Hostels in Noord-Holland, Netherlands

The location is about a 10–15 minute walk from Amsterdam Central Station. The check-in desk is located deep inside a bar, which makes it a bit difficult to find. There is no elevator, so guests with heavy luggage should be careful, as carrying bags up the stairs can be inconvenient and unsafe

The accommodation is clean and tidy, and the location is convenient, making it perfect for young people. You just need to take a free ferry to Amsterdam Central Station, which is very comfortable and close to the seaside, offering a refreshing and relaxing experience.

I haven’t stayed in a hostel in Europe for a long time but I thought The Bee Hostel was great. Check in process was easy and staff are friendly. You get a free beverage voucher upon check in. The hostel didn’t feel crowded despite the dorms having 8 beds. The dorms have air conditioning which was a pleasant surprise. When there aren’t people shuffling around the dorms are dead quiet. Only things that could be better is the ventilation and water pressure in the showers.

I had a lovely stay at Generator. If your goal is to meet people, this is a great choice. It's a very social hostel, and during the weekend I stayed, there was a party going on from the basement all the way up to the first floor. It created a fun atmosphere, and the staff were all lovely and welcoming. However, if your priority is getting a good night's sleep, this might not be the best option. I stayed in a 6-bed dorm with two triple bunk beds, and the room felt quite cramped, so you could hear almost every movement. The large storage drawers under the beds were large, but they were also quite noisy whenever someone opened or closed them. And I told you about those parties right? You could still hear the music from the room late into morning.

The hostel is in a good location out of the centre, it's an easy tram ride in to Centraal with very frequent trams. You get what you pay for, it's cheap and cheerful but very good value for budget accomodation just a short trip from Amsterdam city centre. The beds were very comfortable, the room was larger than expected and very airy as we were in an attic room and all the windows opened. The stairs were a bit treacherous, very steep and winding but a nice feature of an old traditional building. The showers and facilities were fine, kept clean by other travellers and staff and the kitchen was fine too. I would definitely stay here again for cheap, reasonable accommodation.

I had an amazing stay at this hostel and truly enjoyed every moment. The place was very clean, well-organized, and the rooms were comfortable with everything a traveler might need. The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming, making it easy to meet other guests and feel at home. The staff were incredibly kind, always smiling, and ready to help with recommendations or any requests. The location was also perfect, close to public transportation, attractions, and local restaurants. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and affordable place to stay.

The hotel entrance is tiny, and you have to walk through a bar to get to the even tinier elevator. The room itself was also very small. Of course, it's good value for the price, and they even provided two complimentary bottles of water. The shared bathrooms were quite clean, regularly maintained, and had no unpleasant smells. It's small but has everything you need. If you're planning on staying in a hostel, this is a good option. However, if you have a suitcase, I strongly advise against staying here; it's simply too cramped, and you won't even be able to open your luggage. It's definitely more suited for backpackers.

The hotel is about a 15-minute bus ride from the city center. If you take bus number 21 from Amsterdam Centraal and get off at Solebaystraat, it's then a 5-6 minute walk. You can also reach the hotel within a 5-minute distance from Schiphol Airport by taking two trams with a transfer. The surrounding area is quieter, not as crowded or noisy as the city center. But since it's still easily accessible to the center, I was very happy with the peaceful location. The hotel operates somewhat like a hybrid between a hostel and a hotel, with small private rooms. Toilets and showers are shared. There are separate ones for men and women, as well as mixed-use facilities. The rooms, toilets, showers, and shared kitchen area were all very clean. As a solo female traveler, I only needed a place to sleep, and I was very satisfied. The rooms are generally very small and windowless. But aside from that, I didn't experience anything negative. If you're just using the hotel to sleep, it's perfectly adequate. All the staff were very sweet and helpful. It's a good option in terms of value for money.
