Location: From central station it takes a very smooth 10-minute walk through the adorable alley surrounded with beautiful scenery. Staff in the reception (night shift) was extremely nice, welcoming and helpful. Could rate him 20 out 10, if possible. He also helped with my suitcase to upstairs. Room was clean and spacious. Due to the corona maximum of 3 person per room are allowed in these days, which I liked very much. Every bed has curtains to create private environment. Bed was sooo comfortable! I also was worried about the noise due to the bars in the neighborhood and in the premises of the hostel itself. However, windows were quite soundproof and nothing extra bothered me. I liked the fan in the room which made it possible to breathe inside the “curtain walls” of individual beds. Bathroom is shared, but very comfortable and clean. I appreciated the extra toilet available, in case of occupied bathroom by roommates. Wifi works flawlessly! And there is a locker for the bags.
NorwayKing Kong Hostel provides a free banana and coffee! The staff is extraordinarily welcoming, the kitchen is fully stocked and the hostel is home to the best bar of Rotterdam: De Witte Aap! Would always come back!
GermanyClean facility and dormitory!! There are supermarket and many bars and restaurants mean everything is around this hostel ☺︎
ThailandPerfect, better than hotels, artistic touch, professional kitchen
NetherlandsThe hotel has good security and a best shared kitchen I've ever seen
FranceThe stylish King Kong Hostel offers everything that a local or global traveller could ask for.... free banana upon check-inn, good quality coffee in the morning and -of course- what you are there for: a comfortable bed (with free sheets and towell, your own light/electrical outlet/ hooks to hang your stuff, huge storage drawer which can be locked), a clean restroom and bathroom in the dorms (they are seperated), a well equiped communal kitchen- dining area and tv-lounge area & last but not least: the company of fellow travellers and very friendly staff.
Netherlandsgreat location, good for the value, will definitely recommend to stay
PolandThe location is in close proximity and within Rotterdam's cool district so expect parties during the night, especially if you stay over the weekend. Apart from the rooms, the bathroom, showers and common areas are really good!
Costa RicaI just write shortly... IT IS THE BEST HOSTEL I'VE EVER BEEN
NetherlandsWe stayed in the private room of the King Kong hostel. The room was beautiful and spacious (a lot more spacious than other hotels in Rotterdam, and for a better price), with a private bathroom and comfortable bed. Everything was very clean and the staff super helpful and polite. The hostel is located in a lively street of Rotterdam with bars and restaurants on the doorstep. The room was located at the front, but we found the street "noise" quite tolerable.
