    I stayed for 2 nights in this hostel and I'm still confused about it: the reviews are so awesome that I was a bit disappointed. Pros: -friendly staff - nice common room; - nice backyard; - very affordable. Cons: - waaaaay to far from the city center and located in a residential area where there is nothing to do; - it was so hot in the dorm: no A/c just two very noisy fans; - not enough bathroom/WC per person; - the breakfast is free but super basic and cheap...

    Kabas is a new hostel and all of its facilities reflect that. It's very clean, the beds are super comfortable, and the staff are particularly kind abs helpful - you can feel their enthusiasm for the city. Breakfast was tasty as well - they provide fresh eggs from their chickens. It's a little bit out of the main areas so it's fairly quiet as well. I really enjoyed my stay and should I return to Antwerp will more than likely be reserving a bed here!

    Cozy, affordable, clean. Breakfast was tasty (cereal, bread etc) and the hens in the backyard were cute. There was no traffic noise etc and the center although couple of kilometers away was still on walking distance. Staff was kind and helpful!

    I was a volunteer in the Kabas Hostel for 4 weeks, and I had the best time of my life! Bart (the owner and worker at the Hostel), is the sweetest person in the world, he will help you with anything you need and always with a smile in his face. Everything is always clean and tidied, the rooms are very quiet, comfortable and clean. The living room is super cozy, you can watch whatever you want in the television (always having good discernment of course), have a nice meal at the shared tables, inside and outside, at the small and charming garden they have, with 3 chicken at the back! The Hostel is perfectly located where in a 30 minutes walk you are already in the center of the city, and in your way there you won't get tired or bored because of the beautiful city, that has in every corner impressive churches, small castles and so on! (It was super impressive for me at least, because I don't live in Europe and am not used to that hehe). All I can express is my gratitude for that amazing place and all the amazing people it came with! I would recommend it a million times to anybody! Don't think twice, I can assure you it's your best option :) Greetings from Brazil, and I hope to go back soon :)

    Beautiful hostel. Very clean and copy. Big rooms and helpful staff. You can have free coffee all day and the breakfast is great: eggs from their own hen!

  • 5/5 Maren M. 4 years ago on Google • 122 reviews
    Beautiful and clean hostel with a small garden and very well-equipped kitchen. Breakfast is included in the price and is very rich for a hostel. Very family atmosphere. This hostel has everything that an ideal hostel has for me. I can only recommend everyone to spend their time in Antwerp there.

    This place was great, we hired an 6 person room with 5 so we got it for ourselves. It was clean, cheap and cozy. The people were kind to everyone and let you do a lot as you pleased. There also was free coffee.

    I absolutely loved staying at this Hostel. The prices were amazing, the staff members were beyond friendly and accommodating. We played games with other hostel members and staff members, shared some drinks and laughs... The staff members even did our laundry for us! And the best part is that they have chickens you can hang out with (shout out to Frankie and Jerry). This Hostel/Antwerp was one of the top highlights of my trip, and if I come back to Antwerp again, I will for sure be staying at the Kabas Hostel! I highly recommend!

    Nice and clean rooms. Friendly owner. The area is not the best, it took me 18 min. walking to the inner center of the city. The traffic in front of the house is loud in the morning. The breakfast is good including the eggs, but not a big selection. But I would stay there a second time definitely.

  • 3/5 Stéphane D. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very good to put down his suitcases. But not really to rest. Very poorly soundproofed. And a shower room for a lot of people. Now for the price, it's very reasonable. (Original) Très bien pour poser ses valises. Mais pas vraiment pour s'y reposer. Très mal insonorisée. Et une salle de douche pour beaucoup de personnes. Maintenant pour le prix, c'est très raisonnable.

    (Translated by Google) Hostel a little away from the tourist center and the train station, but has all the amenities that a hostel can have. Nice and young atmosphere where to rest after a joranada visiting the city (Original) Hostel un poco alejado del centro turístico y de la estación de tren, pero tiene todas las comodidades que un hostel puede tener.

  • 5/5 Hugo Gómez A. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) We chose this hostel by chance and the truth is that we were very lucky. We were in the private room (the rest are shared) and it was very spacious and quiet. The bathrooms, although shared, were very very clean. What we liked most were the common areas, especially the kitchen, very spacious for cooking without problems. Do not forget to say hello to the chickens in the yard, they stole our hearts ? By the way, the location is great, about 15 minutes walk from the center and has a supermarket directly opposite. (Original) Elegimos este hostel por casualidad y la verdad es que tuvimos mucha suerte. Estuvimos en la habitación privada (el resto son compartidas) y era muy amplia y tranquila. Los baños, aunque son compartidos, estaban muy muy limpios. Lo que más nos gustó fueron las áreas comunes, sobre todo la cocina, muy amplia para cocinar sin problemas. No olvides salir a saludar a las gallinas del patio, nos robaron el corazón ? Por cierto, la localización está genial, a unos 15 minutos andando del centro y tiene un supermercado justo enfrente.

    (Translated by Google) Atmospheric hostel, there is a patio with live hens. The rooms are small, steep stairs, small cells for personal belongings. (Original) Атмосферный хостел, есть внутренний дворик с живыми курочками. Номера небольшие, крутая лестница наверх, маленькие ячейки для личных вещей

  • 5/5 Jan van B. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Nice hostel with good accessibility from CS. We arrived at the hostel in 30 minutes and were able to check in until 9 pm on Friday. The host was friendly and welcoming and the travelers at the hostel for the most part international. There was a pleasant relaxed atmosphere and the hostel was nicely decorated and had excellent facilities. Good bathroom and toilet, lots of games, nice living room and, not unimportantly, a good mattress. The location is great. It is recommended to rent a bicycle at Antwerp Central Station (€ 4 per day). The best way to do this is centrally because you need a credit card via the internet. (Original) Leuk hostel met goede bereikbaarheid vanaf CS. We zijn in 30 minuten bij het hostel aangekomen en konden tot 9 uur 's avonds op vrijdag inchecken. De host was vriendelijk en gastvrij en de reizigers in het hostel voor het grootste deel internationaal. Er hing een prettige ontspannen sfeer en het hostel was gezellig ingericht en had prima faciliteiten. Goede badkamer en wc, veel spelletjes, leuke woonkamer en niet onbelangrijk een goed matras. De locatie is prima. Aanrader is om op Antwerpen Centraal een fiets te huren (€4 per dag). Je kunt dit het beste doen op centraal omdat je via internet een creditcard nodig hebt.

    (Translated by Google) I loved the hotel. Very nice people, a great shared kitchen, Bart, the owner, super attentive and in fact you make friends right away, we even dined one day all together even though we barely knew each other. I felt at home from the first day. Of course I will return. (Original) Me encantó el hotel. Gente simpatiquísima, una cocina compartida genial, Bart, el dueño, súper atento y de hecho haces amigos en seguida, incluso cenamos un día todos juntos aunque apenas nos conocíamos. Me sentí como en casa desde el primer día. Desde luego volveré.

    (Translated by Google) It's a hostel pass. It is somewhat far from the center of Antwerp and the train station, although not an outrage. It has everything a site like this needs. Rooms very well maintained and clean, the bathroom more of the same, a living room with television and playstation for the dead times. In addition, you have at your disposal a large kitchen with oven, stove, micro, sandwich maker, etc. And finally a patio with grass and chickens where you are in luxury. 100% recommendable!! Ps: the workers are very kind and nice :) (Original) Es una pasada de hostal. Está algo alejado del centro de Amberes y de la estación de tren, aunque no una barbaridad. Tiene todo lo que un sitio como este necesita. Habitaciones muy bien cuidadas y limpias, el baño más de lo mismo, un salon con televisión y playstation para los ratos muertos. Además, tienes a tu disposición una amplia cocina con horno, fuegos, micro, sandwichera, etc. Y por último un patio con hierba y gallinas donde se está de lujo. 100% recomendable!! Ps: los trabajadores son muy amables y majos :)

    Highly recommended for those who want to explore Antwerp on a budget. Price-quality ratio cannot be disputed and therefore a place I will definitely return to.
