About

Just a few years ago the sleeping cars of the Train Lodge where the luxury cars of the night train Zurich - Rome. Night trains are diminishing but our sleeping cars are very comfortable even more if these are not running. That is why we started a project for a hotel on a track in Amsterdam, one of most interesting and nicest cities. If you are looking to stay at a very nice spot in a comfortable accommodation at a affordable price, you should come to our Train Lodge. Meet other nice people, different languages, cultures and colours. Please stay with us, our Train Lodge with a retro atmosphere is a lovely place to stay where you sleep in the compartments of 4 comfortable former Swiss international sleeping train cars. Together with a bistro train car and our sunny terrace you will like your stay.
Our Train Lodge has a bar-bistro train car where you also check in. Our terrace is a nice place where you can meet you fellow travellers, have your drink, your breakfast or just stay around and meet new friends.

You will find the Train Lodge next to the Amsterdam Sloterdijk Station where you find all connections by bus, tram, metro and train to all other hot spots in Amsterdam. But you can easily reach the important places, dance locations, festival, and so one. We have direct connection by train to the main airport of the Netherlands which is Amsterdam Airport Schiphol.

Unique hostel in a train so don't expect the standard hotelroom. You will get the real train experience! Choose a bed in a shared or private compartment with 3 person bunk beds, or book it with your friends, schoolmates or club. You can even book a whole sleeping car to sleep up to 33 persons. In total we have 132 very affordable beds.

Overall the Train Hostel was a good stay. I was fortunate to get a bottom bunk as they are three high. The washrooms and showers are very cramped and in some the taps didn’t work. Staff was very friendly as were the other travellers I met.

3 people could not all stand up together in the 3 person room, was extremely extremely small, could also hear everyone in the surrounding rooms from our “private” room. Shower did not lock properly. Sink was broken. You had to ask staff to lock and unlock your room every time you leave/arrive, which added an extra 5 minutes to either side. Novel for 1 night but 5 nights was unbearable.

The place is relaxing, the staffs are all approachable and helpful, very clean linens and the shower though it is shared but it’s clean as well, i highly recommend this hotel if you are on a budget but would want to stay in a chill area
