    As a hostel you are an entry point for tourists and are a representative for the city. The bar underneath Antwerp City Hostel is doing a very bad job in this! My friend was insulted by the waiters. I cannot recommend at all! Disrespectful and rude employees! There are definitely better places where you can have a good time in Antwerp with good service! Even one star is too much!

    Cannot recommend the hostel. The location is great, but everything is very old, kinda dirty and oftentimes the soap was empty in the bathroom and beds aren’t comfortable. I have check out one night earlier and the guy at the reception told me he will accept a request for a refund for the last night, but haven’t gotten any money back ! Also they say they have 24/7 reception, but reception was closed in the morning when I wanted to check out. No chance to get even the deposit for the key card back!!

    I have booked the room. In chat I was informed that reception works 16-20 oclock. I cancelled and booked another one. On a week they took a payment from my card fully. I answered why , in a chat they were rude and unpolite , that they will take the money anyway , if cancellation is not 3 days before check in. They said reception works 16-22 hours and I am saying not true. I had to make a screenshot about 16-20 hours , but they even didn't apologize. I travel a lot and I am working in a hotel , but it is the most awful stuff I ever met

    Great location! A good breakfast for free:) To sum up, in terms of facilities it is a below average one! Any movements of the people from the upper floor creates huge noise due to the wooden ceiling! The rooms and the toilets are not cleaned properly, the bed was very noisy and uncomfortable, from my room I could hear people talking in the common area and even in other rooms loudly enough (I couldn’t sleep and stayed awake at night for 2hrs or so after 12:00 due to these noise), one needs to go one or more floors to reach the shower as the shower rooms are only on the third floor and so on..

    The place is very well located in the city center of Antwerp. It has many sight seeing, as well as bus stop & tramp stop within walking distance. It's a perfect place to party and has a great vibe. Many restaurants and cafe's are located in the vicinity. Prices of the hostel is also reasonable. They also provide lockers for your luggage. The downside of the hostel was the quality of the bed and the washroom & bathrooms were little bit stinky. Also, there was party just outside the hostel till late night which made little difficult to sleep.

    Cheaters and scam star hostel… The Lady at reception (probably owner) charged me 5 Euros as card deposit and when I checked out they pretended to refund those 5 Euros however they again charge me 5 Euros instead the Refund. So in total they overcharged 10 Euros. If you are staying there beware of this scam.

    First of all Hostel is located next to an club, which makes it pretty noisy. Furthermore are the beds very hard and uncomfortable, they are like prison beds. The room is very small, so the beds really are cramped together and and there is also a smell of rubber in the room. The next problem is the the toilet, you have to share one toilet with the entire floor, so with 4 bedrooms. And don’t expect to have a big locker or free towels. The only upside about this place is the location, is pretty fare away from the train station, but in the center of the old downtown. A great alternative is the Yust Antwerpen hostel/hotel, there you can get a perfect hostel bed for 30€, which is 10 out of 10.

  • 1/5 NatĂ lia CabrĂ© M. 5 months ago on Google
    I recently stayed at Antwerp City Hostel with a group of 6, and my experience was far from satisfactory. The noise from the connected nightclub on the ground floor made it impossible to sleep, extending well beyond 4 AM. The lack of basic hygiene in the rooms and bathrooms was disappointing. Customer service was nonexistent - promises of refunds were made, but the owner failed to respond. Additionally, discrepancies in charges and the absence of a €30 refund further marred our stay. A regrettable experience overall.

    I stayed for 6 days and for me everything was very good. The staff is friendly and helpful, cleaning is done every day, good cleanliness. Showers clean and hot. Breakfast is served with care, there is a kettle on hand all day to prepare tea, coffee maker also. The location is also excellent. I didn't have any problems with noise or anything unpleasant. I recommend it and hope to stay here again in the future.

    Unfortunately not the greatest hostel. Located at the Grote Markt, it is as central as it can get which is good and bad: you can walk everywhere, but if there is a party or anything going on it’s very noisy. A lot of rooms in the hostel (like bedroom in the attic, bathrooms etc) smell very damp and old Beds are laid through, very uncomfortable and wrapped in plastic which makes quite a bit of noise. On top of that my room in the attic was very cold since the radiators didn’t seem to work. The bathroom also left up a lot for imagination: only about 50% of the faucets were working, the showers as well as the toilets were old and a bit grim, overall not too clean either. Breakfast was limited in the selection but was alright since it was included in the price. Would not stay here again, staff was friendly though.

    -Uralte Ausstattung: Teppiche in den Zimmern waren wirklich betagt und dreckig, die Matratzen sind mit Gummi überzogen und entsprechend laut. Auch sonst sieht man die Abnutzung mehrerer Jahre... Es war nur eine Toilette und 4 Waschbecken auf knapp 20 Leute in unserem Stockwerk vorhanden. Kein Handtuch im Preis enthalten, dafür kaputte Bettwäsche. Der Preis ist im Vergleich zu anderen Hostels für das Gebotene recht hoch. +Perfekte Lage direkt auf dem Marktplatz von Antwerpen, falls erwünscht weniger als 5 Minuten Fußweg zu den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln und Supermärkten. Frühstück ist ausreichend und im Preis enthalten. Es gibt einen Fahrstuhl.

    Shower was weather regulated and due to the hot weather these days I couldn’t have a shower because the water was steaming hot!!! otter than that really nice hostel, good breakfast and very welcoming. Only wanted to stay for 1 night but liked it so much that I stayed for an extra day. Would definitely visit again :)

    Has the bare minimum but I wouldn’t stay here again or recommend to anyone. The room smelled of melted plastic & seemed to be themed for children. Very few toilets available, lots of outside noise & small lockers for personal items. I didn’t feel particularly safe within the hostel, despite the keycard system and I’m glad I ended up with a lovely group of roommates because otherwise I would have left & looked for other accommodation.

    This was very good stay right next to the famous Grote Market and Infront of the cathedral and close to many attractions. It is about a kilometer from the central station and can go to any attraction from here on foot. The building itself is very old from outside but completely different from inside. It's a good stay and my choice of stay for next time.

    Terrible place to stay. They don't have a curfew, one crazy lad came into the room at 3 am playing music on his phone and fainted in his bed with the music on. Started snoring like a chainsaw. Avoid places where drunk heads can crash in at any time with no front desk service. I threw my money away by staying here.

    They had bedbugs. Me and other 12 girls had to be moved out the room because we were getting bites from bedbugs, and it was clearly not the first time that happened since they knew perfectly what to do and had some special lotion prepared for it. Really disgusting. Never again.

  • 3/5 A K. 10 months ago on Google
    I booked a bed last minute and due to circumstances was not able to check in on time, arrived 5 hours later so basically in the morning, but there was no problem, staff was nice and I even got a free beer when I arrived. The view from the rooms is amazing and I really liked the decor with the twist. The hostel is also a bar and is in busy area so it can be noisy. It was my first stay in a hostel like this since I prefer my own privacy but since I spent there only few hours it was ok. Great for a group of friends who are not planning to sleep much and meet new people. Big thanks to the staff for accommodating me at really late/early hour. đź‘Ť

    Perfect location, clean interior, helpful staff, reasonable breakfast. Overall good quality with this price!! Thank you for your help! I read the comments and it is true that it's so noisy at nights but in our bedroom we closed the windows and there were not so many sounds coming. It was easy to sleep (if you don't have a snoring room mate for sure hahah)

  • 2/5 Colton M. 1 year ago on Google
    Pretty cheap, which is fair because it is a bare minimum hostel. Cheap and flimsy bunk beds and large communal bathrooms. A couple annoying things happened during our two night stay. Check out was at 11am and we were probably on course to be leaving at 11:05, when some employee came in the room and started shooing us out the door. I've never had that happen before and was quite annoying. Also, our key cards randomly stopped working one night at around midnight and we had to call someone to come fix them since they do not have 24/7 reception. When the employee arrived, they didn't even apologize for the inconvenience or anything, and simply looked annoyed that they had to be there.

  • 1/5 SOFĂŤA C. 9 months ago on Google
    - Just 1 toilet per floor. - Only 3 out of 7 sinks worked. - There was no breakfast due to a power shortage and they didn’t offer a discount or a voucher to go somewhere else because it’s a “free” breakfast; but that’s not right because despite they say it’s “free” you’re paying for it when paying the whole price (as it works everywhere). We respectfully complained about it in the reception and the man there (called Exxo) literally insulted us in Italian (thinking we couldn’t understand). Then we came back for check-out and told him not to be disrespectful and the other man there directly insulted us in English. The staff is disgusting, you cannot treat hosts like that (specially when they’re complaining without insulting at all).

    Perfect location. Just near the center. Good breakfast. The place has a bit of funky party vibes. Staff was good. The rooms were nice. Beds were okay. The bathrooms were cleaned but they smelled weird. Still, an overall good experience.

  • 1/5 GlĂłria G. 2 months ago on Google • 4 reviews New
    Dirty sheets, no sound isolation from the discos that are above the hostel, you can't sleep at all, even if you pay more to have more privacy in a 6 person room you will still share the only wc with huge groups and that means broken sinks, dirty sinks all the time. This all makes sense when you talk with the "manager", the lack of customer service, and communication. He was rude and unprofessional admitting these faults are characteristic of the hostel saying "if you read the Google reviews and are bad, it's your fault that you booked" Stay away

  • 5/5 DeeMa B. 2 years ago on Google
    I really enjoyed my stay there, it's at the heart of the city centre. The vibe is really cool and the staff are super nice. I was very happy with the people I met there as well. Now every Hostel experience has to compare to ACH.

  • 4/5 Osama I. 2 years ago on Google
    The location is perfect Staff are nice Breakfast is fair The room is good, I took the upper part of the room and stayed there alone for couple nights Took 4 stars because of the price as well as the upper information Lost a star because of: 1- shower water wasn’t hot 2- no microwave, so I couldn’t reheat my food

  • 5/5 FAN F. 2 years ago on Google
    Love it! The perfect location and the staff are very friendly. There is free breakfast, and the food is fresh. The shower is clean and always with hot water.

  • 5/5 Holly S. 2 years ago on Google
    It's not often one finds a hostel like this one. Amazing value for price that would be even excluding the free breakfast. Everything is clean and the location is more than ideal. But above all the staff makes this place deserve more than 5 stars. I'm afraid I didn't catch his name but from reception to breakfast he runs around even on his time off to make sure that every guest has the best stay possible. A special thanks to you for making travellers experiences as near as perfect as it could possibly be.

  • 5/5 Daniel M. 2 years ago on Google
    Surprisingly excellent hostel. You could not wish for a better location, inside one of the most beautiful buildings in the historical center (but beware, 15 to 20 minute walk from the central train station). My bed was very comfortable, and I could hear no noise from the bars across the street. Friendly guests and staff, clean, and with a good free breakfast (cereal, toast, cold cuts, cheese, jams). There is no bar on site, but the breakfast room doubles as a communal space in the afternoon and evening. No 24-hour reception, but a system is in place for late check-in/out.

  • 1/5 Richard M. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Perfect, but it seems to me like fraud. Have 2 nights booked, the surprise came when I came through the entrance. It smelled of train station toilet, which was further intensified by standing in the hallway fragrance bottles and room sprays which was sprayed every few minutes. At the front desk everyone seems to have the boss canceled my reservation in front of my eyes. And suddenly I should put it bar on the counter. From the booked 4 bed room I was suddenly in a room with 22 beds. I can not say if there are 4 beds. Breakfast in the basement with very loud music I felt like a disco. The boss bottom drawer. I call that a scam and you should think about it personally. Fraud to tourists. After I wanted to clarify the whole thing in the morning again I was there still very quiet. Was I asked by the boss? ACH Hostel is urgent to avoid. (Original) Lage Perfekt, doch kommt es mir wie betrug vor. Habe 2 nächte gebucht, die überraschung kam als ich durch den Eingang kam. Es hat nach bahnhofstoilette gerochen, was noch verstärkt wurde durch im flur stehende Duftflaschen und Raumsprays die alle paar minuten versprüht wurde. An der Rezeption allen anschein nach der Chef hat vor meinen Augen die Reservierung storniert. Und plötzlich sollte ich es Bar auf die Theke legen. Aus dem gebuchten 4 Bett-zimmer lag ich plötzlich in einem Raum mit 22 Betten. Ob es 4 Bettenzimmer gibt kann ich nicht sagen. Frühstück im Keller mit sehr lauter Musik ich kam mir vor wie in einer Disco. Der Chef unterste Schublade. Ich nenne so etwas Betrug und man sollte darüber nachdenken personäl durchzugreifen. Betrug an Touristen. Nachdem ich das ganze in der Früh nochmal klären wollte ich war da noch sehr ruhig. Wurde ich von dem Chef hinaus gebeten. ACH Hostel ist dringend zu meiden.

    In the heart of Antwerpen at Grote Mark, this place is not only affordable but has a great vibe to it; very friendly personel (Heads up to Philip super available, funny and friendly receptionist), the hostel is clean and has a wonderful lounge area where you are offered a free breakfast, and a wonderful dose of reggae music every morning❤️ 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

  • 3/5 Yawvaar I. 1 year ago on Google
    Specifically booked a 5 bed mixed dorm (5th floor) in their website as they don't have bunk beds. On check-in I was assigned a 4th floor higher density room with bunk beds. No apologies or recognition from the receptionist that they can't deliver the booking I made. Clean toilets. Mattresses are covered with a plastic sheet which makes them non breathable. 20 minutes walk from train station and flix bus stop.

  • 4/5 Rob W. 1 year ago on Google
    Clean, staff pretty nice, decent prices for antwerp. Included breakfast was good for a hostel. Was unlucky with a snoring guy in the room but that is a risk with hostels.

  • 5/5 Emil I. 1 year ago on Google
    The rooms are simple and small, but that is what you would expect for that price. The staff is polite and friendly and the whole place is clean and cosy. The location is great - close to the landmarks and local shops. I recommend it if you are fine with sleeping in a room with strangers

  • 1/5 Cynthia C. 1 year ago on Google
    This is the worst and most noisy hostel I have ever been. It is above a club and the music is playing out loud the whole night. The facilities are awful too, including bed and shower. I wish I can give zero star.

  • 1/5 Victoria I. 1 year ago on Google
    Didn’t even manage to stay here. We were making a big booking but the workers in the hostel never actually made a reservation for us so we were left with no place to stay in the end. If you plan to come, make sure that you actually have a room and you are not surprised like we were because it seems there is no organisation at all

  • 4/5 Kim B. 1 year ago on Google
    A good experience overall. Pros: great location, hot showers, locked girls showers, plenty of showers and sinks, basement space is nice because you can work and call down there, windows open, small lockers available, clean and smelled nice, friendly staff, awesome breakfast! Cons: only one bathroom per floor… many a potty dance in the morning… I could feel the bed rails through the mattress underneath me (but it didn’t bother me too much), no large luggage locker/cage in room, the timer button for the shower was short (15seconds).

  • 3/5 Mirjam K. 10 months ago on Google
    Old school hostel with everything you need as a traveller. There is a free breakfast and space to leave luggage. The breakfast room serves as a common area and there are some couches through out the hostel. It wasn't particularly clean and the toilets are rare and not gendered. If you're looking for a bright and modern hostel, ACH is not for you. If you're looking for a cheap place to chill in the heart of Antwerp, this a great choice.

  • 1/5 Miguel Sanchez M. 5 months ago on Google
    Horrible experience. We couldn't sleep because there is a club in the same room as the reception! (You can check it in the map) Unbelievable! Moreover, when we complained to the hostel service, nobody took care of our complain, they were impolite to us and refused to contact the manager. This place is not an option to stay in, I really hope they fine them so that no-one else has this experience ever.

  • 1/5 Markel Benito S. 5 months ago on Google
    Terrible experience! We couldn’t sleep because we were next to the disco which is also part from the building. Apart from that, the building is really old and the service very poor. Please don’t be stupid and don’t come

  • 1/5 Florian N. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Our stay was unfortunately canceled by Corona. The hostel assured us that we only had to pay the down payment because we couldn't even start the trip. Two weeks ago we were still forced to pay the entire cost of the trip. Absolute cheek! (Original) Unser Aufenthalt wurde durch Corona leider abgesagt. Das Hostel hat uns versichert, dass wir nur die Anzahlung bezahlen mĂĽssen, da wir die Reise ja auch garnicht erst antreten konnten. Vor zwei Wochen wurden wir dann trotzdem gezwungen die gesamten Kosten fĂĽr die Reise zu bezahlen. Absolute Frechheit!

  • 4/5 Alberto Luiz S. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Nice place, very well centralized, close to several sights. The room is warm (I went in winter), the bed comfortable, the bad thing is not having towels (have to rent). The flow time of the shower could be longer, it has to be tightening. The downside is you come out time is check-in / check-out at another location (not far, but uncomfortable). Overall the hostel is clean and organized I recommend. (Original) Lugar legal, muito bem centralizado, perto de vários pontos turísticos. O quarto é quente (fui no inverno), a cama confortável, o ruim é não ter toalhas (tem que alugar). O tempo de vazão da ducha poderia ser mais, tem que ficar apertando. O ponto negativo se você chega fora do horário é fazer o check-in/check-out em outro local (não é longe, mas desconfortável). No geral o hostel é limpo e organizado, recomendo.

    Well run. Challenges are two. You go up amongst the restaurants and entrance is not obvious. Unless you look towards the second third floor! Noises in the square facing side until 3am as it is above 2 bars. Hear plate clanging and voices echoing. Gorgeous view. 5€ deposit is refunded at checkout with key return. Breakfast included coffee tea milk cereal bread basic fruit. Overall good experience but would stay Cathedral side next time more quiet place.

    Good hostel although it may get loud at night due to the karaoke bar across the street. Good facilities although the showers smell a bit. Okay breakfast. Not much of an atmosphere.

  • 1/5 Lobke H. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Room was unhygienic there had to be cleaned, so to speak, but did not happen in the 3 days we were there. Toilets ditto ... It was stated on the website that there was a bar but this was not in use conclusion no drink as we were in the hostel also the vending machines were not in use. They were working in the basement where the bar was, this was not notified to us in advance and caused a lot of noise. In the room itself the fellow guests were not aware that people are trying to sleep at night. When we arrived and unpacked our conveniences and made our bed to explore Antwerp, everything seemed fine until we came back and my bed was taken by someone else. Certainly not pleasant if you want to go to sleep after a long day at night and you first have to find your convenience. The breakfast included in the price was also a disappointment the bread tasted dry and old the toppings were warm and did not taste properly. We are certainly not coming back what should be a pleasant 3 day was a big disappointment, we could not go home fast enough! Unfortunately.. (Original) Kamer was onhygiënisch er moest zogezegd nog gekuist worden maar is in de 3 dagen dat we er waren niet gebeurd. Toiletten idem... Er stond op de website dat er een bar was maar deze was niet in gebruik conclusie geen drank als we in het hostel waren ook de automaten waren niet in gebruik. Ze waren aan het werken in de kelder waar de bar was dit werd ons op voorhand niet meegedeeld en zorgde voor veel geluidsoverlast. Op de kamer zelf waren de medegasten zich er niet van bewust dat mensen proberen te slapen snachts. Toen we er toekwamen en ons gerief uitpakten en ons bed opmaakten om Antwerpen te verkennen leek alles in orde totdat we terug kwamen en mijn bed ingenomen was door iemand anders. Zeker niet aangenaam als je na een lange dag snachts doodop wil gaan slapen en je eerst je gerief moet vinden.. Het ontbijt dat inbegrepen is in de prijs was dan ook nog een teleurstelling het brood smaakte droog en oud het beleg was warm en smaakte niet naar behoren. Wij komen zeker niet terug wat een aangename 3 daagse moest worden werd een grote teleurstelling, we konden dan ook niet snel genoeg naar huis! Jammer..

    Perfect location in the old town, there is some outside noise at night but that is not their fault. Great atmospheric old place. High quality dorms and bathrooms. Good breakfast included.

    Amazing location right next to the square which is also helpful if you are planning on taking a tour of the city. Great access to outlets next to the bed and they provided medium-sized lockers in the room. Unfortunately, you must bring your own lock. I felt comfortable enough to walk on the room floor with my bare feet. It is definitely apparent that they tend to cater to youth based on the cute chalk signs they have. They provided a decent breakfast with bread, cheese, meat, liege waffles, apples, etc. I would happily return again

    (Translated by Google) Right in the center. If you are lucky, a great bed. We were 40 women, it was fine for this. Disadvantage: showers not available after 10 pm. Breakfast wss fine, not special. (Original) Midden in het centrum. Als je geluk hebt, een prima bed. Wij waren met 40 vrouwen, hiervoor was het prima. Nadeel: douches na 10 uur s avonds niet beschikbaar. Ontbijt wss prima, niet bijzonder.

    From the beginning my experience with this hostel was quite bad. When I arrived, I was given a key to 18-bed dormitory, while my reservation clearly stated a 10-bed dormitory. There was only one place free, on the top of bunk bed, but this bed had no ladder to climb to the top (every other beds had one). The guy on the reception promised to do something about it the next day (and yep, he did nothing). The next day I had to explain the whole thing to another person at the reception. She found someone to finally put a ladder on my bed. But couldn't explain me why my reservation was changes without notice nor she could find any solution to have a calmer room. At that point I've already started to get some weird "allergy" on my hands, but I didn't pay much attention to it. I realized what that was the next day, after the check out. Cause this "allergy" appeared also on my back, on my shoulder and my legs. I was actually bitten by bedbugs!!! I've informed the hostel about them but didn't get any reply (yet). Now I'm praying that I didn't bring these little pests home in my luggage. I've been to a lot of hostels around Europe, but this one is by far worst one. UPDATE: I accidentally found out that I paid for this hostel twice. I was debited right after my reservation AND was asked to pay again upon my arrival to the hostel. After a few exchanges with the hostel, they paid me back, saying "everybody makes mistakes". I was lucky to check my bank account... I also asked for a full refund because of the bugs bites, but this demand was refused. They offered me "a free stay on my next visit" which is laughable cause I'll never stay in this again.

    (Translated by Google) Not recommendable. We booked a room when we arrived but only one room was available. The staff was not helpful. We could choose between two options: 1 we were able to cancel completely (comment from the receptionist: then drive home) 2 we got a room eight bed room in which we had to sleep with 15 people. Four of us had to sleep on air mattresses. We did not get a discount (Original) Nicht zu empfehlen. Wir haben ein Zimmer gebucht, als wir angekommen sind war allerdings nur ein Zimmer frei. Das Personal war wenig hilfsbereit. Wir konnten zwischen zwei Optionen wählen: 1 wir konnten komplett stornieren (Kommentar der Rezeption: dann fahrt doch nach Hause) 2 wir haben ein Zimmer achtbett Zimmer bekommen in dem wir mit 15 Personen schlafen mussten. Vier von uns mussten auf Luftmatratzen schlafen. Einen Rabatt haben wir nicht bekommen

    Gute Lage, aber wer wert auf Sauberkeit legt und genügend Waschbecken, die funktionieren, ist hier nicht gut aufgehoben. Achso und fast vergessen, wer wert auf erholsamen Schlaf legt, sollte es meiden! Die Wände sind dünn und direkt unter dem Hostel ist ein Club, der bis 4 Uhr so laut Musik spielt, dass man kaum schlafen kann. Man spürt den Bass und Ohrstöpsel helfen auch nichts.
