The Elephant Hostel

Friendly reception, great location, and comfortable and clean facilities.

Pretty awesome place to stay! Staff were great, place was clean, location was convenient. Love everything about my stay!

I had good time. The stuff was wonderful. Was very clean and they provided clean sheets. My only lesson learned is not book in 24 people. One guy was snoring the whole night

Honestly the rooms have a smell and the windows in the room do not open. Its a dorm of 12 people imagine living in it without fresh air. That is the experience. I would only recommend for you to live in this if there is literally no other option. Front staff is helpful hence 2 stars

The room was just cosy, practical and stylish Staff members always there, efficient and kind I didn't stay for breakfast but the dinning room is just beautiful, quiet and pleasant, If I don't need a hotel I wish I can go just to grab my coffee every morning in a place like The Elephant Great job everyone!!!

Probably the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in. It was much like a hotel instead. The building and rooms were in great condition and spotless, very nice aesthetic to the property too. The bathrooms were always very nice and clean, and stocked with paper towels and actual toilet paper, not the super thin cheap stuff. Although you had to make the bed, they provided nice linens, as well as a bath towel. The pods had plenty of space and the bed/pillow were comfortable. Only one outlet, so you’d want an adapter with multiple usb/usb-c’s. Lockers also had plenty of space for luggage, and a shelf for smaller items. I didn’t have time to use it, but there was also a gym which is never seen in hostels. The location was good too, you could easily walk into Amsterdam center within 15-20 minutes. Central train station was about a 25 minute walk. Overall 10/10, would definitely recommend this hostel for anyone looking for a place to stay in Amsterdam.

Excellent all around

Stayed for 8 nights, park and museums near by, as is cafés supermarkets and coffee shops. Tram stops right outside. Postbox for mailing postcarrds right across the street, walking distance to Dam Square...

The staff was very friendly and the hostel is located less than a 15 minute tram ride from central station.

Convenient location and well maintained hostel - rooms were quiet, sufficient privacy, and slept through the night comfortably

Great place, top standard, cozy lounge / café. Comfy beds, clean bathrooms and showers, both spacious. Central location, a great stay. Going back there in a week for a longer stay...

Clean modern and friendly staff.

Clean safe perfect

Very clean and quiet, well decorated. And the staff were very friendly!

This is one of the best Hostels I've ever stayed at. It was very clean, very safe, and with a very cozy atmosphere. The Cafe was open at all times of day, and was quiet and relaxing, with a beautiful decor. The rooms with all the bunks were fairly spacious and accessible. You are situated right next to the Tram line that gets you anywhere into the city (Including the Train Station) Would Recommend to Anyone.

Great atmosphere. The service was fantastic and always there to help

We stayed in the 5 person room, really good value for money!

The hostel is well designed and functional. In the shared (mixed) dorms, the bunk beds had curtains for privacy and large lockers for luggage storage. The bathrooms are clean and the showers have great water pressure. The reception/coworking cafe is very aesthetically pleasing and you get a free drink ticket from the coffee bar :) The only critique is the dorm bedrooms have motion sensor lights at nighttime, which could be distracting if you’re trying to sleep/stressful if you’re trying not to wake people up. Really enjoyed my stay!

Love how easy it is from Centraal

Excellent
