The Flying Pig Uptown
Vossiusstraat 46, Oud Zuid, 1071 AJ Amsterdam, Netherlands – Great location - show map
The social spaces that it's possible to have in the hostel, amazing. The location was to close to the Van Gogh museum that's also incredible.

Very nice vibe. Met some fun travelers who we went to techno Tuesday with. The smoke lounge always has people you can meet and chat with. Staff was very nice. Room was nice, not too crowded, with sink and mirror in room, cool wall decor. Great location - can walk right into downtown.

Atmosphere was very good, friendly staff and nice bar downstairs. Perfect location.

Location was really close to the museum and staff was helpful!

As soon as I walked in I felt the good vibe of the place. The staff was awesome! Super friendly and helpful. They have a really fun bar with snacks. Good times, and a great way to meet people. This location is in a quiet street, which felt nice after being out in the middle of it all.

The staff is absolutely amazing:) The beds are quite comfy. And the location is great: right near beautiful par, next to museums and a walking distance from the downtown

The staff was super helpful and kind! The beds where comfy and warm.

The room is dark so you can sleep any time. The smoking room is helpful.

Outstanding very clean hostel in the heart of Amsterdam. About 5 minutes walking to main museums - Rijksmuseum, Slotetdijk, Van Gogh. Very clean and safe. Guests are well-behaved and do not disturb each other

This hostel is an awesome place to meet people, very laid back, friendly staff, and is located in an excellent location.
