All guests receive our 'Treasure Map' of Olomouc, with handpicked recommendations for the best restaurants, bars and sights. We can also tell you about festivals, concerts, walking tours, and will do our best to help you get the most out of your stay.
Sometimes we require a minimum stay of two nights. The hostel is for people who want to see Olomouc, and that takes at least a couple of days. So we make sure that not all beds are taken by transit travellers just breaking a trip. We don't take school groups for the same reason. Sorry.
If no beds are available on this website, it doesn't necessarily mean the hostel is full. Just send us an email or give us a call to find out.
Thanks and see you soon, The Poets
*New Year's Eve*. University town Olomouc is a great place to be for New Year's and we still have space available, but are only accepting reservations through our own website, because it's not cool for everyone to cancel on the 30th like happened last year. Thanks.
*Ice Hockey* Olomouc is in the 1st league of the National competition and home games are on Nov 25, Dec 2, 6, 9 and 14. Entry is less than 2.5 Euros and the guys can always use extra fans...
