The Antwerp Student Hostel

Cat Russell★★★★★★★★★★4.05 months ago

Basic chill hostel. Cheap and has everything you need. Location is near the central train station and opera metro and tram stops so it’s easy to get around. There’s a street with casinos nearby, so it’s easy to get late night food, especially if North African/Mediterranean is your favorite. Chinatown and a grocery store are also easy walking distance by the train station. With the window cracked open for ventilation there is some highway noise but it is quiet enough for a good night’s sleep. Our private room has a large table for working and en-suite bath. The fan doesn’t work in the bathroom and the shower head is broken but usable. The two twin bed configuration is convenient and the comforter isn’t too hot (in December). You can turn off the radiator and crack the window for air. They are strict about no smoking, and use fragrance free laundry detergent on the linens. Our private room was clean and didn’t smell. In the common area, there is an efficient double kitchen that is free to use, eating and study rooms, and a quiet bar that sells breakfast in the morning and hot chocolate, beer, and wine until 9:30.

We came here after the Neighborhood concert. It was almost midnight but we were able to check in pretty fast. Rest of the night Guy kept us company downstairs since we didn’t want to go to bed and we had a lovely night chatting about a lot of different things. He is awesome, kind and fun. It made our entire night! It was such a memorable night for us. Thank you for everything!

The staff is really friendly and helpful. Room of four was basic and clean, only hand soap was missing but there is soap in the shower so you can use it. There are lockers in the room for valuables. The kitchen has a lot of space and the common areas have books and games as well as good tables with plugs for studying/working, for example. Location is also great. Would recommend.

The room was not great. There was no ac and the window barely opened. The drains were all clogged. However the staff was so nice especially the night manager. This guy was so nice, helpful and so genuine. The hospitality was great and it’s placed perfectly in the city.

Great hostel in Antwerp!! The location was awesome and the staff was sooo friendly!! Would definitely recommend. Felt very safe at the female dorm :) Rooms were a bit small, but it's to be expected, everything was clean ans the common areas were good! The lockers were definitely small, but important items may fit
