It is a little far from the city center. I stayed for 2 nights. The hostel amenities are very good. The bed is new. The kitchen was really nice. The shower is clean. The shared central room is huge. The only weird thing is that it doesn't have a receptionist. I was locked in and I wanted to take the... More

Just checked out of El Hostel yesterday and it was a wonderful stay! Firstly, this is not your average hostel. This is the largest 'hostel' I have ever seen and beautifully decorated. It's 4 stories high and is very very roomy. The entire place was 100% immaculate throughout out entire stay. They've got a slightly Renaissance, rustic, colorful, open spaced... More

Clean room with nice big bathroom with plenty of hot water. Small but sufficient self service breakfast. Location was close to the Warsaw Jewish sights and two tram stops from the city center. A bit noisy, but what else to expect from a hostel.

The common room looks amazing and is very comfy with all your neccesities (PC/TV/books), the bathrooms are clean and colorful and it's never... More

Perfect hostel to enjoy a stay in Warsaw. Really friendly and helpfull staff, and the place is kept clean 24/7. We didn't have a shared bathroom, but the shared one was the most beautiful one i've ever seen in a hostel. The common room has a really nice atmosphere - the renaissance like style furniture really does the thing. The... More

If you want to get not only the typical tourist experience but are looking for something more, some "non-touristic" attractions, this is the place to stay. The hosts know all the “hidden gems” of Warsaw, and are happy to share their secrets. The place has great atmosphere, rooms are clean, with lots of space and air. Kitchen is big, with... More
