EuroCheapo review print this page

Krakow is full of hostels like Blue Hostel—quite barebones sorts of places where low rates and scant furnishings are the predominant characteristics. For those more interested in saving money than sleeping in style, Blue Hostel should fit the bill.

Blue is one of the smaller hostels in Krakow, with just seven rooms. We looked at a narrow room with light yellow walls, gray wall-to-wall carpets and a bare minimum of furniture. In the retelling, this may sound like a less-than-appealing room, but in fact it is a quite attractive little space. Turquoise folding chairs provide one of the few flashes of color.

An international bevy of student backpackers sets the social tone. The common lounge space looks quite friendly. Location is also good. Green Hostel sits on main artery Westerplatte, which runs along the western side of the Stare Miasto greenbelt.

About the Blue Hostel neighborhood

East of Stare Miasto is the neighborhood just to the east of the Old Town greenbelt, northeast of ul. Starowislna and south of ul. Lubicz. This area is significantly less historically rich than Stare Miasto, but it is nonetheless packed with stately 19th-century buildings, both along Westerplatte and on various side streets. While the district has little in the way of obvious tourist attractions, it's an attractive and quiet neighborhood. The hotels we feature in this area all benefit from being relatively close to Krakow's main train station.
