Hostelle - women only hostel

I recently had the pleasure of spending a few days here. I had heard about it from someone else and just had to check it out. What a wonderful, blissful oasis of peace and safety and so much room for guests to do their thing, whether it's preparing a salad or cooking pasta or working on a laptop. Nobody bothering anyone about anything, everyone kind, respectful and accommodating and everyone also taking responsibility for cleaning up after themselves after having prepared a meal. The vending machine prices are remarkable too. I only tried the nuts and fruits but they were delicious and unlike is often the case elsewhere, there was no crazy markup. EUR 1.80. Staff all very pleasant and helpful!

Super safe, amazing set ups for hygiene and doing makeup, beautiful decor and friendly people. Sadly getting to the centre is not very cheap, but the area itself is nice and if you find friends, you can share a taxi. There is a good kitchen and you can save on food too.

Overall 4 stars!!!! So close to being 5 only issue is when I go to the no°1 shower the automatic light sensor doesn't detect me meaning halfway through my shower it went dark. I then had to shower in the dark. As well as location we came in at 11am and it was a little scary with many men in large rowdy groups. But close enough to the station that it's not a trek. However staff and bedrooms were good. Crates under the beds to store all of my stuff. Lovely bathrooms with free feminine products if needed. Didn't use the kitchen but seemed clean and tidy. Nice communal place to sit.

My first ever hostel experience and it did not disappoint. Just a few points, there was no hot water in bathroom, I visited the place in Dec. And missed having the hot water for face wash and hand wash. Mattresses were old and not in good condition. Staff was super friendly, roommates were nice.

Wonderful and friendly safe space. Would recommend for anyone looking for a shorter and cheaper stay near Amsterdam. Equipped kitchen, lovely staff and roommates. Perfect for students and solo travellers.

Located in a very convenient location which is just around 5 minutes walk to the metro station. I feel safe staying there and the host is very welcoming and helpful. Bed is clean and comfy, toilet and shower area is also big and clean. The common area is cozy too.

I highly recommend Hostelle! Everyone is super friendly, and the amenities are great. The staff were so welcoming and helpful, and they even organize activities a few times a week. Girly decor, and even a room full of lighted vanity mirrors for applying make-up :)

Not a backpackers hostel. We noticed a lot of older/homeless (?) women were staying here. We slept in one of the dorms, but had to move out of there because one of the other women staying there was mentally ill (?), and she was saying a lot of concerning things in the middle of the night. The staff was great at placing us in another room, but concerning that a woman like that was even allowed to stay there. The location is fine, a lot of shops and restaurants. But it felt like quite a poor area, felt a little unsafe at night. The city center was about 30 minutes with public transport, but we didn’t really mind this. The lockers under the beds had big holes in them, so people could potentially just get stuff out from there if they wanted. The kitchen was good, not much space in the fridge though.

What a dump! It was one of the worse experiences I have had with a hostel. I booked it thinking that being an all women everyone would be nice!.. big mistake from the receptionist and the assistant manager everyone was horrible. Unable to provide directions, place is in a shopping center, scary place full of street people asking you for money, area is not well lit and the only light is right in front of the room I was assigned to so all night that light lites up the room. The bar right next to it keeps you awake with drunk people discussions and conversation. I had booked for 2 night but was out of there after the first night, the assistant manager got nasty very argumentative about the things got handle with my reservation. Not worth it. A&O Hostel is only a few minutes away, clean, modern, more perks, toiletries and towel included,nice staff and so much more worth it!!!

I traveled to Amsterdam and wanted an inexpensive option to stay while I was there - I definitely found it here! I stayed within my budget and the hostel was clearly well kept. As a female only hostel, I felt comfortable and in my element sharing my space with other women. The only reason I can't rate it 5 stars is simply due to the location. It's tricky to find at first because it's tucked away in a rather large plaza, but it's relatively close to a train stop, which is awesome. The problem was that there were several people hanging out in the plaza - hanging out, not shopping - so I got a super sketchy vibe. I didn't feel exactly safe walking back and having to pass large, older men, even though there were a few kids playing, it seemed like a low income area, there was trash and graffiti and people under a bridge just behind the plaza. Again, this is the surrounding area so the hostel itself is awesome, but the location not so much.

I booked a room with Hostelle and tested positive for COVID the day before my stay. I didn't request a refund, only a voucher to return another time and they denied my request. I was staying in a 10 person dorm room and if I went, I could infect the entire room (I have a fever of 102'). Their lack of concern for their residents' safety is appalling. I hope this review discourages your booking with them.

Lovely accommodations, easy to book, eclectic rooms, clean and exactly what I needed! Also perfectly situated near the train station and shops. I wanted to check off "stay at a hostel" from my bucket list and I'm so happy I found Hostelle. They had the best reviews on Travel Advisor and easy reservations through Booking.com. The kitchen was the bomb for a vegan home chef like me, the rooms were lovely, artwork was delightful and the accommodations were really clean. They have bikes for rent and a private outdoor area when you need to get outside and feel some grass under your feet. Couldn't ask for anything more! I'll definitely be returning.

I found this hostel using another website (sorry Yelp, I was cheating on you). I appreciated that this was an all-female hostel. Now, come on, yes, I love boys, but the honest truth is, they are dirty. And if it isn't a boy I like or love, I am not sure I want to deal with their funkiness just for a few nights when passing through a city. This hostel is clean and very cute. Very girly, lots of pink all around. There is a cool lounge area where you can read, use your comp, lounge and meet other interesting travelers. The girl at the front desk was super nice even though it was crazy busy. She was trying to check a bunch of people in and answer the phone also. I booked for a 4-bed room, but apparently, they overbooked and she only had an 8-bed room for me. I said ok, wasn't a big deal. She also discounted my stay and gave me free breakfast in the morning (normally it is 5 euros). They have a kitchen, so you can store your food and cook. Also, a nice library full of interesting books. Bathrooms are clean and there are many, so no waiting in the morning. I really liked this hostel and when I come thru Amsterdam again, I would consider staying here. But the only problem is it is a bit out of Central Amsterdam. It is easily accessible by train, but still a bit of a pain to get to when it is late at night, so that's why the 4 stars.

Booked two beds in this hostel only a couple of days before we arrived, as we were interrailing, and almost anything else we found was either ridiculously expensive, or waaaay outside of the city. We decided to give this place a shot, as it wasn't too expensive and we could take the metro. While they said check in time is after 2pm, we did not get access to our room until 4pm, as it wasn't ready, which was a bit of a bummer, as we'd just planned to take a shower, and then explore the city. However, the other parts of this hotel weighed up for that minor inconvenience. The staff is very friendly, the hostel is mostly clean (girls are bad at cleaning up after themselves in the morning), and it looks very fresh and fancy. It's located in a smalltown-centre where there are lots of cafes, stores and a Lidl. It's a short way to the metro station Bjilmer Arena (the webpage where we booked said Bullewjik, which is further away). The distance from the city centre isn't a problem for late night partying either, as one can take the nightbus (757 towards Bjilmermeer), which leaves every 30 minutes, and takes about 30minutes to reach Bjilmer Arena. We had a great experience here, and would definietly come back!
