After bad experiences in Krakow hostels, I decided to stay at Flamingo for my last couple nights in Krakow. Flamingo Hostel is the highest rated and most popular hostel, so I thought it was a must to try. It's pricey, but in an excellent location. You are given sheets upon arrival and have to make your own beds, which is... More

I stayed one night in Flamingo Hostel, I'm absolutely delighted with my stay. The hostel couldn't be more central (near the main square), perfectly clean and the staff members I met (Monika and Magda) are absolutely lovely :-) Next time I go to Krakow Flamingo Hostel will be my number 1 choice for sure.

Excellent location and very friendly, helpful staff! Clean, nice and great atmosphere! As soon as we stepped into Flamingo, we were greeted then drawn out a plan for our next three days in Cracow. It was very helpful. The rooms, bathrooms and kitchen were clean, and all of the staff were kind and full of good tips. Hostel is located... More

The hostel is located right off the main square in Krakow. It's nice and clean and the breakfast is better than in most hostels in Europe. I stayed in a private double room and it was decorated nicely. The common room is a good place to meet people. The only problem was that there was no hot water in the... More

Stayed in this hostel for 3 nights, early January. Had a private room, was very impressed with the location as its a stones throw away from the centre square. Our room was lovely and clean, staff were very friendly and great to ask for advice for things as cheap eats, supermarkets and questions about tours (auschwitzz and salt mines) etc... More

We stayed as 4 girls in flamingo hostel in September whilst interrailing around eastern Europe and this hostel was by far the most fun out of everywhere we stayed. There was always something going on and was easy to meet people, and its location was perfect for going out and sight seeing as it is right on the main square.... More

Like the other reviews the location is amazing...almost worth choosing the hostel on location alone for sightseeing and partying. However the hostel itself does not have a great atmosphere. The staff were not helpful and often were not able to be found. My bed linen did not fit the bed. The power outlets did not work on a lot of... More

My husband and I stayed at the Flamingo Hostel for 3 nights in a private double room. The hostel offers breakfast each morning and a lot of help with any activities or things to do while visiting. The location was amazing, just steps from the main square.
