Summary of traveller reviews

Antwerp City Hostel boasts an unbeatable central location, perfect for exploring the city. While many appreciate the friendly staff and included breakfast, recent guests note persistent issues with cleanliness, particularly in bathrooms and rooms, and significant noise from nearby clubs and street activity, especially on weekends. The beds are also frequently mentioned as uncomfortable.

I really enjoyed my stay at Antwerp City Hostel , great friendly staff, very clean, located in the most beautiful place in the heart of the city. All main attractions are nearby. Plenty of good recommendations at the reception. And the breakfast was really good :)

Friendly staff. Perfect place if you like clubbing as you're basically surrounded by bars/cafés. Downside is that it's incredibly noisy and difficult to fall asleep especially on a Saturday night since there's a bar right underneath the hostel. Breakfast is alright, not much atmosphere, but I was only here to see a concert so that didn't matter too much ☺️

The Hostel location is good, is in the heart of the City, but the security is rated low! Someone in our room lost his camera and someone got in pretending that he booked also and we found out that he is outside and a theft. Not recommended. Its my first time to experience this!
