Excellent location, in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood, close to the park by the river and to the Wawel Castle. Located about 15 minutes walk from the bus stop to the airport. The room was comfortable, very clean, with a large balcony. The bathroom was big enough and perfectly cleaned. The 24 hour reception was a great asset, all the girls were very friendly and helpful. I put an excellent rating!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    I absolutely recommend Atlantis Hostel! Very helpful staff, excellent central location, absolute cleaness, safety (code locks), stylish design of the common space, excellent kitchen, and plenty of space, complimentary coffee, and tea. I stayed only one night in a dormitory but could well imagine to stay much longer. That is one of the best hotels I've ever stayed.

    One of the best hostels i’ve been. Very clean, big room, comfortable bed and pillow. Nice toilets with isolated shower cabin, hot water. And it couldn't be any cheaper. Girls at the receptions are very nice and the check in is super easy. And i have to add that they accepted some package on behalf of my name and kept it at the reception until i arrived. Im really thankful for that. I really recommend it.

    The hostel was in a perfect location with staff 24/7 always there to assist. As a solo traveler I felt safe and comfortable during my stay, I liked it so much that I even extended. A must try is also the bar crawl as it’s a great way to meet new people and have so much fun. I can’t wait for my next visit here thank you so much to all the staff.

    I stayed in a private room. Clean, safe, modern, working wifi, spacious room with comfy bed. Very good value for the price. Bathroom lovely. A little bit away from the main square, but within walking distance. Pleasant staff and nice hostel communal areas. Luggage storage available. Would recommend for a short, cheap stay.
